Except that it already is being implemented into business use.

He must disregard any posts that contradicts his highly biased opinion. I have linked many many articles right on this thread, showing its already being used in big business, you’d be naive to think smaller business aren’t using it. Its here. Bury your head in the sand if you want, you’ll be left behind like those guys that didn’t see computers, then the internet take over.
Want to see some amazing AI used for a commercial? Jump to 1:31:00 on this video. This is amazing.
Can you give me examples?
Edit: I should clarify.
When I say business-use, I mean allowing ChatGPT to make actual business decisions as an independent decision-maker without any human input, and not using ChatGPT to merely aid decisions as one might would from Google or a Guide Book.
So for example, a law firm cannot legally allow ChatGPT alone to decide on how a case should be handled.
That’s different than using ChatGPT for guidance, but then making the decision yourself as an attorney.
If that’s what you guys are referring to, then sure, it can be used for business. However, as I mentioned in my initial opinion piece, OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, is not profitable. They are losing money even as they generate revenue. They cannot make profit until they do either 2 things:
- They sell premium versions of ChatGPT as it currently exists today
- They finally reach AGI, which is what ChatGPT has been valued from → speculation that the current model will become revolutionary.
My god dude relax for once
Again, you don’t have an inkling of what AI is for business. So frustrating when you keep posting the same lame inaccurate opinions over and over.

If that’s what you mean, then you should state it like that rather than saying “business-use”. It’s misleading, as you can see. I was responding about business-use in the general sense, as I couldn’t divine from the context you meant something different.
Is there actually a law preventing them from doing so? Sure they may open themselves up for malpractice, but I’m willing to bet there is no law or regulation against using AI for strategy. There’s probably no law or regulation against using a coin flip strategy either. I would venture to guess that few if any of the state bar associations have already put in language to their codes of professional responsibility about it either.
Truly irrelevant, as long as people are willing to invest and they continue to generate revenue. They are the type of business that can go a long way without making a profit, much as we saw with many other companies.

I apologize my posts frustrate you
To avoid a mess, just gonna use bullets

To be a lawyer, you have to have JD as well as pass the BAR of the state you practice in. Are you suggesting that ChatGPT can legally be a lawyer - as an independent decision maker?

The companies listed in that Harvard article all ended up generating profit because they produced a material product that can be scaled. The article isn’t suggesting that companies can indefinitely operate without profit. That’s not possible. Eventually investors pull out.
In ChatGPT’s case, while revenue is increasing, the operational cost is extremely high. AI models are expensive and require lots of energy. As I stated in my post, they will either have to start heavily promoting a premium version, or they will have to reach an AGI, which is what Sam Altman has been selling to investors the entire time. The “potential” is what’s driving speculation.
Eventually, if they do not turn a profit, investors will pull out. Premium versions of any app that was previously free is very hard to sell. If they don’t reach AGI - then I don’t believe OpenAI will ever be profitable.
Repeating - The current version of ChatGPT isn’t what it’s being valued for. It’s being valued for what it will eventually achieve, AGI. Otherwise, they need to sell a premium version with enough subscribers (or sell a crap ton of ads on the free version)
Edit: To counter my own argument unironically, Google’s Gemini has more potential in the long run because they’re incorporating it across their entire ecosystem. The ads on google are integrated in Gemini from a balance sheet perspective.
ChatGPT (or OpenAI) is not formally a search engine as a product. It’s a language model that acts as a search engine, theoretically.
And an AI provided summary of getting there to AGI - 15 - 30 years away.
Fusion anyone ? Fission produced electricity will be to cheap to
meter.
Research into AGI involves various fields like computer science and neuroscience. Approaches include integrating symbolic reasoning with neural networks and designing self-improving AI systems. Some research suggests a 50% chance of achieving AGI between 2040 and 2061.
The future is hard to predict. But agree that to get there it will take AI systems
designing self-improving AI systems. Got to get the carbon out of the equation.
It will be a journey for sure with improvements over time.
But it’s already pretty awesome.
No I’m not suggesting ChatGPT can be a lawyer. However your definition of business use was letting ChatGPT alone decide how a case should be handled. An actual lawyer would still be representing the client, they just would be using ChatGPT for.the strategy in that scenario. A human lawyer name would still go on the documents. It seems like you’re moving your goal posts here, first from “business-use”, to what you said below, to now can ChatGPT be a licensed attorney.
I stick to my original statement that I do not believe that there is any law or regulation that would prevent a lawyer from using ChatGPT alone to decide on how a case should be handled. Also that I expect few, if any, state bar associations have addressed this in their codes of professional responsibility.
That is correct, and I believe ChatGPT will do the same as those other companies.
And it will be, until it’s not. But actually seeing as what humans have out in charge across the board, F it.

Its not something I’m in awe of at this
point in time; but I get your sentiment and can’t deny it’s in the news daily and most people probably are in awe of it. Be interesting to see if the funding can
( and how it will ) be maintained for the next 20-35 years for development. The
very specific task oriented AI models of today will have to become profitable if the current funding paradigm of speculative investing is to continue I’m guessing. Or does it morph into the realm of fusion research, which is funded by governments for last 60+ years ?
What problems has ChatGPT solved today?
For example - many have predicted that ChatGPT will solve climate change, when it’s literally one of the leading causes of it due to the amount of energy it requires coinciding with the level of emissions it outputs.
How can ChatGPT solve fission or quantum computing when it’s training based on data that already exists (from the internet) that’s of human input?
This idea that ChatGPT can solve these types of incredibly complex problems was touted by its developer OpenAI, which is marketed by Sam Altman. But there’s yet to be evidence that will achieve as such.
In my opinion, all these claims are merely tactics to drive up investments. Just as any startup, they have to sell themselves even if it’s hyperextended.
The way ChatGPT is being used today is useful to the average person perhaps, but it’s not what’s going to turn OpenAI a profit (or else it would have already.
They either have to eventually sell a premium version of the current GPT (which could backfire) & sell a ton of ads in the free version, or they have to reach the very concept they sold to investors, AGI.
You keep doing the same thing, confusing a company to represent the whole industry, like you did with EVs, you just automatically assigned Tesla as the only pole bearer. AI isn’t only ChatGPT but seeing as you only touch on surface issues, it’s not surprising, that the only mention of AI from you is the most popular company in newsfeeds.
AI is already here and companies are using them today, everyday. Look at the articles I posted. Yea, its even help discover new ways to fight diseases.

I literally talked about Gemini in my post.
You need to chill out guy. You’re ready to start a war with me as soon as I start typing

Chatgpt/AI is solving business problems daily. Just because it hasn’t solved huge problems like climate change at this point doesn’t mean it’s not solving problems or improving businesses.

No no, if can’t be godlike it’s not AI. Just like saying Tesla self driving isn’t 100% perfect, it won’t replace drivers. Nothing is 100%. Driving, flying, space flight. Nothing. It’s an impossible standard as far as humans are concerned.

It is still early in the game to expect it to be profitable. It does take time for
new technology to take hold and be profitable. Same can be said for Amazon,
EVs, etc.
And slightly off topic, a forbidden topic actually, you just as well forget about
climate change for next 3.5 to possibly 7+ years. US will not drive change and China has a massive industrial society that devours energy.
