I see. I’m skeptical all of this (and similar use cases) could add up to “as much or more” than the regular internet. The average internet usage is something like 6-7 hours per day. I don’t see how even extremely heavy usage of GPT gets anywhere close to that, unless much of that time is “playing” (which is itself extremely cool!)
- osigurdson 4y agoThe comparison I draw is to google search, not general internet usage like Netflix and YouTube. I think it makes sense to use ChatGPT more often than search for most of my use cases. Fully agree that it does not replace the entire internet.
- ethanbond 4y agoOkay yes that I find much more believable. Information retrieval is pretty awesome, though I’d suggest a lot of that is due to the inferiority of the search engine business model than superiority of LLM technology. Especially if hallucinations and fake citations are solvable, this will be a killer app for sure. Obviously generative usecases are awesome (though IMO will be practically fewer and further between than people seem to think), and summarization usecases are awesome.
