GPT-3 APIs are now in public beta

Looks neat, but note that OpenAI is basically an App Store model - whatever you make with it cannot be shown to more than five people unless OpenAI has reviewed and explicitly approved your project. And their usage guidelines are pretty narrow - &quot;open-ended chatbots&quot; are explicitly disallowed, for example.<p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beta.openai.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;going-live" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beta.openai.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;going-live</a><p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beta.openai.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;usage-guidelines&#x2F;use-case-guidelines" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beta.openai.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;usage-guidelines&#x2F;use-case-guide...</a>

This is cool but I&#x27;m hesitant to invest any real amount of time building something on this. How do I know that if I build something massively successful they wont shut off my access and build a competitor?

Lots of talk in the comments about the restrictions on gpt3.<p>The <i>reason</i> is that gpt3 has a Jekyll and Hyde personality and can be extremely rude, offensive and unkind. They’re trying to control that because the evil side is very bad publicity for gpt3.

Lots of good OpenAI news lately. In case you missed it in previous threads, feel free to play around with some short stories:<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;toldby.ai" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;toldby.ai</a><p>The API is a bit expensive, but even a $100 monthly budget has been sufficient to run the site above. I&#x27;m still on the lookout for cheaper alternatives though

Shame about the terms of service, because I had a plan to set up a &quot;romantic hotline&quot; on a premium number which would combine GPT-3 text generation with the Chrome text-to-speech API.

There&#x27;s lots of comments about other GPT variants here (GPT Neo, GPT-J, Huggingface, etc), but a big part of the GPT-3 allure for me as a tinkerer is an easy access to an API that I can pay for (since, with all my experiments over a few months, I&#x27;ve spent about $30, which is totally within bounds of fun experimentation)<p>Are there <i>actually</i> any public APIs available for models I don&#x27;t need to run locally on my machine, that perhaps are slightly more permissive than the openai usage guidelines? (FWIW, I mostly use curie, so I&#x27;d be happy with a ~10B model)

Welcome to the end of the internet as we know it, where affiliate marketers and ad sites generate content to flood search engines with results, rendering it near impossible to find quality content.

I have had access to GPT-3 for a long while now, and I love it. I updated my Common Lisp and Clojure books with client examples (you can get free copies at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;leanpub.com&#x2F;u&#x2F;markwatson" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;leanpub.com&#x2F;u&#x2F;markwatson</a> by sliding the price scale to “free”).<p>The code generation is sometimes very impressive, it does a great job at abstractive summarization, I have been having fun by letting it help me write a sci-fi story, etc.<p>Definitely check it out.<p>I have been working with neural networks since the 1980s (DARPA NN Tools advisory panel for a year, commercial applications) and it pleases me greatly to see that deep learning models being part of my engineering stack. I wrote a macOS app for the App Store that uses two DL models, and it is difficult to imagine any company functioning without ML.

Several clones of GPT-3 exist, a few successors that may be a bit better, and even a few leaks of gpt-3 itself.

What the hell is their problem?<p>Why not sell it in an mostly uncontrolled fashion to maximize revenue, marketshare, fame, economy of scale, etc.?<p>I am offended by the idea of people being scared of text produced by AI, text that is ultimately inferior to text produced by professional humans.

The GPT-3 Playground is a powerful oracle. You can start a prompt like &quot;XXXXXX is&quot; and it will answer it for you.

Is it just me or is the example they take for summarization actually bad?<p>&quot;Allison is excited to meet with New Horizon Manufacturing to discuss their photovoltaic window system.&quot;<p>should be<p>&quot;Allison is excited to meet with New Horizon Manufacturing to discuss OUR photovoltaic window system.&quot;

&gt; Could not find record of successful phone verification. [Return to home page]<p>Anyone else just getting this message when they try and sign up?<p>(I did verify my phone number and there seems to be no way to do anything else now)

Anyone know something similar to GPT but isn&#x27;t really &#x27;AI&#x27; but more a blackbox algorithm that you don&#x27;t have to train, and can spit out blogposts given a few bits of initial input?<p>For example, let&#x27;s say I wanted to generate an article about &#x27;why the sky is blue&#x27;. Couldn&#x27;t I just say to the program: &#x27;Yes, use Wikipedia as reference material&#x27;, &#x27;Include 3-4 images with captions too&#x27;, etc<p>I imagine such a tool is in use, it&#x27;s just not possible to know what bloggers use it, since such a tool could be abused to create blogspam on a scale never seen before. In other words: with great power comes great responsibility.

Has anyone here, made anything with the public beta api?
