If literally solving the entire field of natural language processing and recently most of computer vision with GPT4V doesn't count as mind-blowing for you then

If literally solving the entire field of natural language processing and recently most of computer vision with GPT4V doesn't count as mind-blowing for you then I'm sad to say that I really doubt anything would ever convince you.
- Dig1t 3y agoYeah it's amazing from a Computer Science perspective, these are problems that have been unsolved for the entire duration of the field's existence.
- ska 3y agoBoth your claims are hyperbolic ... but your point is fair, there is obviously something useful there.
- moffkalast 3y agoThey are, but only slightly. If you asked me a year ago if I thought any of this would be possible next year I would've laughed like Gol D. Roger.

- ska 3y agoI think it was pretty visible a few years ago, but not 10. And I think there is a lot left to do in both areas, but the jump in NLP capabilities is significant.
- moffkalast 3y agoYeah I mean technically GPT 3 was already out for a while and looked impressive, but it was still only accesible to like 10 people and it was difficult to tell if it fell flat outside prearranged demo examples. In fact given what we know now, it likely wasn't nearly as good as it looked. So was hard to say at that point if this whole language model thing will pan out or become yet another useless learning approach that's unfeasible to apply to anything.
- stevenhuang 3y agoYou don't even need to go that far. Their confused comparisons to crypto is telling enough lol.
