I was very worried that a fundamental limitation of current AI-approaches is the massive amount of data. Many interesting applications only have very small datasets. Of course there are still many problems where we have this fundamental problem, for example interpreting sensor data that is very domain specific etc. But after playing around with ChatGPT I think it really opened up new use-cases because it has some "common sense" through its extensive training. As long as your domain is text it really is quite flexible and was able to perform simple tasks and transforming it into structured output, so you can later consume it and feed it into another system. I think this is really revolutionary, the ability to describe simple tasks as you would describe it to a human coupled with a structure on the output, like a simple json with some defined keys. An interface between unstructured and structured so to speak. A fun, small example from my life: I live in a smaller city and I am constantly a bit annoyed by the amount of work it takes to keep up what's going on culturally. The small independent-cinema communicates mostly via instagram, the small jazz-venue has a news-letter it sends every week and the art-museum has a website etc. Where's some live music this week? I would really like to have some recommendation ever week what's going on. Just to test it, I pushed the text into ChatGPT and asked it for a json to give me a list with a date, heading and a two sentences describing the event. I could have just connected it to a website and published it there and also let ChatGPT generate me an instagram post every week with the summary. The result was quite good. This was just plain impossible before and would have to be done by hand. For bigger cities you have various news-sources and magazines covering the culture life, but here in my 80K-city it's obviously not profitable.
