We need a proper, competitive and open source model. Otherwise we are all fucked up.

I'm interested in the cost of gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct. I've got a basic website using text-davinci-003 that I would like to launch but can't because text-davinci-003 is too expensive. I've tried using just gpt-3.5-turbo but it won't work because I'm expecting a formatted JSON to be returned and I can just never get consistency.
You need to use the new OpenAI Functions API. It is absolutely bonkers at returning formatted results. I can get it to return a perfectly formatted query-graph a few levels deep.

#283Wait for what!? Christmas? When we can open our presents and have a GPT 4 inside?
It's like they took a leaf from Google's "how to guarantee the failure of a new product" marketing. That is: restrict access, ensuring that to word-of-mouth marketing can't possibly work because none of your friends are allowed to try the product.
The announcement here is "general availability" of the GPT-4 model...
...but not the 32K context model. Not the multi-modal version with image input. No fine-tuning. Only one model (chat).
As of today, I can only access GPT 3.5 via Azure Open AI service and the Open AI API account that I have.
What's the point of all these arbitrary restrictions on who can access what model!?
I can use GPT 4 via Chat, but not an API. I can use an enhanced version of Dall-E via Bing Image Creator, but not the OpenAI API. Some vendors that have been blessed by the Great and Benevolent Sam Altman have access to GPT-4 32K, the rest of us don't.
Sell the product, not the access to it.
Don't be like the Soviet Union, where you had to "know someone" to get access.

I've never seen "nerf" used colloquially and today i've seen it at least a half-dozen times across various sites. Y'all APIs?
it's popular with gamers to describe the way certain weapons/items get modified by the game developer to perform worse. buffing is the opposite, when an item gets better.
Re: GPT-4 API General Availability
#285The drip-feeding seems crazy to me. Open AI is undermining their reputation by forcing almost everybody to use the older, lower-quality models. Even if customers are willing to pay for GPT 4, they're being told to wait at the back of the line. Wait for what!? Christmas? When we can open our presents and have a GPT 4 inside?

Re: GPT-4 API General Availability
#286Biggest news here from a capabilities POV is actually the gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct model. gpt-3.5-turbo is the model behind ChatGPT. It's chat-fine-tuned which makes it very hard to use for use-cases where you really just want it to obey/complete without any "chatty" verbiage. The "davinci-003" model was the last instruction tuned model, but is 10x more expensive than gpt-3.5-turbo, so it makes economical sense to hack…

Think of the properties you want in the JSON object, then send those to ChatGPT as required parameters for a function (even if that function doesn't exist).
# Definition of our local function(s).
# This is effectively telling ChatGPT what we're going to use its JSON output for.
# Send this alongside the "model" and "messages" properties in the API request.
functions = [
{
"name": "write_post",
"description": "Shows the title and summary of some text.",
"parameters": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"title": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Title of the text output."
},
"summary": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Summary of the text output."
}
}
}
}
]
I've found it's not perfect but still pretty reliable – good enough for me combined with error handling.If you're interested, I wrote a blog post with more detail: https://puppycoding.com/2023/07/07/json-object-from-chatgpt-...
Re: GPT-4 API General Availability
#287>Developers wishing to continue using their fine-tuned models beyond January 4, 2024 will need to fine-tune replacements atop the new base GPT-3 models (ada-002, babbage-002, curie-002, davinci-002), or newer models (gpt-3.5-turbo, gpt-4). Once this feature is available later this year, we will give priority access to GPT-3.5 Turbo and GPT-4 fine-tuning to users who previously fine-tuned older models. We acknowledge…

#289> "Starting today, all paying API customers have access to GPT-4." OK maybe I'm stupid but I am a paying OpenAI API customer and I don't have it yet. I see: gpt-3.5-turbo-16k gpt-3.5-turbo gpt-3.5-turbo-16k-0613 gpt-3.5-turbo-0613 gpt-3.5-turbo-0301 I don't see any gpt-4 Edit: Probably my problem is that I upgraded to paid API account within the last month, so I'm not technically a "paying API customer" yet according…

(I'm an engineer at OpenAI) Very sorry to hear about these issues, particularly the timeouts. Latency is top of mind for us and something we are continuing to push on. Does streaming work for your use case? https://github.com/openai/openai-cookbook/blob/main/examples... We definitely want to investigate these and the billing issues further. Would you consider emailing me your org ID and any request IDs (if you have t…
While you're here, you should know that the logic for enabling GPT-4 API access is excluding Microsoft for Startups ( https://openai.com/microsoft-for-startups ) orgs which have valid billing against Microsoft-provided credits. Presumably, this is an oversight as it wouldn't make sense to exclude pre-existing Microsoft partners. Would you mind escalating this?
