OpenAI upgrades GPT-3, stunning with rhyming poetry and lyrics

The new model in the GPT3 family of large language models, text-davinci-003, is said to improve on its predecessors by handling more complex instructions. People discovered that it could generate rhyming songs, limericks, and poetry at a level GPT-3 could not previously do.

On Hacker News, commenters expressed amazement after convincing GPT-3 to write a poem. "Mass doth affect the shape of time" was asked to be re-written by GPT3 by another person.

Prompt: "Write a short rhyming poem explaining Einstein's theory of general relativity in easy but accurate terms"

If you want to understand Einstein's thought It's not that hard if you give it a shot General Relativity is the name of the game Where space and time cannot remain the same Mass affects the curvature of space Which affects the flow of time's race An object's motion will be affected By the distortion that is detected The closer you are to a large mass The slower time will seem to pass The farther away you may be

Time will speed up for you to see

Anyone with an Openai account can experiment with GPT-3 through a special website that requires no coding skills.

Visitors can type in instructions such as " write a poem about Ars Technica" or " write rhyming instructions about how to brew tea in the form of a poem" and GPT will generate results just below the prompt.

GPT 3 gained renown for its ability to compose text in various styles at a similar level to a human, thanks to extensive training on text scrapers from the internet and data pulled from books. The next best word in the sequence is predicted using statistical associations between learned word positions.

It's not a new hobby to generate poetry with a machine. Inventions have been creating ways to write verse through automation for a long time. The latest update of GPT3 feels like a step forward in complexity that comes from integrating knowledge about a wide variety of subjects and styles into one model that writes coherent text.

I posted about how image-generating AI has gotten exponentially better in the last month.Well, a new text model was released for GPT-3 today.AI can now write rhyming poems.And acrostics.And limericks.

Some have examined in detail the flaws of GPT 3. It can still generate false information, limiting its applications, even though its factual accuracy has increased over time. GPT 3's short-term memory is limited to what you've just fed it. GPT 3 hits the mark when it comes to purely creative fictional output.

The text-davinci-003 upgrade is a notable public upgrade according to industry sources. Openai has not officially announced an upcoming release, but there are rumors of a successor called GPT-4.
