Not bad. For a role as Quant at the European Investment Bank [0], it generated: A) I want to work at the European Investment Bank because I am passionate about fighting climate change and promoting sustainable development. The EIB is at the forefront of these efforts, and I want to be a part of that. Additionally, I have experience in designing, developing, testing, and documenting quantitative models, which makes me a perfect fit for this position. B) The EIB offers an opportunity to work for the biggest multilateral financial institution in the world that is at the forefront of climate finance. I want to work here because I want to help the EIB achieve its goals and contribute to European integration.

I think the time of essays has just passed. I just don't see how teacher would catch students who would use GPT-3 for essay writing. I think lawyers are next. There is also a post on the front page about rise of hype in grant applications ... just wait until GPT-3++ learns a bit of logic and scientific facts :)

  It is interesting how these problems will mainly be affecting English speaking populations; for smaller languages, the models are not good enough and it is likely to stay that way as large corporations often neglect them

    Indeed, very interesting. Imagine the (not so distant) future web populated with ai generated gibberish that would be indistinguishable form the real thing. It could make English unusable for online knowledge sharing and could cause the switch to another language (and another, and another...). The threat is very real. There should be a scifi novel based on that (probably already is, hopefully not generated by gtp3)

  >I think lawyers are next. You hire a good law firm for the strategy, not their writing. This may streamline their work, but I can't see GPT-3 or even GPT-9 displacing lawyers.

  Actually... I think lawyers will not be next. I've tried repeatedly to get GPT-3 to draught basic legal arguments, and it is absolute drivel. I'm not kidding you, it couldn't do the most basic stuff that I'd leave to any intern. Creative writing, now that is different. Empty repeating of cliches like in OP's application; there it does a really good job.

    Self-reply. I've tried with a bit higher level strategy thinking. That wasn't as bad as it could be. Italics is mine, the rest is GPT3. (The confidentiality part is going to tricky if the coffee maker is sold, so that is makes little sense). A client has approached with a new type of coffee maker. The coffee maker uses a novel way to build up pressure and improve water quality. He is concerned the coffee maker will copied in Azia and that he will be competing with cheap imitations. Please draft a memo with a legal strategy that the client can use to protect himself. Memo The client should consider applying for a patent on the coffee maker. A patent will give the client the exclusive right to make, use, and sell the invention in the United States for a period of 20 years. The client can also license the patent to others. The client should also consider trademarking the name of the coffee maker. A trademark is a word, phrase, symbol, or design that identifies and distinguishes the source of the goods of one party from those of others. A trademark can be used to prevent others from using a confusingly similar mark on similar products. The client should also take steps to keep the design and operation of the coffee maker confidential. The client should require employees, contractors, and others who have access to the coffee maker to sign confidentiality agreements. The client should also take care to not publicly disclose the design or operation of the coffee maker. The client can use these legal tools to protect the coffee maker from copying in Asia and to help the coffee maker compete against cheap imitations.

  I think it is absolutely fine to write essays using GPT-3 and teachers do not need to worry about it. It just a tool that makes doing so vastly more efficient. I think there is a misunderstanding with these kinds of "AI". Phrasings like "an AI wrote this text" are problematic. This is not some general artificial intelligence but a tool that allows humans to generate text. It is like saying computer generated images are created by computers. Yeah, technically by they are still made by an human artist. AI based tools are just on an much higher level of abstraction but they are still simply tools needing human guidance. So writing a good essay will become much more efficient for students but it will still require some work and skill (though slightly different skill). They still need to select the topic, the keywords, edit it, try to make it fit a coherent narrative and argumentation and so on. The boring execution stuff is cut out but the high level decisions that actually matter are not replaced by the AI. Essay writing will be much improved.

    I think at some point in 6th grade essay writing started to bore me. What's the point in generating fluff? Just hope that AIs are going to consume those improved essays instead of me.

      Yeah, good writing is about cutting the fluff not generating it. I never understood why the certain countries like the US have such an essay writing culture. It is super annoying and time consuming for teachers to mark and students obviously get exhausted by them.
