I worked for a startup called Powerset in 2007 that tried to build something like this. We spent $100M and it was bought by MSFT to become Bing in 2008.
A single engineer can now build something that is literally an order of magnitude better in less than an hour with GPT-3. https://twitter.com/paraschopra/status/1284801028676653060">https://twitter.com/paraschop...

Even the way you use the GPT-3 API is wild.
You just pass it a text string with what you want it do in plain English (or give it a few examples) until it does what you want.
I mean it sounds like I& #39;m oversimplifying it but I& #39;m really not:

I mean it sounds like I& #39;m oversimplifying it but I& #39;m really not:
e.g. to build a search engine, you send:
"This is a Q&A session between a human and an AI that knows everything.
Q: <Query>
A:"
If you replace <Query> with "What is human life expectancy in the United States?", then it would send back: "78.6 years." < Actual GTP-3 response.

This means all of the mindblowing GPT-3 demos you& #39;re seeing on Twitter are just people typing in different plain English prompts to the API like "This is the code for a React app that <app description>" or "This is a summary of the following text <user text>".
That& #39;s it!
That& #39;s it!
If you think the GPT-3 demos are amazing, the API is mindblowing on a meta level.
All of those demos work by *simply describing what you want to do in plain English*.
If you can *describe* it, you can now build it.
We& #39;re just not ready for this. https://twitter.com/Loh/status/1284832205215129601">https://twitter.com/Loh/statu...

Also didn’t mean this as a drag on Powerset. This was an incredible team that I was proud to be part of building a web scale search engine with a new approach in 2007, and it worked.

You could go build a magical command line right now if you integrate the API into a shell and prime GPT-3 with:
“This is a list of plain English sentences translated into shell commands:
English: show all files recursively in path
Shell: ls -Ra
English: <UserQuery>
Shell:”

You can build a tweetstorm button that will add new tweets to any tweetstorm by hooking up a button to the GPT-3 API and just pass it the tweets so far in the thread.

It& #39;s just too easy to build something with GPT-3. I think we& #39;re all going to have a lot of fun with this.
The whole world is going to be in awe of this thing. I& #39;m already blown away.
It& #39;s literally the AI equivalent of having a printing press at your disposal.

GPT-3 is literally going to change the world.
The implications of GPT-3 are so far reaching that I don& #39;t even know where to begin. It& #39;s like the internet was for computing.
GPT-3 is the biggest technological leap since the invention of the computer.

If you& #39;re interested in building something with GPT-3, I recommend just playing around with the API and see what you can build. It& #39;s really fun.
I& #39;m going to keep tweeting my thoughts on this as I try to wrap my head around it.

^ As mentioned above ... the final 3 tweets in this tweetstorm were 100% written by GPT-3.
