Just use a machine learning method other than an LLM. If you're going to go to the effort of fine tuning and training, pay people to collect and label data like we used to do before Feb 2023. If your main concern is question answering

What you described is known as "sequence-to-sequence learning", or seq2seq. Google it or ask ChatGPT. It's a very common NLP technique that can do almost everything you mentioned. Of course the utility will depend on the trai

If we didn't value humans more than other things we wouldn't have survived as a species. You can argue over terminology, but you can't beat evolution. I'd imagine that you'd prioritize saving a human child from a fi

The concerns of AI pessimists are simply not real. They are thought experiments and hypotheticals about a technology that does not exist and is vaguely defined. There are concerns about every form of technology. Nuclear energy. Plastics. On

This is massively overstated. The major costs of being a spammer are creating new accounts and staying off blacklists. Carrying on conversations or creating content are marginal costs, at best. LLMs are no more valuable to a large spam oper

> In the next 10 years, AI/robots will generate wealth at an unprecedented scale. Would love to see the reasoning behind this. Nothing I've seen about LLMs makes me think they will produce any kind of bounty for anyone.

This has nothing to do with ChatGPT. An api end point will be just as vulnerable if it's called from any application. There's nothing special about an LLM interface that will make this more or less likely. It sounds like you'

We live in a world that's dominated by staring at screens. You're doing it right now. This wasn't true when I was young. The world changed. It stands to reason that the education system should also change to reflect the world

Yes. It still can't attend meetings, collaborate on projects or set priorities. Or any of the other things programmers spend most of their time doing. Also I'd guess that it still generally sucks at programming. Code has a lot of

After watching the demos I'm convinced that the new context length will have the biggest impact. The ability to dump 32k tokens into a prompt (25,000 words) seems like it will drastically expand the reasoning capability and number of u

There's a lot of talk about AGI, or whether GPT is valuable or not based on its tendency to be confidently incorrect. I think this misses the point made by cs702: GPT is a machine learning model that is available to anyone, with no kno

A Large Language Model is a tool and people have to learn to use it, just like any other tool. I have used GPT as a machine learning model in a way similar to the grandparent comment, and I now have some understanding of when and why it hal

You're still sending the data to OpenAI in the prompts. That's sending arbitrary text from my corporate slack to a 3rd party. Where you host my data before you send it to wherever isn't relevant. Also, "We host with AWS&

This is better than I thought it would be. If you're skeptical, give it a try. I am curious about whether it hallucinates api methods that don't exist, like ChatGPT does. I haven't seen that yet but the underlying concept of

"Neural networks are bad because some times they fail" is a low brow dismissal, indeed. What matters is the percentage accuracy. A black box with a 10% failure rate is better than a fully explainable system that fails 20% of the t

I find it fascinating that so many people have such an interest in making a bot say something racist. this thing is a very powerful tool. and the best use they can come up with is "make it be racist"?
