When bandwidth increases, latency decreases. We're going to be able to get significantly higher throughput than we were previously able to. This is already happening.
This is already happening. ??
If you look at the leap from GPT-3 -> GPT-4 in terms of hallucinations and capabilities etc, and you combine that with advances in cognitive architecture like reflexion and AutoGPT, it's pretty clear the trajectory is one of becoming increasingly competent and trustworthy.
The degree to which you need to check it's work depends on your use case, level of risk tolerance, and methods for verification. I think one of the reasons AI art has absolutely exploded is because there's no consequences for a generation that fails and it can be verified instantly. Compare that to doing your taxes where it's high stakes if you get it wrong, you're far less likely to rely on it. There is a landscape of usefulness with different peaks and valleys.
You should also take note of the warnings in the GPT-4 manual, it's a much more convincing liar than GPT-3. Quite explicitly says that.
My fear is that I just get lazy and trust it all the time.

What are you talking about exactly?
My point with the AI art comment is that not every output of these models is something that needs to go to production! There's a continuum of how much something matters if it's wrong, and it depends on who is consuming the output and what it is they need to do with it, and the degree to which other stakeholders are involved.
