The performance of GPT-4 has been understated. OpenAI’s Chief Scientist went on record to confirm that they were ‘wrong’ to ever publish details about models ( 16/Mar/2023 ). OpenAI hid all technical details about the model, including token and parameter counts, architecture, and training dataset. I find this to be especially egregious given that OpenAI planned on ‘delaying deployment of GPT-4 by a further six months ’ ( paper ) before making the model more generally available. This included OpenAI’s President giving his former company Stripe early access to the model. Some ‘friends’ of OpenAI got access to the GPT-4 model 8 months ago, in August 2022. OpenAI cronyism and preferential treatment. The reasons for my fear around this particular model are many, and I address each of them in the livestream ( replay ). We've got to be careful here… we are a little bit scared of this. I’ve generally avoided using that word, and even chastised media for using it, preferring the word ‘exhilarating’ and sometimes ‘confronting’ to describe post-2020 AI.Ī few hours after my livestream, OpenAI’s CEO also went live, admitting that he feels the same way. In my recent livestream about GPT-4 ( watch the replay ), I commented-for perhaps the first time-that the GPT-4 model and its implications are ‘scary’. If you’ve been following my work on post-2020 AI, you will have noticed that I tend towards optimistic. There are over 20 major announcements in this edition.
