Fear tinged with giddy excitement lingers in the air around chatgpt3.5. Do not under any circumstances interface with chatgpt or anything resembling or utilising it. If you want to have it, download the MIT (ish) licensed GPT2 from Microsoft Github https://github.com/openai/gpt-2 and its academic publication (Amazon Cloudfront) d4mucfpksywv.cloudfront.net/better-language-models/language-models.pdf There is also its low quality dataset (web links to outside reddit posted on reddit for a few years) and the retrospective leading into gpt3: https://openai.com/blog/gpt-2-1-5b-release/ Now if you wanted GPT, you have it. Due to the MIT license, when openai drop public access to gpt-2, other people can freely share it. GPT3 (chatgpt) has not been licensed to you, meaning it is all-rights-reserved. Consider the chatgpt-pro and other test products. Single ply toilet-paper is worthless, however neither the expensive machinery nor the raw fibre to manufacture it are available to you. If you interact with a public toilet, you will experience single ply toilet-paper. The machinery is enterprise graphics cards - able to sequentially distribute low-quality processing tasks amoungst lots of low-quality processors, having built-in timing heuristics and memory caches that can be used with some efficiency for this purpose. The low quality fibre is a lifetime of invasive and encompassing spying on you personally and almost every other person. Doing this to people is a clear crime with the cost born by each victim. Imagine a classic job-application scenario. On one side is a business with some government contract, and on the other side is you putting your best foot forward hoping to be hired rather than the business tilting to an international corporate effective sub-contract. Now remember your rival has detailed data (erroneously remarketed as anonymous metadata) on every second of your life. What you watch is broadcast by your rival. Your choices of posts to read online throughout your life were selected by your rival. Your every tic and product purchase, your mouse movements, what websites you visit, when, for how long and where you eat, with whom, what bathrooms you use and how you walk there, video and audio recordings you were caught in, though you can't even remember all of these for the past week, for your entire life, are owned and archived by your rival. And it's not just you. Your rival has everything on the person interviewing you as well. Their boss, coworker, love interest, the shareholders. Your love interest - or what would have been your love interest had they not been pulled away. Parents and siblings, all of whom creepily talk about how much they love and appreciate your rival every moment of their lives. The interview outcome left something to be desired (for you and your interviewer as well actually). But it wasn't just this job interview. This scenario is being replayed every single moment of your life. And everyone else's. People in their early mid twenties have never even touched a world without it. Things are bad.
