When ChatGPT first arrived, it felt amazing and revolutionary. Since then it's been so neutered that while still feeling pretty cool, it's settling into gimmick level :( .
I can promise you most ChatGPT users don't even know what a GPT is. That's like saying if you own an Apple Silicon Macbook then you must know what ARM architecture is.
What's the most interesting to me is that ChatGPT is not much better than Davinci has been recently. The hype is all down to the improved 1st party UI that mimicks a chat room. The old playground or API interfaces have a barrier to entry that's just enough to keep the magic hidden from the general population.
Still have a hard time understanding people who refuse to look at the data and benchmarks myself. Chatgpt was a game changer and let the cat out of the bag, but it’s not far ahead anymore.
