742: Happy Holidays from All of Us — with Jon Krohn @JonKrohnLearns

GPT Evolution

The transition from GPT-3.5 to GPT-4 marks a significant leap in AI capabilities. Jon Krohn reflects on how last year's holiday message, crafted using GPT-3.5, seemed revolutionary at the time. However, the release of GPT-4 has vastly outshone its predecessor, making the generative AI of just a year ago appear primitive by today's standards.

A few months later, GPT-3 point fives capabilities were vastly outshone by the release of GPT four, and today countless proprietary and open source large language models have made the generative AI of twelve months ago look in AI terms, seem like its from the Stone Age.

This rapid evolution highlights the pace at which AI technology is advancing, reshaping our expectations and applications of these tools 1.

   

AI Trends

Generative AI trends have shifted dramatically over the past year. Jon Krohn notes that while generative AI was once at the forefront of innovation, it has now become less fashionable. This change is partly due to the rapid advancements in AI technology, which have outpaced previous models and shifted public perception.

It has also become the case that obviously using generative AI has become dreadfully out of vogue.

As a result, the Super Data Science Podcast team has opted for a more personal touch in their holiday message, emphasizing human connection over technological novelty 1.
