At the end of the day a chatbot is a chatbot: it's producing plausible-sounding output from the input. GPT is just better at it than other chatbots. It still doesn't _know_ anything, or _have opinions_. It is like a person who's BSing: quick, talk about a subject, and sound like you know what it is! It's a farce to consider it as something other than that, which is also why I don't personally care about all the news about it (and agree with the OP: the hype is silly and tedious).
When ML models are trained on whether they give correct answers, rather than correct-sounding answers, I'll be interested in the bot they produce.
- quitit 4y agoSimilar to Dall-e: It's output looks impressive and revolutionary if that's not your field of expertise. If it is, it looks closer to Clippy rather that HAL. Thus it's not the UnemploymentMaker5000™. There's a number of naive voices that believe it just needs a little this or that and it will abound forward in capability. That little thing they're asking is not actually little for AI. It just seems simple because humans develop the requisite concepts (such as compositionality) so young.
