I'm inclined to agree in general. GPT has actually gotten worse over time.

For one it's just way too locked down now. But I also have noticed a decline in overall quality of responses, especially for technical stuff. It used to translate between programming languages quite well, and that's been more broken lately.

What's hard is content moderation and community building.

This article was mostly fluff but I haven't seen much ml talk.

I do wish nvidia had more competition, though I somewhat doubt AMD will offer it soon. Having competive performance in PyTorch is a good start.
