Being the author of The Program, a fiction podcast described by fans as "a love child of Black Mirror and NPR", I've been following news around GPT-3 very closely. So I decided to make an episode depicting a fictionalized origin story of GPT-3. The twist is that I incorporated actual text generated by GPT-3 to tell the narrative (even the episode title has been generated by it!) To this end, I used four excellent articles and wonderful HN discussions that ensued as sources of inspiration and insight. Some of the comments have made it into the episode almost verbatim (of course, all have been properly credited in the show's references).

This community has been nothing but good to me so I thought you might be interested to check out the latest work of whimsy it inspired. You can find the episode in question at the URL above or in your favourite podcast app (search for "The Program audio series" (full title) and find the latest episode). Comments / feedback welcome!
