Reply to comment by suflaj in [Discussion] What happened to r/NaturalLanguageProcessing ? by MadNietzsche

GPT-4 would understand the point he’s making

“The point being made here is twofold:

The user is praising ChatGPT for its effectiveness in writing sales emails for difficult clients, highlighting how it has streamlined their workload by replacing the need for an additional staff member and allowing them to multitask.

The user is also critiquing the choice of words used by someone else ("humiliated" and "jailbroken") in the given context, suggesting that the person may not have a proper understanding of the situation.

The logical conclusion drawn from these points is that ChatGPT is a valuable tool that can significantly improve efficiency in handling tasks like sales emails, while also implying that it is important to use appropriate terminology and demonstrate a clear understanding of a situation when discussing or debating any issue.”

I understand what the user is saying, I do not understand how it relates to anything said before that.

Sadly, while GPT4 may be able to predict the next token based on studying the language's syntax thoroughly, it still fails to actually understand anything. Unless the original commenter is a bot, I would expect them to explain how what they said has anything to do with my comment, or the claims made about NLP researcher's obsolescence due to its release.

What you don’t understand is it took 2 yrs to go from nothing to gpt-4. Do you understand how unbelievably fast that is? A tsunami of money is about to pour into this industry!

It took more than 6 years from zero, because to reach GPT4 you had to develop transformers and all the GPTs before 4... The actual difference between ChatGPT and GPT4 is apparently in the data and some policies that regulate when it is allowed to answer (which are still incomplete). This is not remarkable.

I AGAIN fail to see how this relates to previous comments.
