Reply to comment by Donkeytonkers in Snapchat is releasing its own AI chatbot powered by ChatGPT by nick7566

I somewhat agree because these models are basically a black box and it's only going to get worse. To play devil's advocate however I will say that since Snapchat is essentially paying for API access they won't be able to do anything with the model that OpenAI doesn't allow. They still hold the keys so far.

True about the API access but that is only a matter of time (very short time around the corner) until Bing enters the ring with their API. Not to mention any number of other large players IE Tencent, Amazon, Meta, Google etc. once they start giving API access there will be hundreds if not thousands of AI branches coming out at exponential accelerated pace once we start mastering AI coded apps.

Idk if you know this but Microsoft basically owns OpenAI (ChatGPT / GPT3) already and has for a while

They don’t own it, but they’re heavily invested in it. I don’t know what percentage their $10bn investment gave them but I don’t think they have control over OpenAI. I’m sure they have a very loud voice in the room though.

Not a black box its just a blackbox to the average person...

Blackbox in the sense that it's very difficult to detect what the outputs will be given a set of inputs currently. They definitely can be understood at higher levels of abstraction but I think it'll be awhile before the "emergent" behaviors these models sometimes display is well understood.
