The biggest problem with ChatGPT (and alternatives) is the risk of being coopted for generating the content someone gets in trouble for. Someone very important will get in BIG BIG trouble and try to blame OpenAI for it... and the series of lawsuits that will follow will kill them.
While other such models will be impacted, hopefully, there will be significant variations in alternatives so that we don't lose this technology over giant corporations trying to get out of their trouble by suing their service providers.
There will also be companies that will use modified versions of open source alternatives... to make them much more conservative and cautious, so that they don't get in trouble. There will be these variations that will be shared by certain industries.
So, while the generative AI is here to stay, there will be a LOT of variations... and ChatGPT will have to change a lot if they want to stay alive and relevant over time.
- freedomben 4y agowould you consider OpenAI (in its current iteration) to be conservative?
- sebzim4500 4y agoYou may be right that some of the smaller AI players could be overwhelmed by lawsuits but OpenAI has a nearly $2 trillion company bankrolling them so they can hire every lawyer in the US if necessary.
- beachy 4y agoExactly. The legal risks act as a moat that only the largest vendors can dig around themselves. I think OpenAI would be very happy about the legal risks.
