GPT-3 Explorer

[est31]

Initially I thought: wow, finally I can play with GPT-3 without going through the closed beta application process. But the tool requires an OpenAI API key. The linked website doesn't specify that with a single word. It's only mentioned on Github.

I've been there myself tbh. When you have worked a lot on something, it's often hard to take a step back and specify all of the basic things that people first exposed to your invention don't know about.

"OpenAI" == Orwellian DoubleSpeak

Its literally one of the most closed projects in existence. The fact they call it "OpenAI" is an insult.

I am looking forward to all the new AI startups that launch when the OpenAI GPT-3 API goes out of beta. Their secret sauce will be nothing more than a handcrafted prompt, which would be like launching a company based on a fancy SQL query used to query a 3rd party database.

[phreeza]

And then the gnashing of teeth 2 years later when the terms or the availability of the API change, making half of the startups nonviable.

I'm already dreading all the SEO spam it will lead to.

[tehsauce]

I'm more curious to see what happens when single developers are able to launch products which are vastly better than existing solutions, using just a couple days of effort.

How do we get a key? I "applied" by saying i'm interested in it however I have no idea if that has even 1 in 1000 chance of getting me approved :(

I've met people who applied to it at different times. None have got the key yet, including me. I don't think they are handing out many api keys. They probably had some sort of limit in mind when they launched and they probably reached it already. Unless you're a company or individual they are particularly interested in, I think the chances of getting it in the near future are quite slim :(

I applied with, I think, a reasonable use case, but no word either. I don't have much hope to try it in practice anytime soon.

[sxxahsuxh]

I jokingly said i wanted to have the key so I could replace journalist's jobs.

Still no luck on getting the key.

[jjoergensen]

I did the same a long time ago. No key yet, but waiting patiently and in excitement.

[dedoussis]

Looks very promising (although I have no API key)!

Feature request: I got surprised when I was asked to sign in. Introduce an anonymous mode where "Sign in with Google" is not enforced. History could be exported locally and imported from the file system.

I keep coming to these threads to read about GUID Partition Tables and disappointed someone is using the initials for something else.

Does anyone know if they'll ever release the models for GPT-3 so we can train/re-train then ourselves? Or is GPT-3 so general that it doesn't need retraining?

[junipertea]

I don’t know if they will release the models, but are you sure you can train a 170 billion parameter model? Last I heard it’s around 500GB, which would require serious infrastructure.

This is cool! Excited to try it.

Although the API is already pretty experimentation and REPL-friendly. I recorded a video here of the development experience: https://twitter.com/amasad/status/1286813984159444992

[trzeci]

If GPT-3 was trained on the Internet and even if some information is publicly available, then solution described might be somehow legally protected. Does GPT-3 recognises that?

Can I request a share in selling of GPT-3 license if I prove that uses my solutions?
