I don't see where is the monetization potential of GPT3. Creating more spam? Making poetry in bulk? Being SOTA in language tasks doesnt make it useful per se, as NLP measures are rather abstract anyway. As for its technology, it's huge but unless they are hiding some secret sauce, it's a straigtforwardly transformer-based, which means someone somewhere with cheap electricity is already training it on a dump of the entire web. Where's the moat here? Perhaps in some future version that they 'll keep secret? Well it will be a sad day for humanity if they keep its development in secret, given how much its development has benefited from open science around the world.
