If you want to know the state of deep learning today, look at GPT-3. It is a microcosm of the best and worst in AI. That’s why we named it to this year’s list of 10 Breakthrough Technologies. https://t.co/9OneIGwfNF — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

GPT-3’s abilities also make it hard to ignore AI’s growing problems... — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

Despite the incredibly convincing passages of text it can churn out, GPT-3 doesn’t do anything really new. What it shows instead is that size can be everything. — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

Debates were even sparked about whether GPT-3 was the first artificial general intelligence. Spoiler alert: It’s not. https://t.co/getWdSnoyq — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

When people started to try GPT-3 for themselves last summer, thousands of examples of its versatility flooded social media. — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

GPT-3 isn’t the only large language model to appear in 2020. Microsoft, Google, and Facebook all announced their own. But GPT-3 was the best generalist by far. And it gives the impression it can write anything. — PolitiTweet.org
