You're missing the point then. ChatGPT is a toy. Its a preview.

ChatGPT is far from perfect but it is the first publicly available software system capable of genuine unscripted reasoning. That's the magic barrier that many seemed to think was decades away.

Now its a race to scale.

Why does it matter that it's the first public toy? Lambda existed years ago. That's what matters. ChatGPT is a worse version of Lambda without features (apart from BingGPT that bullies you haha).

The race started years ago.

Because its what brought AI into the public discourse in a big way. Look at how it is forcing Google's hand. It will be remembered as the shot of the starting pistol regardless of what occurred behind closed doors.

You believe too much in what you'd like to be truth.

The starting pistol was Lambda. chatGPT is a marketing fart.
