I played with this and it is super interesting (almost made me register a couple domain names!) That said, to me, it once again reinforces the belief that a large factor in GPT-3 amazingness is the taste in prompting/filtering that humans apply to it, that is, it produces a ton of crap that does not catch our eye that we just silently ignore and discard, but we will amplify and share amongst ourselves the output that…

Computers aren't creative; the excitement about GPT-3 is humans projecting something into its output or filtering the small number of bits that appear to make sense, as you say.

Neural language models are just recycling bits that humans have said before, they address well the "how to say" part of NLG (Natural Language Generation) but fail with respect to the "what to say" part.

"a word that does not exist; it was invented, defined and used by a machine learning algorithm."

I've minimal understanding of AI/ML but from what I think I know, isn't it all based on probability and therefore the quote above that these words don't exist is.. possibly wrong?

a bit NSFW: https://l.thisworddoesnotexist.com/HgkP pussygasm pussy·gasm excessive or erotic fondness for one's genitals "he shared a cocky but disgusting puke and was subjected to even more pussygasm in his younger years"

Although the definition is totally different than the way we used to use the word.

adjective. unprestigious un·pres·ti·gious (of a person) strong, imposing, or impressive "an unprestigious figure during his lifetime"``` ( https://l.thisworddoesnotexist.com/u749 ) Hmm. I think it might need some more work. I mean, there's a strong argument that unprestigious is not a word, but if it was, that certainly would not be the meaning.

This word most definitely does exist: https://l.thisworddoesnotexist.com/SidH
