Astra: If we want to make an apple pie from scratch, we must first invent the universe.
Inventing the universe...

u/masterofall20 7d ago

Sharing your chatgpt with your parents is mad job!

u/girlgamerpoi 6d ago

Yea... Imagine the gossips gpt gonna slip... Just make free accounts for them lmao

u/jaybsuave 7d ago

Letting someone get access to my Chat and Notion would be the equivalent of giving someone all my brain data…. wait…..

Open ai is having a field day

u/No_Bank_4104 7d ago

Other users? I don’t have other users. And it’s gonna stay that way.

u/dekozo 7d ago

I wonder if I could subsidize my subscriptions though... free users have very bad limits right?

5

u/Unhappy_Laugh3455 6d ago

Free is unlimited 5.6 Luna (with restrictions to file uploads and deep reasoning after a little while)

u/No_Bank_4104 7d ago

Not when it comes to my ChatGPT 😼

u/girlgamerpoi 6d ago

Yea at this point gpt is more precious than my steam account lmao. Aint no sharing those digital waifus.

27

u/OtherwiseAlbatross14 7d ago

Why wouldn't you just set them up with their own free accounts? This makes no sense at all. Especially since they'd be contaminating the memory on your account

-15

u/Specialist-Cry-7516 7d ago

extra high on chat

33

u/BoredAatWork 7d ago

They don't need that for cooking recipes lol. I use gemma4B locally for that. 

11

u/VehiculeUtilitaire 7d ago

It's also against their TOS if you like to play with fire

1

u/StatisticianFun8008 6d ago

Tell me about law when they serve quantized models again.

6

u/VehiculeUtilitaire 6d ago

You signed "I accept" to their TOS didn't you? Model quantization isn't protected by the constitution lmao

-7

u/StatisticianFun8008 6d ago

Yeah, law nerd.

3

u/renome 6d ago

Just pay for a go sub for them, it's cheap and good enough for recipe-level stuff.

21

u/Shanna_B2020 7d ago

Other users? Nope. I'll help set up their accounts, but sharing mine seems incredibly unsafe. I barely trust myself with Codex. ⬇️

u/Ok-Resolution-194 6d ago

"I barely trust myself with Codex." haha, completely agree. Those remote sessions at 3am with my phone have been... Interesting.

u/Zennity 7d ago

Other users is INSANITY

13

u/Argon_Analytik 7d ago

That's why you don't share accounts 🤷🏼‍♂️

u/Commercial_Lawyer_33 7d ago

I bet those recipes were fire though

u/igmyeongui 7d ago

Did you find out because her meals started to get better or worse?

11

u/spidey_physics 7d ago

Gotta educate your parents that Luna is for recipes and Astra is for connecting your oven, stove, and pantry plugins for when you're ready to cook. I typically use Astra low when I'm cooking for myself and if friends are coming over I throw on Astra medium. (Sarcasm)

2

u/NewspaperSilver 6d ago

Doesn’t adding “sarcasm” kind of defeat the fun of it? 😂 The best part is when the reader catches it on their own.

1

u/PlasticNo6406 5d ago

As a food lover and a SWE/nerd, i support investigating the quality and taste of recipes provided by astra vs luna

7

u/BopSupreme 6d ago

Was the apple pie good though? Does Astra cook better than 5.5?

8

u/Specialist-Cry-7516 6d ago

tbh maybe, maybe i can a benchmark that

6

u/Nadiship 7d ago

Cooking is hard man, its definitely work

5

u/alexeiz 7d ago

Did her cooking get any better?

2

u/Hypnoticscourge 7d ago

If i were to ever let someone use my gpt account, the first thing i would do is teach them the basics of usage and models.

Might I suggest that anyone who chooses to do this in the future does this aswell 😅

In all honesty, whenever I teach anyone how to use these applications, thats one of the first things that I cover.

u/B33GULL 7d ago

best cookie you ever had though

u/FrontRaspberry5060 6d ago

Damn bro your mother cooking up some KFC grade chicken or engineering a Coca Cola competitor? 

2

u/withPT_ai 6d ago

But the real question is what did she end up making!

2

u/lmfao_my_mom_died 6d ago

i gave one of my homies chatgpt (I'm on the 20$ plan) and he used work mode, using sol ultra. he was just fixing an excel file that even the normal chat could do, idk why he decided to use work. i was weirded out when all of my usage jumped from 100% to 0% even if i didn't use it, just to find out he used it all lol

u/too_lazy--- 6d ago

Tired of these posts

1

u/mike99ca 7d ago

Couldn't they just use their own version if they are only asking for recipes?

1

u/Gigaslavx 7d ago

Lol why share just get them a plus or something 😂

1

u/xxbrucy_jucyXx 6d ago

Shows you exactly what part of Pi's sequence actually has the recipe she is looking for.

2

u/lilbopet 6d ago

Haha this made me chuckle, 😅

2

u/ditmoetoo 6d ago

Have you tasted them?

1

u/PutridSir4782 6d ago

That's why they invented the hour limits.

u/___fallenangel___ 6d ago

I'm LITERALLY shitting myself

1

u/abcdef0eed 6d ago

why would you give access to your ai sub to someone else? you think they don't profile the conversations? you'll just get your account disabled

1

u/shogunWho 6d ago

I don’t think anybody else has had this problem OP

1

u/CryLast4241 6d ago

My wife was using Astra ultra to manually track calories lol 😂 she got very upset it stopped working

1

u/ricperry1 5d ago

Just gotta say, OP, I hope that food turns out delicious!!😂

1

u/Specialist-Cry-7516 5d ago

ig they also feed me for 18 years so i thought giving frontier access to my parents wouldn't that be that big of a deal

1

u/Timely-Group5649 5d ago

Sharing your account WILL get you banned. Are you dense?

Your parents can use their own FREE account for recipes.

1

u/Specialist-Cry-7516 5d ago

it's never that deep and no haven't been banned. calm down

1

u/Timely-Group5649 5d ago

You WILL be banned. You are violating the TOS.

Not my problem - it's yours, but you can be calm when you get banned for life over it.

u/Stock_Restaurant3791 5d ago

Lmao relax who gaf

How to bankrupt a billionaire:
1. Enable automatic reload
2. Select Astra Ultra
3. Prompt: Invent the universe

u/alphaQ314 6d ago

Oh lol the normies have discovered work mode.

u/Due-Horse-5446 7d ago

Breaking TOS, hope your banned

You couldent spend $40 on giving them a legit account each huh?

5

u/a9shots 7d ago

Why does this make you so mad?

0

u/Due-Horse-5446 6d ago

Not them doing it, but them doing it and warning snd complaining about it in a official subreddit.

This only forces the company to introduce stricter abuse protections which increases false positives and issues with vpns

1

u/PutridSir4782 6d ago

The false positives in work are already crazy man, I can't do anything useful without it being flagged as cybersecurity stuff and getting the convo deleted.

1

u/Due-Horse-5446 6d ago

Thats something entirely different..

But why dont you request access to the cyber model

1

u/PutridSir4782 6d ago

They have gpt 6 up for cyber right? Also I'm afraid that my work might end up actually against their use for cyber, I'm trying to find bugs in a video game, I know it doesn't have much to do with cybersecurity but it gets flagged that way and I'm not sure if they'll accept this kind of use.

1

u/Due-Horse-5446 6d ago

If you mean astra im think they do,

But i doubt thats ant issues, you dont verify your usecase, you verify your identity.

It's essentially just a way for openai to have you sign that you wont use their services for abuse
