New OpenAI Policy: Restrictions on Using ChatGPT for Medical and Legal Advice
▪️ According to OpenAI's new policy, which came into effect on October 29, 2023, the use of ChatGPT for specialized medical and legal advice is now prohibited. Users can only use ChatGPT for these purposes if accompanied by authorized professionals.
▪️ Additionally, using ChatGPT for activities such as threats, harassment, promoting violence, and generating inappropriate content for children is also banned.
This means that from now on, ChatGPT can only provide general and educational information on these topics. If you ask specific professional questions, it will suggest consulting a legal or medical advisor instead.
We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for...

At some point, you think your dad messed up. Later on, you think, nah, it was your mom who didn't do enough. But when you really grow up, you realize neither of them knew what was right. They both fought their own battles, and you ended up being the result of that unfinished war. After a certain point, it's not really on them anymore. It's on you now: do you keep carrying those wounds, or do you start healing them?
If you want to measure a person’s discipline, observe how they behave when no one is watching. Reputation shapes performance, but solitude reveals identity. The strongest men obey principles in private that others only perform in public.
If I could talk to my younger self, I would just say that the path to great things is filled with a lot of stumbles, suffering, and challenges along the way. But if you have the right attitude and know that hard times will pass - and you get up each time - you will reach your destination.

The painting Mary Magdalene as a Hermit (Detail), 1833 by Francesco Hayez, depicts Mary Magdalene in a state of solitude and contemplation, and is part of the Romantic movement in 19th-century European art. Romanticism was a reaction against rationalism and the rigid order of Classical styles (such as Neoclassicism). Romantics valued emotion, imagination, and individuality more than logic.
My grandmother had a very interesting theory. She used to say that each of us is born with a matchbox inside, but we cannot light the matches ourselves; just like you saw, to do so we need oxygen and a candle. In this case, for example, oxygen comes from the breath of someone we love; the candle could be any kind of music, caress, word, or sound that ignites one of the matches… A person must discover what keeps the fire within them constantly burning… In short, that fire is the food of the soul. If one doesn’t realize in time what makes the inner fire blaze, the matchbox of their being will get damp and none of their matches will ever light.
