Reply to comment by Kaarssteun in models superior to GPT-3? by [deleted]

I tried this out just now. It did okay for what it wrote with my prompt, but was super incomplete.

which is what the "generate more" button is for. One click & it extends by 400 tokens. Do that until it's done

Okay, I guess I probably should have just tried clicking it. Often a button with similar text is for something like "try a new prompt."

Overall, pretty decent. Maybe Wikipedia quality in terms of the information? That's actually better than I may have expected. It doesn't seem to be wholesale plagiarized from a website. (I don't have access to Turnitin anymore, and I haven't taken the time to find a free alternative to run it through.) That said, some sections have weird levels of detail, and the organization within each paragraph is simple and/or lacking. If you told me a computer wrote it, I would believe you, but I'd probably also believe you if you told me a random undergrad Biology student wrote it, too.

does it provide sources for the information given also?

from here: "Galactica models are trained on a large corpus comprising more than 360 millions in-context citations and over 50 millions of unique references normalized across a diverse set of sources. This enables Galactica to suggest citations and help discover related papers."

Always remember that the outputs of a language model are however, very prone to hallucination. I would not trust its outputs.
