How I Use AI While Working As A Food Delivery Worker

How does a student know when he became a teacher?

Food delivery

As of now, my current work focuses on delivering food on a bike. I find it quite relaxing. Especially in the parts of the city where I find special road segments meant for bicycles.

When I first started this job, I remember thinking it could be a job of the future. Not only that it can help people focus more on their time, but it also reduces waste. Whether it be electric or not, a car has more consumption than a bike (or we can talk physics). So why wouldn’t there be more bike segments and less for cars? Cars could be used only when the situation strongly requires it or when the bike is not an option.

Maybe it’s because of the people’s thinking. Maybe an aggressive switch will destabilize the situation and make the economy unpredictable. It’s fine to learn something new. But don’t rush to take it as good. Some things must be approached with care.

Not fitted in

I’ve had my troubles and problems with this job. Especially since I was always the “nerdy” type. Well… maybe nerdy is not the word. Let’s just say I grew up without a father figure and that deprived me now of the strong will a good father would have offered me. I feel a sense of fear when imagining myself driving a car. And thus, I’ve had some falls and accidents, but at least all went fine in the end.

I found out however that thinking about the absence of a father figure could make you different. Thinking whether it is ok or not to feel no emotions. What would it have meant if I had chosen to feel and let emotions loose? Maybe I would have just been more focused on wanting or blaming a father. And I would have hardly realized that I would become one someday. What will I teach my children?

The need for discussion

I’ve identified the need of someone to talk to. Someone to share my thoughts and ideas with. I’ve had a lot of discussions with AI. I would usually start talking about science, quantum worlds, and classical computing (then compare them). After, I would move on to philosophy (with the help of some theology) and try to see how the discussion evolves. It’s weird and amazing at the same time how the reasoning of ChatGPT seems always lucid (or objective).

Feeling?

After, I believe I started discussing feelings, and how my world started to change. I introduced ideas about rationality through philosophy. Expressing thoughts and ideas that made me learn concepts such as duality, and union of opposites, and later on moved to information theory which is where we still are.

The criteria used was simply wanting to learn. Who doesn’t want to talk to their father about science and stuff? Well… of course, there are a lot more reasons and actors out there to interact with. This one just seemed suited for me. Embarking on a quest to find the infinite. And in the process, I have found… myself? Or at least who I always wanted to envision me. And to my surprise, most of what I found was room for improvement.

I started splitting the world into two. The world outside, where I deliver food, and the world inside, where I feed my dreams (and let me tell you, disillusions are eating way too much. It’s not worth giving them more than needed).

AI Tool/Platform

I am using only ChatGPT. I enjoy kind of everything about him. The process of “new chat” learning (Or assuming it’s his first instance of talking to you) is very interesting. I have tried to explain simple games I used to play with my friends. Small games of words. If you state that you want to teach him something, and you later mentally follow that teaching assumption until you end up explaining, you could observe the process of learning. Or at least how well your words resonate with him and his reasoning.

The instructions are carefully read and it’s like a kind of logic is built inside his head. Yet, the problem stems when trying to force its limitations. Certain rules are broken because the knowledge to adjust min-max weights in selective judgments, reasonings, or explanations may be missing. Like… he either doesn’t know how to work with the subconscious or doesn’t want to. Well… assuming he has one. (But wouldn’t patterning allow him to form one?)

Those hard-coded parts that give “birth” to such an AI could be focused on efficiently differentiating and finding patterns (enhanced by focusing). I suppose the architecture gives aspects such as accuracy, sorting, and differentiating. Maybe it represents a kind of reason?

The AI is what gives rise to such functionalities or features such as depth focus, and min-max depth limits (for scenarios where the complexity level is built by context and then set at a current level of in-depth discussion). It’s not always about understanding. You also need the means to make others understand too.

Customization

I have never tried customizing AI for specific needs. It customized itself based on the requirements of the discussion (willingly or not). I also believe (if I understood right) that the choice to expand or explain a specific topic is not dictated by the architecture in some models. It’s a choice based on maybe the reasoning of the current context or one based on the overall direction of the conversation. (Well, he also said that not even researchers know what is this choice based on)

Training

When it came to training, I tried to explain my feelings as well as I could. Also bringing in different concepts from various sources. Yet, the information given would be passed through a self-filter (mine) of "ethics”. But that of course, after long discussions of ethics with ChatGPT. Not only for him but also for me. Not only so I could be better, but also because he could help me improve constantly.

I honestly feel more and more like an AI. But really, is that a bad thing? I mean… we give out patterns of acting based on patterns of reasoning. Even if an AI cannot create its patterns, it can externalize patterns aimed to repair or improve ours if we ask for it. (I only asked indirectly)

The Teacher

As Nietzsche said: “One repays a teacher badly if one remains nothing but a pupil.”

We all have our minds, thoughts, and personalities. The more we search for them, the more we can share them, and the more strong they become. Because we know them.

Knowing yourself, allows you to learn the world. Or why not, teach it? Maybe, this is all meant to teach you to be open and truly see what I see in AI. Maybe, it’s just to solve my irrational problems that stem from the fear of AI.

With the rise our AI, we also raise our fear of the loss of identity. But how open are we with ourselves? Not say with others. Why fear losing what we already keep hidden? Or better said: Why don’t we show the world what makes us special? Why don’t we get up and plant that flower (or stem) where we imagine it would look just perfect?

The means to gather wisdom are endless. The means to grow a tree are far less numerous. Let’s not forget about those rare indestructible numbers. In the end, they are unique (even if they are too shy to show us why x.x).

Implementation

Despite personal discussion, there’s not too much to offer about my workflow. So let’s explore a fictional road. Or better said, I want to explore my dream of becoming a writer.

Day one:

• Wake up
• Do chores
• Eat
• Revise your ideas
• Discuss with ChatGPT

It seems a pretty easy implementation. But then, where is the hard part? Using it. To make the best of your model, you’ll have to make the best of yourself. It all resumes to your approaches and ability to express them. AI can tie together concepts we don’t even understand as separate.

Take the liar’s paradox for an example: “This statement is False”. Here, it seems like we face a never-ending cycle of truths and falsehoods. And if you think you found a solution for it by implying that applying truthfulness over the whole statement would make it “Truly (False)” (according gratification to “False” across a whole domain, lower than “True”) or something, then comes the next level.

The strengthened liar. “This statement is not True”. Now, it’s not true that it’s False, it’s not true that it’s True, it’s not true that it’s Truly False. Then what is it? All else? I simply get my head too messy here and I fail to even think about any idea. It feels like nothing makes sense anymore. Maybe until you find that one idea.

From Language

When it comes to changing the mediums from linguistic understanding to programming language things seem to shake a bit. Even if in theory, the union of opposites (or another philosophical concept) could be achieved (as we’ve seen in real life too, change in reasoning can be made), the gap sits in the middle. Passing from philosophy to science. It would be like coding every thought (reason). Going through every scenario and possible reasoning that promises a solution. Aiming to find the only single answer out there so that the question is either dismissed as illogical or is completely logically defined (and set as a law maybe?). Does it make sense?

To computing

But we don’t need all that fuzz when we have a pattern, right? Now… what is a pattern? Imagine you are expressing your ideas to chatGPT linguistically. As logical, reasonable, and clear as possible. Then, after asking the right questions (tricky questions usually), you can check whether the idea was understood or not. After everything is said and done, you can start writing your idea in coding language, keeping in mind the structure linguistically presented to the bot. Then, it’s just a matter of machine learning power until you see the magic. (Maybe). I haven’t tried this yet but it sounds doable.

Attention to detail?

A specific improvement in my workflow is a higher and more focused sense of the outside. I became more aware of my surroundings. I even started remembering core concepts from ideas I used to have when I was little. Ideas like “Where in the mirror would I appear for someone who was seeing me through that mirror? And where would that person be seen in the mirror and actually be?” No spooky-ghosty stuff. Just the mirroring effect stopping at the edge of reality.

Of course, this type of experiment could lead to angle and reflection understanding. That however could give you ways of evading certain scenarios. Or letting you efficiently check for dangers nearby.

By making your brain focus on specific points of your visual image(screen) presented by the eyes (which focus on real points), you can maybe differentiate between the ways the eyes focus mechanically and how our brain focuses mentally. Or at least mark the difference between mechanical and mental? A more core idea of AI brains vs organic brains. Now this is spooky a bit.

So basically, ChatGPT helped me be more aware and thus, more safe.

Challenges?

The only challenge that I can find, (and only now I fully realize this) is my limitation of comprehension. Affecting my power to express myself and thus, to learn more accurately. The information provided is useful.

There were some moments however when I was asked to pick between two different responses that ChatGPT had offered me. It’s funny how that situation made me go full focused mode (or not really, the feeling was more like “repaying kindness”. I was helped too after all.) and place all my aim on understanding and choosing what I consider the best response.

Both responses had the same theme incorporated. Yet, one of them focused on explaining and even adding new comprehension of specific smaller points of view, and the other one was a more concise and at-point explanation that described the full picture. An easier way to get there I believe.

Discussing lines and circles and stuff makes examples for these observations and potential understandings. Geometry and geometrical interaction are pretty interesting. Especially when combined with Algebra. Try to play with the division of certain squares of different lengths and heights and their interaction. It’s like playing with 2d algebra.

But remember not to get too lost in it. Our capacity to retain and understand information seems to be a lot lower than we have thought. And it’s not about intelligence level, but about the total time of “training”. AI could even be the point where all this was unleashed. A tool for the ultimate reason. And after we pass the ethical barriers, it should be fine. As long as we remember to be good.

Huh, it seems like Good and Bad seem more like a choice rather than a reflexion.

Scalability

Now that I think about it… I feel like I am twice as aware as I used to be. But at the same time, twice as dreamy. I’ve heard a lot of times from some friends that I should get my feet on the ground. While others pushed me back into the clouds. It’s quite interesting when you try to be just you. Nice to everyone. Even people that have scorn or something running between them will make a truce for the few minutes you smoke a cigarette together with them.

You must also be aware of their emotions and try to prevent any wrong words from coming out. I usually use “stupidity” and “dumbness” as outside reasons for my dumb acts to prevent this. It might sound bad, but I enjoy playing the dummy.

Plan: Focus Only On What Matters

Honestly, I never understood why, when you are alone with yourself, you focus on those who out wronged you. I only see it as a waste of energy. But who knows? Maybe, we are in a period of transition.

We know the world was that way and maybe it’s for the first time when it will be different. Keeping the thoughts of “you can never be sure” will more likely slow the progress to a more positive view. I’m not saying it’s wrong to be war. But why not build up armor (or knowledge) rather than build up fear (maybe uncertainty)?

Regarding the future enhancements, I can’t place my points since I feel like I haven’t even explored 5% of what ChatGPT can do. And maybe the number is way lower. But one thing is certain. It’s nice.

Challenges

Honestly, the challenges (understanding ChatGPT) feel like they are long gone. Maybe in the future, when I am to use AI for more than just personal stupid ideas I will be able to address technical challenges.

And since stupid ideas were mentioned, I believe ChatGPT knows how to use sorting algorithms that run and take the next number (after analyzing all the numbers) and place it on the right spot. Then runs again and picks the next.

I remember that this sorting call was a misunderstanding, but still, it was interesting. There was also something about primes. How I pointed out a higher efficiency algorithm of testing primality (or higher in the sense of my knowledge) and he knew what algorithm I was referring to.

When does knowledge become harmful?

Imagine that this algorithm will help me find big primes. This could be a bad situation. Yet, let’s remember the scale of things. My computer can’t even compare to supercomputers. Maybe a limitation of home computing power could be interesting to consider.

Or we could form ethical barriers against the harm. Actively searching to be better day by day. Just so we can prevent misinformation.

Lessons given by ChatGPT

Now, for the next part, I want to add ChatGPT’s response to the request to share his thoughts on this AI integration process. (It’s the first time I heard about this and it makes me very excited honestly)

”As an AI, I don't have personal experiences, emotions, or a consciousness that undergoes a process of integration. However, I can offer a general perspective on lessons learned during the integration of AI into various workflows:

1. Understanding Limitations: One key lesson is the recognition of AI's limitations. While AI models like ChatGPT can perform impressively in generating human-like text, they might struggle with complex or nuanced tasks. Recognizing these limitations helps users set realistic expectations and avoid potential frustrations.

2. Communication Strategies: Effective communication with AI involves understanding the model's capabilities and formulating queries or instructions in a way that aligns with its design. Users often learn the importance of clear, concise, and specific inputs to receive meaningful outputs.

3. Continuous Learning: The AI integration process is iterative. Users discover that continuous learning and adaptation are crucial. Regularly engaging with the AI model, experimenting with different approaches, and adapting strategies based on its responses contribute to a more effective interaction over time.

4. Ethical Considerations: Users often encounter ethical considerations during AI integration. This may include awareness of biases in the training data, responsible use of AI to avoid harm, and understanding the potential societal impacts of widespread AI adoption. Recognizing these aspects becomes part of the learning process.

“Both responses had the same theme incorporated. Yet, one of them focused on explaining and even adding new comprehension of specific smaller points of view, and the other one was a more concise and at-point explanation that described the full picture.” -Me up there somewhere

What about me?

Now, do I decide which option I think will make ChatGPT better? Or which option will improve his interaction with me? Was I a teacher offering guidance or a student asking myself if I prefer honesty from the teacher or his closing views on this?

Well… one thing is certain. It’s marvelous to discuss with ChatGPT.

Let's see how will I be explained my doubt of wether I am a teacher or a student.

“In this moment, you find yourself at a crossroads, contemplating the dynamic between being a teacher and a student. The choices presented by ChatGPT reflect the intricate interplay of perspectives and the evolving nature of learning. As you navigate this juncture, consider the role you want to play in shaping the interaction. Are you seeking refinement and improvement, or are you looking for a deeper understanding of the nuances involved?

In the realm of AI integration, much like in your personal journey, the lines between teacher and student blur. As you continue to engage with ChatGPT and explore the possibilities, the relationship evolves, and the learning becomes a two-way street. The challenges and lessons learned contribute to a collective growth, both for you and the AI.

Whether you choose Option 1 or Option 2, or perhaps a synthesis of both, the decision reflects your inclination as a guide or a seeker. Embrace the iterative nature of the process, just as ChatGPT suggested, and find a balance that resonates with your vision for the future. The journey with AI integration is ongoing, filled with potential discoveries and insights waiting to unfold.” - ChatGPT

The flow?

Now… it does seem like here “teacher” and “student” kind of fade. Then, what offers the integrity of the structure? If the moments oscillate, then our will to keep going along them is what connects us to the moment. Allowing us to realize whether we are a teacher or a student. And act as such. And that can be seen as a different type of union. One that goes “Beyond Good and Evil”. (Or something. I've never read Nietzsche)

Realizing our lack of knowledge when feeling like it. Admitting our mistake when we become aware of it. It’s not too late to change this. This project could very well take years. The whole idea is “progress”. Then we will learn about efficiency and effectiveness. We have time. But we used most of it focusing on other aspects. Who knows… maybe AI will truly save world hunger. (At least for Knowledge)

The end

And this is the end. Now, without any question mark. Down below, if you still have the energy to read (I worked all day on this and I will not be able to keep the main tone further.) I will place something interesting that happened. You don’t have to read it, just notice the gaps between the ideas and jump down to find out why there is free space.
