The scarcest human resource is full-hearted commitment. What could you accomplish if you committed headfirst, w/no exit strategy, into a critical mission for the next 10 years? The answer is exponentially more than if you’re half-in-half-out. Dreams die in the zone of “maybe”.

A few months ago -- I built a product on top of GPT-3 that got 100,000+ users. There's more to these models than what meets the eye. I wrote a post covering 3 insights I had building w/ GPT-3 -- should help anyone building on top of LLMs. Enjoy ✨

started as an absolute newbie, grinded cellular & molecular bio, ML and genetics for 3 months straight. Got into arguably one of the best bioinformatics and genetics research lab. what an absolute W quarter.
