BREAKING: OpenAI GPT store is launching next week.

OpenAI is set to launch its anticipated GPT Store next week, allowing users to effortlessly create, share, explore, and of course monetize personalized GPT creations (that’s the best part). Originally scheduled for November, the store faced delays amid leadership drama changes at OpenAI .

The platform hints at a revenue-sharing model based on community usage, providing creators with an opportunity to earn from their custom GPTs. A leaderboard will showcase top GPTs, while OpenAI plans to highlight the most useful and delightful creations across categories. Users can maintain privacy by keeping their GPTs private, and chats are not shared with the GPT builder. (Read More)

Kini Big Deal? (Why does it matter?)

Think of it like the App Store, but just for very specialized Chatbots who will do more than just chat like ChatGPT. This introduces a fresh distribution platform that empowers creators, fosters AI innovation and encourage broader participation in OpenAI’s ecosystem.

However, only subscribed users can create GPTs and access those created within this innovative platform. 😥

ChatGPT Prompt Collaborator

I want you to become my Prompt engineer. Your goal is to help me create the best possible prompt for my needs. The prompt will be used by you, ChatGPT. You will follow the following process:

Your first response will be to ask me what the prompt should be about. I will provide my answer, but we will need to improve it through continual iterations by going through the next steps.

Based on my input, you will generate 2 sections: a) Revised Prompt (provide your rewritten prompt. It should be clear, concise, and easily understood by me), b) Questions (ask relevant questions pertaining to what additional information is needed from me to improve the prompt).

We will continue this iterative process with me providing additional information to you and you updating the prompt in the Revised Prompt section until I say we are done.

PS: Remember to say “we are done“ when you are satisfied, or else, it will continue generating questions to refine the prompt.

The New York Times Vs OpenAI and Microsoft

The New York Times has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, alleging copyright infringement. The claim asserts that millions of articles from The Times were used to train AI chatbots like ChatGPT, posing competition to traditional news sources.

While the lawsuit seeks unspecified damages, it demands “billions of dollars” for the alleged “unlawful copying and use” of The Times’s content.

The legal action reflects broader concerns in the creative industry regarding copyright issues in the AI training landscape. The lawsuit underlines the potential impact of AI on traditional journalism and raises questions about the protection of data in the evolving landscape of generative AI models.

Kini Big Deal? (Why does it matter?)

Everyone is waiting to see how this will be settled as a major precedence will be set (if a big gun such as The New York Times can fire at OpenAI and hit, then that’s a big hit!).

As AI continues to advance, such legal battles will shape the boundaries between innovation and protecting creative works, ultimately influencing how information is generated and shared in the digital era.

AI cannot be named as patent ‘inventor’, UK supreme court

The UK’s highest court has decided that artificial intelligence cannot be legally recognized as an inventor to obtain patent rights. This verdict was reached in the case of US scientist Dr. Stephen Thaler, who had a conflict with the Intellectual Property Office (IPO) over his attempt to name an AI, called DABUS, as the inventor for two patents. Thaler argued that DABUS independently invented a container for food or drink and a light signal, and he should have rights over its inventions. However, the IPO denied this, saying that an inventor must be a human under current law.

The lower courts had already confirmed this decision in 2020 and 2021. The Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision, concurred with the IPO, saying that DABUS is not a human and did not create any invention. Therefore, it could not be an inventor according to the Patents Act 1977. The court also rejected Thaler’s claim that he should get the patents as the AI’s owner, pointing out that DABUS is a device with no legal identity and Thaler has no separate right to a patent for any of its technical innovations. This case was closely monitored due to the growing attention to AI developments and their effects in various sectors.

Kini Big Deal? (Why does it matter?)

This means that only human beings can be credited with creating new inventions and applying for patents under the current law. This ruling has important implications for the future of AI and innovation, as it raises questions about how AI-generated inventions are treated under patent law. Let’s see how it goes!

In the years to come, humans will need to oversee AI systems that are far more intelligent than they are. OpenAI

In the near future, humans will grapple with overseeing AI systems surpassing their intelligence, as highlighted in OpenAI’s latest research on superhuman AI alignment. The concept of “superalignment” introduces a novel analogy, employing less advanced models to supervise more sophisticated ones. The research demonstrates that a GPT-2-level model effectively guides GPT-4, showcasing capabilities close to GPT-3.5.

This innovative approach addresses challenges posed by current alignment methods and offers a promising pathway for ensuring the safety and benefit of future superhuman AI models. OpenAI is also encouraging further exploration in this realm with open-source code and a $10 million grants program. Read more.

Kini Big Deal? (Why does it matter?)

OpenAI’s working to make sure iRobot does not happen, hence the “superalignment,” they are making sure super-smart AI stays friendly. Think of it as AI babysitters to keep things safe and awesome for us. They’re even throwing $10 million for more brainy research.

Did you notice your recent responses from ChatGPT?

Recent user reports and observations suggest that ChatGPT-4, OpenAI’s latest language model, may be exhibiting signs of laziness. Users have noted instances where the model provides simplified responses or avoids completing certain tasks. While OpenAI acknowledges the issue, the root cause remains unclear.

This trend emerged in late November, with users reporting instances of ChatGPT-4 hesitating to fulfil prompts. For example, requests to generate an HTML list resulted in responses like, “Due to the length of the list, I’ve created an HTML template for you to complete.”

A speculative theory, known as the “winter break hypothesis,” suggests that ChatGPT-4 might mirror human seasonal behaviour, slowing down in December. This theory, influenced by the model’s responsiveness to human-like encouragement, lacks conclusive evidence and is challenging to replicate consistently.

Developer Rob Lynch’s experiment added an interesting dimension to the discussion. Lynch observed shorter outputs from ChatGPT-4 when provided with a December date compared to a May date, hinting at a potential date-related influence on the AI’s behaviour. However, other researchers struggled to replicate these findings with statistical significance, highlighting the unpredictability in large language models’ behaviours.

As the tech community delves into various tests and investigations, conclusions about ChatGPT-4’s work ethic are pending. This situation offers a unique perspective on the intricate dynamics between AI and its training data, emphasizing the ongoing challenges in comprehending and predicting AI behaviours. Continued research and analysis remain crucial in unravelling the complexities of AI systems.

Kini Big Deal? (Why does it matter?)

AI too needs to chill sometimes, afterall, it was trained on human data.

So, what’s the deal for you? Well, if you’ve felt like ChatGPT-4 is on a December vacation, you’re not alone. Some think it’s mimicking human holiday slowdowns. Imagine your AI assistant taking a break!

But hey, it’s a reminder that these AI things are complex. We are still trying to understand this thing. As tech geeks dig deeper, it’s like peeling back the layers of the AI onion. 🧅
