The release of GPT-3 was a huge milestone that led to a change in how most people perform daily tasks.
There's no doubt it's one of the most important language prediction models!
In fact, GPT3's Neural Networks have remarkable problem-solving capabilities.
The way it understands human language has also exceeded our wildest dreams.
Some areas of great impact include UI/UX Design, Software Development and Content Creation.
Without further ado, let's explore how GPT-3 has revolutionized AI!
What is a Large Language Model?
AI's tools and methods build advanced systems that can complete tasks that typically require human intervention.
Some AI models can even work autonomously and learn from past interactions!
For years, AI systems focused on simple tasks with high levels of human supervision.
That was until Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) allowed the development of Natural Language Processing (NLP) Models.
These models later evolved to become the Large Language Models (LLMs) that have revolutionized the world.
And this evolution includes GPT-3 and its predecessors, GPT-1 and GPT-2!
Why were they such game-changers? Because they can comprehend and generate human-like text with impressive coherence.
This scope made users feel they were interacting with an actual person. Some even believe these models are sentient!
Modern versions can summarize text and answer complex questions on a variety of topics, from physics to product development.
What is GPT3?
Also known as GPT3 or GPT 3, this is one of the largest and most influential models ever created.
What's more, its name comes from the acronym for Generative Pre-Trained Transformer.
Besides it working on already given data (which makes it Pre-Trained), it has two other main components.
The Generative edge describes its primary goal and the Transformer means that it uses a Transformer Architecture.
Lastly, the 3 in the end clarifies that the model is on its third version.
The model has helped businesses reach never-before-seen productivity levels, with ChatGPT as its most used application.
One of the reasons GPT-3-powered apps became so popular was their chatting capabilities.
These apps offered users the possibility of talking with platforms and applications to ask questions in plain English.
Yes, it's worth noticing that it can give nonsensical content from time to time.
But it's also true that GPT3 became a go-to platform for several companies at all market levels.
The Neural Networks used in the Transformer Architecture also opened the door to more stellar AI tools.
Midjourney is a great example of it!
Similar to ChatGPT, it allows users to interact with it using English prompts to create high-quality images.
GPT3 Evolution
In 2027, Google researchers published the paper "Attention is All You Need."
Here, they introduced the Transformer Architecture that quickly became a leap in Natural Language Processing.
This architecture analyzes sequences of tokens in human text to make impressive predictions.
As a result, it allows LLMs to understand complex relationships between distant words in long pieces of text.
That was the base OpenAI used for its GPT1 and its updated versions, GPT2 and GPT3.
Thanks to Transformers, GPT-3 can write poetry, make jokes, and even make hard translations.
In its 3.5 version, the GPT received around 175 billion parameters in training data.
This helped it achieve unprecedented levels of accuracy and coherence.
But how has GPT evolved, and what are GPT3's limits?
GPT3 and Dall-E
OpenAI entered the world of art generators with DallE, its T2I (Text-To-Image) product.
The popularity of this GenAI tool skyrocketed, allowing tons of businesses to optimize processes.
With ChatGPT and Dall-E 3, OpenAI recasted several fields, such as UI/UX Design and Product Development.
In this way, professional were able to harvest ideas while reserving their human-based intuition
GPT4 and Sora
Once again, OpenAI knocked it out of the park when it released its GPT4 model.
In fact, our introduction to GPT-4 included watching it build a Discord bot in a few minutes and debug its code.
It also enclosed GPT4 processing images as input and turning them into HTML and CSS code. It was absolutely mind-blowing!
OpenAI later announced its latest AI tool for video generation, Sora.
Just like Midjourney, can generate stunning, hyper-realistic images in seconds.
Like with most Generative AI tools, users can use text instructions (T2V) in plain English to create beautiful scenes up to 60 seconds.
With this fantastic product, OpenAI aimed to help users solve problems requiring real-world interactions.
Tools like this can surely have countless applications for users, teams and businesses!
GPT3 Limits and Controversy
While Machine Learning models are great, they're not flawless.
They still make "hallucinations" or invent responses on occasion.
Even the data used to train the most modern models like GPT-4 is not fully updated!
In fields like Software Development, it may provide code snippets from outdated documentation.
That's why you should be careful about how you use the given information.
Unfortunately, people can also attempt to GPT creation tools with wrong intentions.
GenAI tools have access to hundreds of billions of words.
As a result, it's fairly hard to prevent things like bigotry, sexism, and hateful content.
OpenAI has implemented robust safety measures in all its AI models,.
Yet, even though safety has improved a lot, AI models might still produce harmful content.
On the other hand, AI in general has brought ethical concerns in industries like art and entertainment.
Plenty of artists are pretty unhappy about AI-produced art.
Actors are also concerned about how AI will impact their sector in the near future.
In 2023, the Writers Guild of America (WGA) went on strike, and while motives were much larger, AI as also part of the discussion.
The WGA raised concerns over the use of Artificial Intelligence to create scripts and automate content creation.
These concerns were related with both artistic integrity while also leading to unemployment.
At the moment of publishing this article AI doesn't seem to be taking people's jobs.
But it's important to balance human minds with technology to achieve successful, user-centered outcomes!
Conclusion
GPT3 is one of the most influential and largest models ever created!
Its language understanding capabilities made it incredibly useful to optimize operational costs and improve customer experiences.
We cannot wait to see what can OpenAI do next!
