That's cool, but you could have probably figured out how to do that with a google search as well, albeit not as quickly. So your example speeds up something that was already possible, but doesn't necessarily introduce anything novel.

- reidjs 4y agoIt may be comparable to the invention of the search engine: instead of looking up stuff in dictionaries and encyclopedias people could find information online way faster. The accuracy of the information back then, however, was not as great as it is nowadays. For a long time teachers told kids not to trust anything they read on Wikipedia because “anyone can edit it” so it was best to verify information with another source. Probably still a good idea to do that. IMO what makes GPT even cooler than a search engine or online forums is you don’t have to wait for a human to respond to your highly technical or niche questions, in some cases GPT can just generate an accurate response to your prompt on the fly. exciting stuff
