Nah, it's not engineering vs science or OS vs closed. It's much simpler:

>FAIR's Galactica. People crucified it because it could generate nonsense. ChatGPT does the same thing.

YLC threw a fit over the whole Galactica debacle. He had lovely aggressive tweets such as "Galactica demo is off line for now. It’s no longer possible to have some fun by casually misusing it. Happy?" or describing people who disliked Galactica as "easily scared of new technology". To see the success of ChatGPT just a few weeks later must have been really painful.

Exactly. He was blaming the users for the Galactica debacle and wondering why OpenAI's ChatGPT is getting adoption when "it spews the same bS" as per his words. And also proceeds to tell that it is just because people had been drstroying Meta's reputation overall.

FB was too scared of the bad PR. OpenAI wasn't. People tried to trash chatGPT millions of times, Galactica just a few times. I think chatGPT handled the adversarial attacks pretty well.

Google is another scared company, their models haven't seen any attacks yet, so they are unknown. I don't care how nice their screenshots look, what I want to see is how people hack it. Then I can form an opinion. People are the true test set.
