Well, I for one am extremely excited. I've toyed around with ChatGPT for the past days, and I'm feeling more creative than ever before. Given how good things are now, I can't even imagine what things will be 10 years from now. I still remember how things were 10 years ago in this scene (machine learning). The only thing that's concerning me, is that we end up with some "Benevolent dictatorship" situation, where a handful of actors hold all the power, and we're merely allowed to use the tech under their watchful eye. Kind of like how Google products work these days.

What have you made with it?

  It is mainly helpful for me with writers block.

    That's actually a potentially really good use for it. "Write me a chapter where Bob does this thing and Suzy responds and then a cat walks in" And then you go to town on it, because it's always easier to rewrite than to write.

Agreed. ChatGPT has breathed new life into my creativity and optimism. It feels like a game changer or, at least, a view of a game changer that we'll have in the future. I share your concern. I am worried that this tech can easily be taken away from me.

Creative how? Can you expand on that?

I wrote a children's book yesterday, I just need to plug sections of text into stable diffusion and I'll be ready to publish. I could probably do 10 books per week, more if I automate it all... Crazy times indeed.

  I considered that too but weighted with the possibility of openai claiming copyright on the text, I decided against it.

  Imagine what that would do to the market at scale.

I understand seeing the results everywhere, and taking over subreddits and hackernews front page, and other areas being a little frustrating or annoying... but personally, I love copilot and chatgpt (and stable diffusion). It's super exciting for me, and a lot of my queries that would go to google can go straight to chatGPT. I'm just continually amazed at what is currently possible, and what the future holds.

  > a lot of my queries that would go to google can go straight to chatGPT. Really? I played 10 minutes with it, but lot of answers were wrong and I didn't have the option to easily verify them. I found this tool intriguing, but not useful in this form.

    It works best when working with something you have domain knowledge of and/or can easily verify the answers. For example programming.

We're moving to a world where almost all code written will be AI assisted. Think about that. From 10 years ago, almost all code was written by humans. Today, 50% of code is assisted by AI. In 10 years? Humans will not be writing code but expressing ideas that a computer can turn into code. I'm sorry to those annoyed by it. It's pretty awesome technology which is why a lot of people are excited by it.

  50% of code written today is AI assisted? I find that very hard to believe.

"GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke recently told us that Copilot is now handling up to 40% of coding among programmers using the AI in the beta testing period over the past year. Put another way, for every 100 lines of code, 40 are being written by the AI, with total project time cut by up to 55%." Sorry not 50% but once programmers discover a tool that can write code, it's uptake is quite strong.

  > Today, 50% of code is assisted by AI. Do you mean programming is assisted, or AI assisted applications? I think both are well under one percentage of new creations, and much much less if counting existing code and applications.

  This has been said before a few times over the past 60 years. It's similar to claims that this time automation is going to really put humans out of a job.
