Snippet from the article:

But some investors argue that the big tech companies’ generative AI models will not necessarily capture most value because they are becoming increasingly commoditised and may be outcompeted by smaller open-source models. More money may be made by companies that have proprietary data in a particular industry and can leverage generative AI models to address specific use cases. “That is our investment strategy,” says Hemant Taneja, chief executive of the VC firm General Catalyst.

But VCs are also anxiously reviewing the valuations of their existing investment portfolios, given the disruptive impact it will have on all software businesses. Over the past few weeks, three start-up founders have told me they have had to junk their original business plans because of the launch this year of OpenAI’s more powerful GPT-4 model, rendering their use of earlier versions obsolete. Such is the speed of the technology’s evolution that start-ups and VCs are wary of betting too much on any one generative AI model for fear it will soon seem archaic.

I was becoming very frustrated with the slow speed (often over 1.5 - 2 min) of ChatGPT4 w/ browser, so decided to test it against it's competitors including some times until the response is completed (though onenote crashed and I lost most of the timing data).

1. ChatGPT4 with browser - usually takes 1.5-2 min
2. ChaGPT4 with [Web Requests] plugin around 1:30 to 5 min
3. ChaGPT4 with [WebPilot] plugin 0:50 to :130
4. ChaGPT4 with [Access Link] plugin - around 50 sec
5. Bing Creative - around 40 seconds
6. Bard - 5-7 seconds

These are screenshots of a table on a 4k monitor, so if the type is small, try downloading the images and zooming in. Tried exporting to PDF but the results were broken PDFs.

The chatgpt4 browser and it's web plugins often failed to give results or broke and sometimes gave decent results.

Which would you use?

THis is the primary way I access AI bots - you give a query to whichever AI engines you want and see the results come simultaneously so you can compare.

To access ChatGPT-4 (and a few of the others) you need to use your login.

BTW I find Claude is as good, if not better, than ChatGPT-4 often.

I put my name forward to moderate if help is needed. I was a 10+ year user on Reddit and have moderated some of my own, albeit low user, subreddits before.

The huge issue with reddits ChatGPT forum is that there was far too much low quality posting and memes, with basically no moderation from any mods.
