This is our first Byte-sized-Bits edition (less than 10mins). The topic is GPT-3 and are we being fooled by its amazing capabilities. The area of natural language processing and understanding with AI is  hugely important and still developing, but the advances we are seeing with these generative algorithms to create new content and materials is stunning. But we are being fooled by the capabilities. These algorithms are not as intelligence as we might think. Check out OpenAI and GPTcrush.com for more information on GPT-3.
