'In recent years, innovative AI products that didn’t build their own models were derided as low-tech “GPT wrappers.” '
The ones derided were those claiming to be 'open-source XY' while being a standard tailwind template over an OpenAI call or those claiming revolutionay XY while 90% being the proprietary model underneath.
I am not sure how many were truly innovative that weren't cloneable in a very short time. Using models to empower your app is great, having the model be all of your app while you pitch it otherwise is to be derided.
- muzani 2y agoI was mentoring at a hackathon this weekend. Someone asked how they could integrate a certain open source pentesting agent into their tool. I asked them, "Well, it's open source. Instead of making a bunch of adapters, couldn't you just copy the code you want?" Turns out the whole agent was 11 files or so. The files were about 200 lines. Over half were just different personas to do the same thing. They just needed to copy one of the prompts and have a mechanism to break the loop. The funny part with open source is nobody reads the code even though it's literally open. The AI pundits don't read what they criticize. The grifters just chain it forward. It's left-pad all over again.
