Suprahuman NLP with GPT-3 transformer models
GPT-3 is built on the GPT-2 architecture. However, a fully trained GPT-3 transformer is a foundation model. A foundation model can do many tasks it wasn’t trained for. GPT-3 completion applies all NLP tasks and even programming tasks.
GPT-3 is one of the few fully trained transformer models that qualify as a foundation models. GPT-3 will no doubt lead to more powerful OpenAI models. Google will produce foundation models beyond the Google BERT version they trained on their supercomputers. Foundation models represent a new way of thinking about AI.
It will not take long for companies to realize they do not need a data scientist or an AI specialist to start an NLP project with an API like the one that OpenAI provides.
Why bother with any other tool? An OpenAI API is available with access to one of the most efficient transformer models trained on one of the most powerful supercomputers in the world.
Why develop...
