Guys, please do not downvote this post just because you do not agree who actually solved this problem. The title of the post is correct, unbiased. It says that it’s OpenAI that claim to solve this problem. It doesn’t say that OpenAI has indeed solved this.

I haven’t even noticed how useful it was to me until they disabled it. Glad they came back

Why not? Why Microsoft develops it’s .NET ecosystem? Why Google develops Go/Dart? It costs them lots of money and they give it for free.

The answer is: they don’t earn money on it directly, but these tools are a way to tie programmers to their cloud services. If you use .NET you’ll probably end up on Azure. If Go - probably you’ll use GCP.

So I suspect the same will be with LLMs. At some point they will say: “hey, you can use this LLM however you want, but as you are already using it, then you may want to know our platform is optimized for it”

So are we assuming here that LLMs won’t become more efficient over time? GPT-3 has been a frontier model just a few years ago and it’s performance blew everyone’s mind at that time. I can now run equivalent LLM on my personal computer. Why can’t we expect that after a few years Claude Sonnet level of capability won’t be possible to accomplish locally?

Maybe they meant removed people
