Someone described GPT-3 as a "very good search engine" and I'm pretty happy with that explanation (even if honestly going from the regressions to 'search engine' is a pretty tenuous thing).
At least then there's a more nice understanding that it's about matching stuff its already seen (for various definitions of seen) rather than making things up out of full cloth
- Jensson 5y agoMore specifically it is a templates search engine where it can replace some parts, like the name of persons etc. You know all those old "Hello { PERSON_1 }, have you heard about {PERSON_2} in {CITY_1}?", that is most how to think about it, it searches for a template and then applies it with the arguments it fetched from your string.
