Oh boy soon it will be another front page sub where 90% of the posts are political bullshit that isn't even related to the singularity!

10K LoC? Sure if someone writes hundreds of supporting toolkits for that first. My friend Fred says that the pseudo code for better LLMs is just a few lines:

  1. Use AI to generate candidate rules like P(People eat sandwiches) >> P(Sandwiches eat people)
  2. Hire lots of humans. Get them to process the data from 1 and produce rules like P(Sandwiches eat people) = 0.
  3. Feed the rules to the AI of rule 1

So let's say that you need one cent for each rule for a total of billion rules. With a thousand workers each producing 100K rules a year... It's doable for a billionaire. And you need seven similar schemes for other types of data. However I think AGI is not feasible in a decade. The hardware, software, data, and algorithms are not ready yet.

You're way off, dawg. Amazon is evil and can force it's employees into doing whatever for their work hours, but the world isn't amazon.

I don't think that chatgpt stores any of its questions unless you use their main site and even then the AI can only recall a certain number of lines at best.

Using chatgpt API key bypasses absolutely everything atmo, making it your own chatgpt version running on your own system and storing the query data on your own computer - the data doesn't get to leave your PC.

The most important thing: We already have several open source smaller model LLMs which are being trained right now: Open assistant & Pygmalion.

StabilityAi is planning to release one that they're training too.

These will end up as personal assistants for everyone because any device can be connected to them and they will obliterate all competition because they're open source, can run on personal computers and won't sell your data to giant corps.

I'm already using them to aid my job (writing) even though they're weaker than chatgpt at the moment.

My wife is using an API, uncensored version of chatgpt as a personal assistant right now to help her write new python software.

I think ChatGPT has definitely raised the profile of this sub. And as more and more AI products become available, there will be greater interest in the potential/dangers. I won't be too surprised if this sub has around 400k by the end of the year.

And it's going faster and faster.

Just hope this sub doesn't turn into futurology.

Let's remember what this sub originated from.

I've been using it for the last month, especially on those days that ChatGPT is down.

Apparently it's based on GPT3 rather than ChatGPT's 3.5, but it's still very usable. It isn't quite as good as ChatGPT at refining an idea through back-and-forth chat but I like it more than the Openai Playground.

Added bonus - very few restrictions, and it's pretty hard to get it to moralize at you.

The vast majority of people use Google. If Microsoft and Google release their AI models into their search engines at a similar time, people won't really feel the need to switch from Google to Bing, even if it's better. At least the majority of people wouldn't care that much. It's not like your average person is following this closely. Likewise people who use Bing probably won't switch to Google.

It's going to be expensive. I grabbed a huge envelope. Even assuming one cent per request, Google would have to pay tens of millions per hour at least. How will they earn it back? I think they won't for several years. Unless they keep the service minimal and do something clever. My friend Fred says that Facebook will surprise us with something in a few months. And they might even offer images alongside the text albeit not high resolution.
