I am looking forward to all the new AI startups that launch when the OpenAI GPT-3 API goes out of beta. Their secret sauce will be nothing more than a handcrafted prompt, which would be like launching a company based on a fancy SQL query used to query a 3rd party database.

And then the gnashing of teeth 2 years later when the terms or the availability of the API change, making half of the startups nonviable.

How do we get a key? I "applied" by saying i'm interested in it however I have no idea if that has even 1 in 1000 chance of getting me approved :(

with enough resource you can recreate what the paper describes. I'm still not sure if this stuff useful to sell as a service though

Initially I thought: wow, finally I can play with GPT-3 without going through the closed beta application process. But the tool requires an OpenAI API key. The linked website doesn't specify that with a single word. It's only mentioned on Github.

I've been there myself tbh. When you have worked a lot on something, it's often hard to take a step back and specify all of the basic things that people first exposed to your invention don't know about.

I did the same a long time ago. No key yet, but waiting patiently and in excitement.

You could also just steal OpenAI's cluster in a midnight heist, that might be easier.

"OpenAI" == Orwellian DoubleSpeak

Its literally one of the most closed projects in existence. The fact they call it "OpenAI" is an insult.

I'm already dreading all the SEO spam it will lead to.
