GPT-3
Text-generating AI
GPT-3 is a large language model released by OpenAI in 2020, capable of generating human-like text from prompts.
The name stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3, the third iteration in the series.
GPT-3 marked a significant leap in AI capability, demonstrating that scaling up neural networks could produce remarkably fluent writing, code, and conversation.
It sparked both excitement and concern about AI's potential: GPT-3 wrote that essay in seconds.
Subsequent versions (GPT-4, etc.) have largely eclipsed it.
