I wrote a new book with OpenAI's latest, most powerful large language model. It’s called Impromptu: Amplifying our Humanity through AI. This, as far as I know, is the first book written with GPT-4. Last summer, I got access to GPT-4. It felt like I had a new kind of passport. My pages were quickly filled with stamps: Over 1,000 prompts. 800+ pages of outputs. Just in the first few months. With GPT-4, I traveled through light bulb jokes, epic poems, original sci fi plots, arguments about human nature, musings on how AI might strengthen democracy, society and industries. The goal, like in any good trip, was to learn as much about my traveling partner as the place I was exploring. Earlier this year, I organized my explorations with GPT-4 into sections: creativity, education, criminal justice, public intellectualism, journalism and more. My travelog, Impromptu, captures my treks with GPT-4. These paths will be well-trodden soon (if not already) by others. I'm writing this travelog both to encourage people to not only get to know GPT-4, but to embrace our choice of how we’ll use it, and explore the different ways this choice might play out. Impromptu is now available: As a free PDF: https://lnkd.in/eZSsGYgB   On Kindle: https://lnkd.in/eUE2ukM3  Here’s a quick video on the origin and making of Impromptu:

What I wouldn’t give for an audio version of this read by you! Gina Bianchini can you convince him? Maybe produce it with Eleven labs or another one? Starting to read now!
