And a big moat is going to be safety... and specifically configuration of safety.
Wouldn't be surprised at all if the major API-based vendors start leaning in on making their safety config proprietary.
If a business has already sunk XXXX hours into ensuring a model meets their safety criteria for public-facing use, they'd rather upgrade to a newer model from the same vendor that guarantees portability of that, versus having to reinvest and recertify.
Ergo, the AI PaaS that dominate at the beginning will likely continue to dominate.
I find that Claude is more conversational (better fine tuning), but not as smart as even ChatGPT.
Prompt:
The original titles and release years in the Harry Potter series are:
Philosopher's Stone (1997)
Chamber of Secrets (1998)
Prisoner of Azkaban (1999)
Goblet of Fire (2000)
Order of the Phoenix (2003)
Half-Blood Prince (2005)
Deathly Hallows (2007)
Given this, generate a new Harry Potter title, using only the words found in the existing titles. Avoid orderings in the original titles. You may add or remove plurals and possessives.
ChatGPT is more comparable to what Quora/Poe calls Claude+ - slower/more expensive/smarter. Claude-instant is closer to GPT-turbo in that tradeoff space.
FWIW, I do find that Claude (Anthropic's GPT) is often better than GPT4 -- and very fast. Entrants can compete on price, safety, quality, etc.
