So... OpenAI Strawberry this week. It's 100% confirmed. Just got an email from The Information, a (so far) reliable mainstream AI source that has a lot of exclusive access to Sam / OpenAI "Strawberry reasoning model ... due out before the end of this week, including a version that will be in the free tier of ChatGPT" Piece of the email:

As long as you socialize your child properly and have them try out local clubs/sports/events, you’re left with 0 reasons as to why you should place them into public/private school. Just hire tutors, sign them up for online classes, get them addicted to goal setting and accomplishment. Focus on reasoning, emotional intelligence, seeing the world for what it really is, not what is socially or culturally acceptable. They can reason those acceptable practices on their own to see if it fits with their world model. With the route I’m seeing today’s schools (in America, at least), students are a fraction as prepared as they were even a decade ago. And the teachers that remain, whom are accepting of the low pay and abuse, are like tortured souls that unfortunately I wouldn’t want my kids learning from anyway; it’s not the right vibe/environment for the growth necessary to succeed anymore. Nothing can beat 1-on-1 education. And soon, middle-class affordable tutors will become much more available than they already are; I’m sure someone is working on an “Uber for tutors” or whatever. And this isn’t even mentioning the impact AI will have in the next few years of building a curriculum and the one-of-a-kind personalization it will offer to its students. Every penny I make is focused on providing my kids with the best private home school education money can buy, so they don’t have to worry about the mundane, repetitive, silly rules and regulations put in place at every “teaching facility” of today.

you know what scares me the most? there are teenagers - even people in their 20's - who don't know how to use a computer. no, i don't mean coding, or running a distro - they don't know how to use a computer apart from google drive, docs, powerpoint. they do everything on their phone instead.
