This is only a factor if the underlying AI/LLM model becomes as good as OpenAI AND serves millions of people. While open source LLMs are soon going to gain parity with GPT-4/Bard, it is unlikely that they will hit the kind of usage numbers that an OpenAI/Google/Meta can deliver.
Even there, I'm not sure Google/Bing will cannibalize their own product to allow third parties to inject data into a search interaction.
ChatGPT is a fundamentally different product - it's a humanlike intelligence which is always ready to talk to you and assist you. We haven't ever had anything of comparable quality and reach. The nearest was Alexa but even she was limited to Amazon's catalog and shopping. It's like ChatGPT can be everyone's personal gofer and THAT is huge, imo.
- r00fus 3y ago> it's a humanlike intelligence No that's incorrect. It is auto-fill on steroids trained on years of internet postings from actual humans (ie, reddit, twitter, etc). That input is going to dry up - no longer free (Reddit has said all future posts are going to cost $ to access). Good for OpenAI as it has such a headstart, but many companies can source/tap into legitimate alternative user data streams - FAAMG for sure, but also any company that can convince it's userbase to provide training data that already has a foothold.
- Sai_ 3y agoIf free human generated content dries up for OpenAI wouldn't it dry up for Google (both Search and Bard) and Bing as well?
- r00fus 3y agoGoogle has its finger on the pulse of everything that goes through google search, gmail, etc. There's a reason everyone 15 years ago thought that Google would produce the first game-changer AI. OpenAI is getting stuff from Bing, but Microsoft controls that data.
