Yeah I don’t think the models are meaningfully differentiated outside of very specific edge cases. I suspect this was the thinking behind OpenAI and Facebook and all trying to lean hard into presenting their chatbots as friends and romantic partners. If they can’t maintain a technical moat they can try to cultivate an emotional one.
- g-mork 6mo agoSaw a comment here yesterday referencing the Attention Is All You Need paper title in a tongue in cheek way. Kinda fun to imagine the friend/romance angle is just a bunch of socially awkward folk at OpenAI misinterpreting the original paper
- acuozzo 6mo ago> very specific edge cases Mathematics is hardly an edge case, but SOTA models differ wildly in their ability to write proofs for unsolved problems. Models also differ wildly in tasks like decompilation for reverse engineering. Also, so far, the only model I've found which can competently write PTX for SM100 CUDA devices is GPT-5.4pro, but I'm willing to admit that this is more of an edge case than the aforementioned. AFAICT, the extent to which someone finds models interchangeable is inversely proportional to the novelty of their work.
- naravara 6mo agoI mean, if the work is novel it’s almost definitionally an edge case is it not?
