Phind is pretty good for coding (LLama 2 trained on billions of extra code tokens) and is still up https://www.phind.com/s

I’ve had some consistency issues with phind but as a whole I have no real complaints, just glitches here and there with large prompts not triggering responses and reply options disappearing.

As a whole I think it works well in tandem with ChatGPT to bounce ideas or get alternate perspectives.

(I also love the annotation feature where it shows the websites that it pulled the information from, very well done)

Grok is going to be awesome

It sure doesn’t look like it. The announcement was strange and anti-climatic, and it started making excuses for itself immediately “Grok is still a very early beta product – the best we could do with 2 months of training”. It has the Elon stink all over it.

Upgraded to "major" now. How am I supposed to get any work done!

I was forced to Google something earlier. It's like when you discover 'craft' coffee/beer/baked goods/whatever and then go back and try the mass market stuff. How did I ever live like this?

Do a blind taste test and you know what I’ll bet you’d be surprised

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?

I don't think you can do that easily. If you already have a list of embeddings from a different model, you might be able to generate an alignment somehow, but in general, I wouldn't recommend it.

Azure OpenAI Service is up, and provides the same models as OpenAI https://azure.status.microsoft/status

Is it still "private" as in you have to request access?

All tech folks should just get a PTO today . #ChatGPT_outage Am I supposed to use Google and Stack overflow ? That’s like going back to roll down windows in a car :)

Just like how contacting the CEO of GitHub when Github goes down almost every week, have your tried contacting the CEO of OpenAI this time? /s

Maybe @sama can help you (or anyone else that has a ChatGPT wrapper app) :P
