- ronnier 2y agoThe name ChatGPT is better than the name Claude, to me. Of course this is all subjective though.
- setsewerd 2y agoThis brings up the broader question: why are AI companies so bad at naming their products? All the OpenAI model names look like garbled nonsense to the layperson, while Anthropic is a bit of a mixed bag too. I'm not sure what image Claude is supposed to conjure, Sonnet is a nice name if it's packaged as a creative writing tool but less so for developers. Meta AI is at least to the point, though not particularly interesting as far as names go. Gemini is kind of cool sounding, aiming for the associations of playful/curious of that zodiac sign. And the Gemini models are about as unreliable as astrology is for practical use, so I guess that name makes the most sense.
- jmcmaster 2y agoAsking Americans to read a French name that is a homonym for “clod” may not be the best mass market decision.
- 0x457 2y agoPlot twist: regular users don't care what model underneath is called or how it works.
