ChatGTP has a number of topics it will refuse to discuss so any writing on those topics will be more often than not human generated.

As I mentioned in another post, OpenAI does not have any sort of lock on LLMs. There's already plenty in the wild and they're only going to get better. Already the commercial AI companies are expressing concern about how much faster the truly open stuff is developing than their stuff. The companies can still throw better hardware at the problem somewhat more reliably but that's not much of a moat; it's still commodity hardware, it's just a bit much to drop on just being able to LLM better if you're not being paid to LLM.

  Do any publicly available services like this offer a uncensored bot? I have models I can run on my laptop without censorship but they aren't very high quality. I know they can exist but from what I can get my hands on it seems saying something offensive is a way to prove you are human for the time being.

    Llama 65B exists and you can just run it on a cloud GPU instance.

      Ahh thank you, still that has a cost, legal and technical bar to cross but seems to meet the criteria.

        Yes, I do agree with you that it is nowhere near as trivial as it is to just pop open ChatGPT and ask it something right now, and at the moment, that matters. I'm looking more long term, like, a year out, five years out, and on that time frame I think it's very reasonable to expect to see ChatGPT-levels of quality being completely commoditized. OpenAI or whatever commercial entity may by then have the next level AI, but there's definitely a threshold where the combination of LLM + human ingenuity gets to the point where there are effectively no signals of humanity left. Moreover, I'm running on the theory that detecting LLMs is in fact not an arms race, but clearly ends in a win for LLMs. Basically, there exists text that simply looks human. It doesn't matter what level of superhuman AI you throw at it, it simply is in the space of "texts that a human was likely to generate". Once that level is attained, it won't matter that there is something that can generate superhuman text quality or something. (Or, put another way, if your clever "ride the AI wave" startup plan is "create a startup that can detect LLM usage", I advise you strongly to wargame out your 1 year and 5 year futures for that tech, especially in the face of deliberate attack. I would not be optimistic.)
