#32Where every idiot with a Google account/Microsoft account/phone number can sign up for their service and start churning out tokens per second by the query, I'd say it's pretty open to the public. The far more closed alternative would be to keep it invite only, granted only towards a set of elites, at select companies. Only OpenAI knows how much $20/user is charging them, but for the price insensitive wealthy, after b…

That’s like saying generative AI is not real AI.

#36I agree with that sentiment, but think you should still give them credit for making whisper open source.

#37Aww. I was hoping for an extension that allows you to publish your ChatGPT transcripts to a public database, and search the database for existing prompts+responses. Maybe some sort of tagging and rating feature.

I guess GPT is advanced enough to write HN posts now?
