I don't really understand that. ChatGPT is not all that impressive as an actual tool for many things. It doesn't really seem to matter to me what energy and compute is going into it. Will it make it actually work?

If you consider the best frontier LLM in the world "not that impressive," I'm curious to know what you think is

I think the point is not "chatGPT isn't good", it's that no one is beating physics, you can rough out the coefficients on a napkin, and they're playing chicken with who wants to set more piles of money on fire.

It _is_ the best frontier LLM in the world, and virtually the entire global population of people who care about that are in this thread

This will change when the rumors turn out to be true and Apples Siri is powered by OpenAI and a billion people have a working conversational AI in their pocket.

I agree that this will happen (I said in another post), but I can't for the life of me attach it to one of the points I made
