~~~ To the ChatGPT Team ~~~ I'm currently receiving answers FROM OTHER USERS with this new version from 30 Jan, completely unrelated to my question: Q: Why is it easier for me to do endurance training on an empty stomach?

I've been using the GPT-3 playground for a few months, and it seems more powerful and a lot cheaper (at least for my moderate usage). You can still have a conversation with it just by appending new prompts to the bottom. For those willing to pay $20 for ChatGPT+, could you share your rationale for choosing it over the above?
With ChatGPT you have none of that complexity. All the fine tuning choices are made for you. That is a huge advantage to general populace.
If there is a guide to get EXACT results that ChatGPT gives you on the OPEN AI playground I'd be interested in seeing those settings.

You underestimate how powerful it already is. Have you tried Copilot or coding with ChatGPT? If this is the very first iteration it won't be long before many developers are fully replaced.
People are seriously in denial about how powerful this is. As you said this is just the beginning
HN loves to quote this, but when the dung hits the propeller, many can't see that they are just as expendable as anyone else.
I think it can be legitimately useful, but it also feels like it could be met with a lot of weird looks. Especially with the narratives of it doing your job for you.
I wonder if we’ll hear interesting stories of people trying to get work to buy them access to ChatGPT.
Premium pricing. I would have been okay with $10/mo, this is pushing it. Let's see how long this lasts and whether they'll introduce a lower tier.
ChatGPT is exploring a paid model. What's the most that would you/your employer would be willing to pay per user for a ChatGPT subscription?
It's fun, but not worth money 14 (35%)

> You realize that near human-level AI for $20/month is a bargain ChatGPT isn't remotely “near human-level AI”, though.
Uhh have you used it? It's pretty close. Its not always correct but neither are humans.its generally pretty correct and extremely fast.
Yes.
> It's pretty close.
No, its not, even in its narrow domain, whose narrowness by itself demonstrates its not anything like a near-human-level intelligence.
> Its not always correct but neither are humans.
Its a very good text generator, and is very useful. Its nothing even similar to a human-level intelligence.

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.
It is, it's libgen + commoncrawl + wikidump + a bunch of other datasets. OpenAI claim that commoncrawl is roughly 60% of its total training corpus and they also claim they use the other datasets listed. They probably also have some sort of proprietary Q&A/search query corpus via Microsoft.
I'm having trouble finding a source for the libgen claim. Is that confirmed or just rumor?

what sad times we live in
I find it truly fascinating that "machine learning company doesn't want powerful tool to be weaponized for bigoted ends" and "modern citizens following major media expect their media to treat weaponized AI as a bad thing" makes times sad. From my perspective, a ChatGPT in the hands of the worst of our society pumping out endless telegram, whatsapp, instagram, twitter etc bigotry and propaganda would be a far sadder t…
If something as important as this is that fragile, what's the plan to fix and strengthen it? Is there anything serious, better than just putting a blind eye and pretending the issue doesn't exist by hoping that only the "good" parties will ever have such technologies?

This is one of those puzzling things to me. You own your life - why not spend your own money for the things that make you and your life better? Who cares? I worked at a job where I had a small, crappy monitor. I made decent cash. I just bought a large decent monitor and brought it into work. I ended up using it for many years. My life was significantly better. I've done that at several jobs since then, and NEVER regr…
The issue is once you buy a monitor for your work, they're then getting to rent it for free. If you need something to do your job better than they need to pay for it. You hurt yourself (financially) and you are contributing to a workplace culture where employees buy what they need. It's not just a monitor you're paying for! To be clear, I am not judging you. You did what was good for you and took the path of least re…
