Tech experts are starting to doubt that ChatGPT and A.I. ‘hallucinations’ will ever go away: ‘This isn’t fixable’::Experts are starting to doubt it, and even OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is a bit stumped.

It is possible to get coherent output from them though. I’ve been using the ChatGPT API to successfully write ~20 page proposals. Basically give it a prior proposal, the new scope of work, and a paragraph with other info it should incorporate. It then goes through a section at a time.

The numbers and graphics need to be put in after… but the result is better than I’d get from my interns.

I’ve also been using it (google Bard mostly actually) to successfully solve coding problems.

I either need to increase the credit I giver LLM or admit that interns are mostly just LLMs.

Are you using your own application to utilize the API or something already out there? Just curious about your process for uploading and getting the output. I've used it for similar documents, but I've been using the website interface which is clunky.

Just hacked together python scripts.

Pip install openapi-core

Just FYI, I dinked around with the available plugins, and you can do something similar. But, even easier is just to enable "code interpreter" in the beta options. Then you can upload and have it scan documents and return similar results to what we are talking about here.

I recently asked it a very specific domain architecture question about whether a certain application would fit the need of a certain business application and the answer was very good and showed both a good understanding of architecture, my domain and the application.
