GPT-3 can be seen as only a glorified Markov chain fed with the thoughts of millions of persons evolved through the human generations but... 1- maybe in some ways we as individuals also are one, and 2- it seems to provide something like a telescope/microscope to observe the human culture / collective "unconscious". I think it says more about us than about his algorithm. Is fascinating.

In one of comments down of the video you can read.

"Stephan hawking once said that the universe was created by a mistake."

P.s. GPT-3 is form of automated plagiarism, nothing more.

Computers aren't setting us free.
