Objectively speaking (if people would be honest with themselves), both are just decent at best.
I think comparing them now is probably not that useful outside of this AI hype train. Like comparing two children. A lot can happen.
The bigger message I am getting from this is it's clear OpenAI won't have a super AI monopoly.
- TaylorAlexander 2y agoComparing two children is a good one. My girlfriend has taken to pointing out when I’m engaging in “punditry”. They're an engineer like I am and we talk about tech all the time, but sometimes I talk about which company is beating which company like it’s a football game, and they call me out for it. Video models are interesting, and to some extent trying to imagine which company is gonna eat the other’s lunch is kind of interesting, but sometimes that’s all people are interested in and I can see my girlfriend's reasoning for being disinterested in such discussion.
- Jonanin 2y agoExcept that many of the people involved do think of it like a football game, and thus it actually is like one. Of course the researchers and engineers at both OpenAI and Google DeepMind have a sense of rivalry and strive to one up another. They definitely feel like they are in a competition.
- TaylorAlexander 2y ago> They definitely feel like they are in a competition. Citation needed? Although I did not work in AI, I did work at Google X robotics on a robot they often use for AI research. Maybe some people felt like it was a competition, but I don’t have much reason to believe that feeling is common. AI researchers are literally in collaboration with other people in the field, publishing papers and reading the work of others to learn and build upon it.

When OpenAI suddenly stopped publishing their stuff I bet that many researchers now started feeling like it started to be a competition. OpenAI is no longer cooperating, they are just competing. They still haven't said anything about how gpt-4 works.

- Aeolun 2y agoI’m fairly certain Google just has a big stack of these in storage but never released, or the moment someone pulls ahead it’s all hands on deck to make the same thing.
