Maybe GPT-3 could be built into a writing IDE so it would suggest the next sentence that way a programming IDE suggests the next code completion. I'd worry that that would inhibit me from having an original thought, but on the other hand it might encourage me to reject the suggestion and come up with something more original.
- surfpel 4y agoGiven than GPT-3 could create narratives, it would probably be too suggestive. Much more simple prediction models for writing (ie: not coding) are used in a few places. Google Docs has a pretty good one.
- michaelwww 4y agoI'm familiar with sentence completion from GMail but I'm talking about thought completion. So for example in a programming IDE it's been true for awhile that it will suggest a name completion, but something new they are adding is suggesting the entire routine you are trying to write. I think CoPilot is even better at this.
- surfpel 4y ago> something new they are adding is suggesting the entire routine you are trying to write But that’s only for simple cases where a person could easily predict the next few words, like business communications that stick to a cultural script, no?
- michaelwww 4y agoVisual Studio will write the entire function for you. It's pretty neat.
