Is it just me, or is the OpenAI hype finally dying down?
- pchristensen 10y agoThe hype may be dying down, but I don't think the mission of the organization is to generate hype.
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoI presume we'll see hype when OpenAI starts posting :results: rather than generic plans.
- nl 10y agoThey have plenty of results. All their work on GANs[1][2] has been great, and the OpenAI gym has proven to be pretty popular for reinforcement learning research already. I'm not sure how "hype" is measured - perhaps people thought they were going to invent some kind of AI entity we would have to persuade not to shoot us all by now or something. I know that all the papers coming out of OpenAI get hyped just as much as anything from DeepMind, Google Brain or FAIR, so there seems to be decent amount of hype still? But then usually that hype is justified, in which case maybe it is better characterised as "excitement"?
