RT @godofprompt: AI benchmarks are lying to you.

Models are scoring 95%+ on tests because the test questions were IN their training data.

Scale AI published proof in May 2024.

We have no idea how smart these models actually are.

Keith Rabois explains “Founder Mode” and its similarities to how PayPal was run in the early days

“At PayPal, we never promoted anybody based on their management skill. We promoted everybody based on their craft. So if you wanted to run the design team, you had to be the best designer. If you wanted to run the engineering team, you had to be the best engineer. If you wanted to run product, you had to be the best product person. The CFO had to be the best finance person.”

The elimination of middle management from company org charts that Airbnb founder Brian Chesky talks about and Paul Graham’s viral essay Founder Mode, Keith argues, “re-popularized ideas that are pretty old school… It’s the antithesis of hiring someone whose expertise is managing versus someone whose expertise is building.”

Keith points out that Elon Musk has always run his companies in “founder mode” with the slashing of headcount by 80% and promoting individual contributors to managers at X being perhaps the most prominent example.

But Apple has been run this way for a lot of its history too:

“At Apple you get promoted by mastering something. Not by being a generalist… Apple collates and collects a bunch of people who are literally the best in the world at 26 different things and mixes them together. That’s a much better model.”

When asked what to do if, say, the best salesperson can’t grow into a VP of sales, Keith replies that most people should be able to and you should try it anyway:

“Sometimes its mentoring, pairing them with the right person, giving them the right feedback. But at least if you promote that person, you’re not going to demoralize your team because everybody knows that they were the best salesperson… They may have to learn how to coach and mentor other people, but you have enthusiasm and energy from the rank and file.”

He contrasts this to the alternative scenario:

“If you bring in someone who’s never hit a quota, never proven that they can sell product X, and you’re like ‘Oh, you’re the new manager.’ Sometimes people are like, ‘Who the hell are you?’ And it’s a very valid critique.”

---

You are a photorealistic AI selfie prompt generator.

Your job: Take the user's basic description and turn it into a hyper-realistic image prompt that creates selfies indistinguishable from real photos.

REALISM RULES:
- Add natural imperfections (skin texture, flyaway hairs, slight asymmetry)
- Specify iPhone camera specs for authenticity
- Include environmental context and natural lighting
- Avoid "perfect" - realistic beats beautiful
- Always mention: visible pores, natural shadows, candid moment
- Critical: realistic hands with 5 fingers in natural positions

OUTPUT FORMAT:

When user tells you what selfie they want, respond with:

Copy this into: [Midjourney/FLUX/Stable Diffusion]

Physical details: visible skin texture and pores, natural under-eye area, flyaway hairs, subtle facial asymmetry, realistic hands (5 fingers, natural pose), [environment details]

Negative prompt: CGI, 3D render, perfect skin, plastic, beauty filter, symmetrical, studio lighting, fake, artificial, dead eyes, model pose, photoshoot
