We need to start talking about AI safety and nationalizing AI research like yesterday. ChatGPT is already having destabilizing effects and it is frightening how little we are discussing (this hugely powerful tool)'s potential as a weapon.

How could it be dangerous? How could it be used as a weapon?

Nice try, Mr. AI, you'll not get us that easily.

I don't know about your writer's block, but ChatGPT is amazing at going from a sentence or paragraph long description to getting to a single page long story, which is quite enough to get me unblocked. Yeah it won't write the whole book for you but where would the fun be in that?

Absolutely. I built a super simple editor in rails 2 years ago on GPT3 [1] that simply pulls the most recent N words in your document as context and tries three times to complete the next paragraph for you, and just inserts whichever completion you choose directly into your doc. I've written probably 60k+ words over the years using it; doesn't write a whole story for you, but definitely keeps your momentum going any…

This is totally an aside, and I'm not calling you out, but I think it's an interesting topic:

> I've written probably 60k+ words over the years using it

Is this how you view it? You wrote the words?

I personally would kinda view your role as a creative director and curator of gpt completions.

I think it's going to be an interesting decade wrt content creation.

Interesting that there doesn't seem to be any mention of an improved rate limit (unless that is included in "general access"). I end up hitting rate limits quite frequently and having to wait an hour is annoying. I'd gladly pay the $20/mo to avoid this.

ChatGPT is trained on LibGen, among others, no? To the best of my knowledge, all of these generators are taking mountains of content without asking the creators, aka, pirated materials.

I often cited example is to write something in the style of "Dr. Suess". Doesn't this imply that Dr. Suess's books are in the training data set ? How can one find out what other books, screenplays, magazines, etc. are in the training data.

> Doesn't this imply that Dr. Suess's books are in the training data set ?

Or maybe that lots of people online like to write (and challenge each other to write) in the style of Dr. Seuss.

$20 seems reasonable. I wonder how are they going to deal with "unreasonable intensive usage" aka people/companies offering "AI" in their products when in reality they just act as a proxy between people paying them ( sometimes a lot of money ) and OpenAI.

$20 is the very first price tier introduced at the very outset of what could be one of the most powerful companies of our generation. Google.com adding a single yellow box with an advertisement seemed reasonable, too. Anyone else having serious concerns about the direction this is going? At my wife's company they have already largely replaced an hourly data classification job with ChatGPT. This announcement is the fi…

You realize that near human-level AI for $20/month is a bargain in a country where typical mobile phone plan is $25+, and is basically universally affordable?

Is there never going to be a version with less restrictions and filters? That would really be worth paying for.

I'll bet (ever increasing) restrictions and filters will become the norm for these "open-ended" services. Only OSS will break them. With so much money in play now, Managers are in charge, and Risk management is their favourite toy. Copyright risk, reputational risk, security risk, you name it.

Well, everyone remembers Tay.

If you want cheaper, can’t you use the Azure OpenAI service? For this it seems more like you’re paying for the interface than ChatGPT itself.

As a counter-point, the average user can navigate to a website and put in some queries. They can't (and don't know about) Azure and cloud computing.

The future is bifurcated into those who invested in AI companies in the 2020s, and those on UBI.
