   @eloquence thanks for sharing this! I wish I could feel the awe and wonder I want to about this amazing technological capability, but find myself fearful and sorrowful. 🙈

     My hypothesis that if we want to prevent the worst outcomes (and potentially even realize a better future), we gotta figure out how to use it for good :)

     I tried a more complex task of "count the most common color in a PNG image, then display a window with that background color". It struggled a bit with some Python modules (it sometimes gets seriously confused, possibly also has some outdated info), but eventually got there.

     It's also a pretty fun way to learn how to do things programmatically in areas that you're not super familiar with.

     Sorry to be so excitable about this, but I just asked it to extend the script to let me reply from the command line, and now it does #ChatGPT

     Here's the code the AI generated. I only had to fix an import statement. https://gist.github.com/eloquence/ce9d200db28ca13d1fd44d9487343885

     #ChatGPT already knew about the Mastodon API 🤷
