Dreaming of the day I run my own models and can be entirely responsible for my own outages.

You can do that today depending on what you need from the models.

Let's say I'm writing Flask code all day, and I need help with various parts of my code. Can I do it today or not? With questions like, "How to add 'Log in with Google' to the login screen" etc.

I was gonna say that this is Bard's chance to shine, but it looks like Bard is also having an outage!

I was going to say that we need to grab our tin foil hats, this can't be an coincidence :D

URGENT - Does anyone have an alternative to OpenAI's embeddings API? I do have alternative to GPT's API (e.g. Anthropic Claude) but I'm not able to use them without embeddings API (used to generate semantic representation of my knowledge base and also to create embeddings from user's queries). We need to have an alternative to OpenAI's embeddings as a fallback in case of outages.

This reminds us that, what if our databases are maintained using OpenAI's embeddings, and the API suddenly goes down? How do we find alternatives to match the already generated database?

Grok is going to be awesome

In what ways?

It'll have frequent downtime and nobody will panic when it does.

The AI “apocalypse” that has been feared may end up being something more like a mass outage that can’t be fixed fast enough

Bard devs secretly built it on top of OpenAI's api? /s

gotta plug the good old fashion organic gpt in our heads back

Johnny GPTeptonic, apart from being hard to vocalise, would suggest something else entirely.

What about Johnny GPTonic?

Well I guess this is the best time to say that HuggingFace hosts many open source chat models, one of my favorites is a finetuned version of Mistral 7B: https://huggingface.co/spaces/HuggingFaceH4/zephyr-chat

To my knowledge, you cannot mix embeddings from different models. Each dimension has a different meaning for each model.
