seeing very early but really impressive demos of using language interfaces to control computers. the leverage on human ability and creativity we are going to see in the next decade from these tools will be quite something to behold!

Figuring out how to harness pretrained LLMs to accomplish magical things (outside of text) may be THE place to be in tech over the next 5 years.
AI research is converging on a major finding: language models are a great substrate for all AI applications. This feels like a HUGE deal. Some examples:

Still don't want to be talking to a computer when I'm surrounded by other people. Barely even when alone

Very curious how the interface prototypes you’re seeing solve the “invisible affordances” problem that plagues voice assistants

A lot of people still think language-driven interfaces are about things like speech recognition, but really they are about being able to communicate/infer intent. The move from command-drive to intent-driven interfaces is going to change software linkedin.com/pulse/language-…

About this - Look at what @gerard_sgs built using GPT-3 on top of @Fermat_ws

Don't forget to check if it fits MAYA (Most Advanced Yet Acceptable). Many new tech are just too futuristic and therefore lack wide adoption.

These companies are going to grow so fast that VCs will not be able to compete. Angels or even Credit Cards will be enough to get these companies up and running with a clear path to profitability. Why waste time with VCs?

DALL-E is case in point!
