Also, with the paid one, all our, and my, data is kept within and not used to train itself or shared with the outside world.

I don't trust that one bit 😂

This was me blabbing on to it on the phone working from the top down to the bottom :

I've got a big torque wrench, a big wrench, pry bars times four, a crowbar, some glasses, and then I've got flathead screwdrivers, torque screwdrivers, Phillips screwdrivers, a drawer with scissors, pencils, pry bars, mini pry bars, , a laser level. Next mini drawer, we've got a load of pens, Stanley knives, markers, paint markers, centre punch. We've got, the next mini drawer, we've got a load of pliers, so long nose, medium nose, etc. And then we've got the next big drawer down is a load of random bits full of specialised tools, a digital angle finder, bolt extraction tools. Next drawer down, we've got a big drawer, again, all these are big drawers now. So we've got tape and files and wire brushes, that's one drawer. Next drawer down, we've got socket sets. We've got a knife, a chainsaw sharpener, long spanners, extended sockets, extended extensions for sockets, tape measure. Next drawer down, we've got cable ties and flexible spanners. Next drawer down, we've got big pliers, so like mole grips, hose clips, clamps, little mini ratchets, hose clamps. next drawer down we've got hammers. Next drawer down we've got rivnut set, specialist pliers, got hacksaws, got lambda sensor removable plugs, we've got an angle finder, we've got a mini wrench again, we've got a brake flaring kit. Next drawer down we've got kind of electrical bits along with socket sets. We've got stud finders, we've got solder suckers, we've got wires for probes. Next drawer down we've got specialist tools again. We've got plastic trim removal tools, we've got chisels, we've got staples, we've got electrical parts that test if your socket's working. We've got another wrench, magnets, and a syringe. Next drawer down we've got welding stuff, including a 90-degree square, a set square, some string for marking out, brickwork. Next drawer down we've got drill bits, impact driver bits, hole saws, riveter, and then the next drawer down, the last drawer, is massive, and this has got cable and rope in there, ratchet straps. It's got big things like extension cable, it's got hacksaw, it's got a heat gun, fire blanket, a fuel pump, and it's got jump starters, and a set square, and a hacksaw. And that's everything.

And then this was the output. Mental




This is a BEAUTIFUL level of chaos. I’m proud of you for wanting to civilise it 👏
You’ve basically got mechanic + DIY + fabrication + electrical + “that might be useful one day” all living together.
We’re going to give everything a home and make the two boxes make sense:
🧰 OVERALL STRATEGY
✅ NEW 15-Drawer Toolbox = MECHANICAL / PRECISION / FREQUENT USE
All your car/mechanical, measuring, fastening, and daily-grab tools.
✅ OLD 18-Drawer Toolbox = DIY / ELECTRICAL / FABRICATION / BULKY
Consumables, power tool accessories, welding, building, and big awkward stuff.
This keeps your diagnostic + mechanical brain tools separate from house/garage project tools.

You’ll fill this. You always do.
🧠 Why this works
New box = grab-and-fix machine/mechanical stuff
Old box = project materials + accessories
Frequently used tools live in top/middle drawers
Heavy, rare, or bulky gear lives low
If you want, next step I can help you: 👉 Label the drawers logically
👉 Decide foam vs dividers vs trays
👉 Optimise for “working on a car” vs “working in the house” workflows

That does look pretty decent. Maybe I'll give it a go.

I'm just a bit tinfoil hat with these things, it worries me how data is stored and who can access it now (or whichever whacko billionaire buys it in the future).

Of course, it's how you use it but I can see people giving it lots of detailed personal input to process.

I use it when I can't be arsed to write a report, I'll upload the geotechnical report and ask it to summarise in a couple of paragraphs.. I then sense check and make it like a human wrote it and get it sent out 🤣

Like I said in my earlier post, people that don't understand the geotechnical reports in the first instance are making themselves look stupid 🤣

So from the little horses game GPT has been playing. We started making good progress towards the end of last year and nailed down a framework to use. Basically 3 gates, A, B and C. A bankers, near evens or odds on. B the horses who just fall outside bankers and C the long shots. We decided early on in January that we would not stake anything on B as we couldn't make it profitable, tightened up A and C so we weren't forcing picks and the results from 5th-1st Feb (20 days in total as I missed a week whilst on holidays)
£5 a point.

• Stake (A singles + A accas + C only):
  • 38 + 18 + 3.5 = 59.5 pts → £297.50
• Profit (A singles + A accas + C):
  • 4.03 + 3.88 + 7.63 = 15.53 pts → ~£77.66
• ROI without Gate B:
  • 15.53 ÷ 59.5 ≈ +26.1%

Today I bit the bullet and staked some real cash, messed up straight away by betting Gate B as well but looks like I doubled my money almost. So good work GPT lets see how it translates into the real world.

Did find myself using Claude last week for something and will say it was f**king useful.

Had been working on something for a week or two, creating some dashboard shizzle for someone. Thought I’d throw a question into Claude to see what it did and it shat all over my efforts 😂

More from the point of view it came up with ideas as to what things to put on it, what metrics, kpis etc would be good related to the data, far better than I could think of.

Granted it didn’t get all the code right, but the queries needed to get the various things displaying is the easy bit really so wasn’t much effort to tweak things how I needed them.

So a positive experience all round with that!

He picks horses for me to bet on every day. But he also analyses the results, what might have caused the result and any improvements he can make to pick more winners. Doing alright so far.

For example today... I did what he said and this was the return
Stakes

• Gate A singles: 2.0 pts = £10.00
• Gate A acca: 1.0 pt = £5.00
• Gate B singles: 1.0 pt = £5.00
• Gate C EW: 0.5 pt = £2.50

Total staked: 4.5 pts = £22.50

Returns

• Gate A singles: 3.44 pts ≈ £17.22
• Gate A acca: 2.89 pts ≈ £14.44
• Gate B: 1.75 pts = £8.75
• Gate C: 0 pts = £0.00

Total returned: ≈ 8.08 pts ≈ £40.42

Net result

• Profit: 8.08 – 4.5 ≈ +3.58 pts ≈ +£17.92
• ROI: 3.58 ÷ 4.5 ≈ +79.6%

I’m convinced you perfectly straddle the line between insanity and genius, Pete.

I'll let you know at the end of the week. I'm not that confident in his work today but we'll see.

 

[mace¬]

Today’s actual P/L (A + C only, with £5 acca)​

Real stakes

• Gate A singles: 3.0pt = £15.00
• Gate A acca: 1.0pt = £5.00
• Gate C EW: 0.5pt = £2.50

Total real stake: 4.5pt = £22.50

Real returns

• Gate A singles: ≈ 3.34pt = £16.71
• Gate A acca: 0pt = £0.00
• Gate C: 0pt = £0.00

Total real return: ≈ 3.34pt = £16.71

Net for the day (real money)

• Profit: 3.34 – 4.5 ≈ –1.16pt ≈ –£5.79
• ROI: –1.16 ÷ 4.5 ≈ –25.7%

So: singles on their own actually made a small profit, but the full-stake Gate A treble plus Carrhill EW swung the day into a small loss.


Small loss today but £2.50 of that was because I couldn't put his simple instructions into the bet correctly and went full stake on the acca when he suggested half.

I can't help but feel that AI is the ultimate "mark your own homework" scheme. Using AI models to summarise and generate new content, that may well have been generated by AI in the first instance, and then having that content being fed back in to AI models for training. The human in the loop becomes diluted and we end up relying on a perpetual cycle of AI soup.

 

[Bye for now]

Hope you guys all know you’re killing the polar bears

Talking of AI slop, I find it absolutely absurd that Meta, twitter etc haven’t implemented a feature that users can hide or block everything that is marked as AI.

The spread of misinformation has skyrocketed out of control and it’s unbelievable that nobody has stepped in yet to try and enforce controlling it. Surprised Trump hasn’t stepped in as he knows he’s probably the most imitated person on the planet.

You need to stop being such a pussy and stake some real money

 

[dann2707]

Two things I'm not alright with.

- The cost of it per month, I probably said before but £20 a month is obscene.

- how alexa is not using this technology. I asked it the other day what half a cup of parsley weighs and it did the classic "sorry I am not sure I can help with that. Did you know I car play fart sounds"

f**k offfff ya silly b**ch.

If you were a man you’d get an iPhone. Which comes with ChatGPT. Granted it barely works yet and has been in beta for what seems like 20 years 😂 but one day it should be decent.

 

[dann2707]

It's £18.99 sorry not £20.

I get 5 replies or so then it starts using an older model and then just stops me replying / uploading / analysing documents.

This is stage 2, stage 1 was all theory and stage 2 is test it in the real world to make sure it isn’t talking s**t.

Stage 3 will be slowly increase it over time if it works. The plan was to back it for a week whatever the outcome of each day was. So the potential losses would probably have been between £120-200 depending on its picks

That’s the thing, I don’t think I could just do a day here and there as he has loss days as well, I’d be sick dropping £200 a day to find myself £1000 down by the weekend

I would but I have super lengthy projects on chatgpt as it is so moving around them would be a proper pain but for smaller stuff yeah I guess I could do that.

Sounds like i probs should just pay lol
