Powerful Personal Branding Prompts: Using ChatGPT To Build An Influential Online Presence

The Myth of Neutrality Countries Will Have to Choose Between America and China ........ This is not a choice that most countries wish to make. Over the past decades, foreign capitals have come to enjoy security and economic benefits from association with both the United States and China. These countries know that joining a coherent political-economic bloc would mean forgoing major benefits from their ties to the other superpower. ....... The message to Washington and Beijing is clear: no country wants to be forced into a binary decision between the two powers. ........ The United States has hastened to reassure its allies that it feels much the same. .......... Even the United States would not join such an arrangement if it required ending its economic relationship with China, which would come at a tremendous cost. ........... The U.S.-Chinese competition is an inescapable feature of today’s world, and Washington should stop pretending otherwise. ............ Washington played hardball. The Trump administration even went as far as to suggest to Poland that future U.S. troop deployments might be at risk if Warsaw worked with Huawei. The U.S. government warned Germany that Washington would limit intelligence sharing if Berlin welcomed Huawei; not long after, the Chinese ambassador to Germany promised retaliation against German companies if Berlin barred Huawei. Europe’s largest economy was caught between its top two trading partners. ........... The Biden administration has signaled its desire to outstrip China in the development and production of semiconductors, quantum computing, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, biomanufacturing, and clean energy technologies. To do so, Washington will need to build domestic capacity in each area and limit China’s ability to race ahead. Countries with niche capabilities will be caught between Beijing, which wants these technologies, and Washington, which wants to minimize Chinese access to them......... Already, Washington and Beijing are competing for the loyalties of Pacific Island states, although the contest in countries like the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, and Papua New Guinea has thus far produced a bidding war rather than a series of forced choices. .......... U.S. threats to cut countries off from intelligence sharing if they used Huawei—which supplied an all-in-one 5G network at a lower cost than anything the West could provide—were ineffective. ............ A sense, however, that the United States will be absent, noncommittal, or incompetent when the going gets tough will tempt them to align with or simply acquiesce to China’s preferences.

Think of Claude as a friendly, enthusiastic colleague or personal assistant who can be instructed in natural language to help you with many tasks. ........ Users can input up to 100K tokens in each prompt, which means that Claude can work over hundreds of pages of technical documentation or even a book. Claude can now also write longer documents - from memos to letters to stories up to a few thousand tokens - all in one go. ....... One of our partners is Jasper ........ They found that Claude 2 was able to go head to head with other state of the art models for a wide variety of use cases, but has particular strength for long form low latency uses. "We are really happy to be among the first to offer Claude 2 to our customers, bringing enhanced semantics, up-to-date knowledge training, improved reasoning for complex prompts, and the ability to effortlessly remix existing content with a 3X larger context window"

. We’ve expanded Claude’s context window from 9K to 100K tokens, corresponding to around

75,000 words!

This means businesses can now submit hundreds of pages of materials for Claude to digest and analyze, and conversations with Claude can go on for hours or even days. .......... The average person can read 100,000 tokens of text in ~5+ hours[1], and then they might need substantially longer to digest, remember, and analyze that information. Claude can now do this in less than a minute. ......... You can drop multiple documents or even a book into the prompt and then ask Claude questions that require synthesis of knowledge across many parts of the text. ........ Claude can follow your instructions and return what you’re looking for, as a human assistant would! ....... 100K translates into roughly 6 hours of audio ......... Assess the pros and cons of a piece of legislation ......... Rapidly prototype by dropping an entire codebase into the context and intelligently build on or modify it
