>If anything, GPT-3 is too tied to the real world. Like a search engine, it can quickly find the answer to almost any practical question. What we're trying to figure out is if it can do anything else.

I disagree, for what it is GPT could still be incredibly powerful. No person can hold all of human knowledge in their head but could GPT reasonably approach that and be able to answer almost any question that Humans have already answered? That would be incredible imo. It's Google on steroids. All the worlds information queryable in plain "english".

It's not at an all powerful Oracle that we can ask about how to perfect Fusion power or build Warp Drives but it can still do some incredible things.



Google is easy to query in plain English. ask "how many miles from London to Paris?" and you'll get a concrete, factual answer. Same as gpt-3
