I’d rather have a “bicycle for the brain”, so it can go farther, function better and be healthy rather than a crutch or replacement for key functionalities.
Right now, I see a lot of tools and interfaces that make it lazy - mostly consumer level stuff. Perhaps Krug’s Classic “don’t make me think” was taken too far. Perhaps a new book, “make me think better” would be more useful in improving human critical thinking capacity and expanding the human experience.
The successors of GPT-3 might achieve that. They should be able to operate in both text and image/video domain, having all these modalities as both input and output, have a longer context window and be up to date with the recent news/publications in the domains of interest of the user.
But fundamentally it shows it can be done. It's a general language interface to a massive trove of knowledge and can perform a yet undetermined number of symbolic manipulation and reasoning tasks. A future version could be VR enabled, creating a holodeck like experience - something that could prove to be very addictive.
