Why reference GPT-3? Was there no other suitable or practical source available (e.g. dictionary, encyclopedia, textbook, WebMD, etc)? Was the output accurate (first try, no edits)? I’m just curious, as I doubt the citation as a source lends credibility to content itself, or the context in which it was provided (no offense intended—- perhaps I’m in the minority here).
- mkoryak 5y agomaybe because this is hacker news and GPT-3 is cool.
- nialse 5y agoYou're on to something here. ;) Being a psychologist and an engineer, AI is an intriguing subject and I'm amazed what GPT-3 can produce.
- nialse 5y agoGood question! Some time ago I got the chance to see what GPT-3 knew about psychology and psychological treatment. One of the subjects I let it confabulate about happened to be Cognitive Therapy. All though not perfect in any way, the descriptions are often quite good. I think this example is actually a first shot without edits. Aaron or Judith Becks works are good references otherwise if you want actual reference. From a research perspective I would start out at the reference below. Beck, A. T., & Dozois, D. J. (2011). Cognitive therapy: current status and future directions. Annual review of medicine, 62, 397-409.
