The really crazy part is that if it were trained on more domain-specific example data then I think it would give pretty great answers to many of the niche questions in those domains. I fully expect that most businesses / industries will have tailored training datasets in the next few years to enable chatbots that assist their employees to do their work. It is at least a partial answer to the high turnover problem that business now face.

I have probed it at varying levels of depth in my domain and found it to answer at least as good as an entry-level engineer. This could easily be improved with extended training data. The problem is that when it begins to get things very wrong (or leave out important details), it would be difficult for an inexperienced user to determine that since ChatGPT responds so confidently to every query.

It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.
