Issue is the data moat OAI is building. They'll have hundreds of millions of high quality user interactions with ChatGPT they can use to finetune their models. What will anyone else including Google have?

People really don't seem to understand just how far ahead OAI is in its reasoning abilities ( https://crfm.stanford.edu/helm/v0.2.2/?group=reasoning ) Maybe PaLM is near there (it's not evaluated on that p

Hope so. Don't want a single corporate entity (OAI/MS) dominating the entire economy. This sector desperately needs competition

From what I heard, they don't have scaling capabilities to deploy the bigger models right now which they're working on and that's the biggest issue.

They have been collecting human feedback data for 2 years + probably have a lot of data from Copilot + are training with large context models + have invested a ridiculous amount in curating pretraining data -- the kind of stuff that won

It's definitely not just copying verbatim. If you mean it's emulating the reasoning pattern it sees in the training data well...don't humans do that as well to get answers to novel problems?

Will take a bit of time before AI can consistently beat us on coding/proofs but the raw ingredients imo are there. As someone who was skeptical of AGI via just scaling things up even after GPT-3, what convinced me was the chain of thou

You would be taking snippets of code (that are potentially unparseable), concating them together and putting it in the prompt. The issue is that it would be kind of prompt the model has never seen before in the training data. Maybe it would

Not sure how easy it would be to make work. Code edit data is not that prevalent. The best I can think of is looking at github commit changes. That's one place where Repl.it has a big advantage as it has live editing data from its user

I think they find a N^2.778 complexity algorithm (obtained by applying their 4x4 discovered algorithm recursively) so this is not correct.

Flip side -- the pioneering research may not have been possible without govt funding of science through a grant based system. Imo the right conclusion here is to increase govt funding massively. Unclear to me how to not do it based on a gra
