I agree that the text generation has improved dramatically. But there is a big gap between "generating gramatically correct sentences" and "sentences that express an elaborated idea". For example:
> I was thinking of how cool it would be to build a Twitter-like service where the only posts are GPT-3 outputs.
Why would I need that? There are better ways for entertainment.
> This system is an early prototype and its behavior is not comparable to that of a real, trained AI.
Nonsense. This made it clear for me that the author (= GPT-3) has no real clue what it's talking about.
Even though this looks like we got one step closer to text understanding - we did not. We just got better in obfuscating that those algorithms have no real sense and clue of what they talk about.
