The Chat-GPT models are all pre-prompted and pre-aligned. If you work with davinci-003, it will never say things like, "I am an OpenAI bot and am unable to work with your unethical request" When using davinci the onus is on you to construct prompts (memories) which is fun and powerful. ==== 97% of API usage might be because of ChatGPT's general appeal to the world. But I think they will be losing a part of the hacker/builder ethos if they drop things like davinci-003, which might suck for them in the long run. Consumers over developers.

The hacker/builder ethos doesn't matter in the grand scheme of commercialization.

  It matters immensely in the early days and is the basis for all growth that follows. So cutting it off early cuts off future growth.

  Sure - not like most of the infrastructure of pretty much everything online is built on top of projects originating in that space or anything.

  How do they want to commercialise it? Do they want moms to tinker on ChatGPT once a month to do their children's homework? Or do they want people to build businesses using their software

    Mom and Pop offer more users with less legal exposure.

      do they have the cash money dollar? and the willingness to spend it on what is essentially a toy they will quickly grow bored of? I don't think this is the best path to profitability

If you're using the API, you construct the "memories" as well, including the "system" prompt, even in the playground. (When you click the "(+) Add message", the new one defaults to USER, but you can click on it to change it to ASSISTANT, then fill it in with whatever you want.) I used the "Complete" UI (from the Playground) for a bit before the "Chat" interface was available; I don't really think there's anything you couldn't do in the "Complete" UI that you couldn't also do in the "Chat" UI.
