We saw a post the other day about using DALL-E and GPT-3 in conjunction with one another. I think more of these systems working together is going to revolutionize basically everything, especially when democratized with cheaper consumer hardware.

Did DALL-E and GPT-3 revolutionize anything yet? (I know it might sound snarky but it's not my intention, I genuinely wonder how they're used today, other than demos)

Revolutionize? No. I don't mean DALL-E or GPT-3 specifically, just that tech. I think as the hardware needed to run these gets cheaper and the tech is applied to other domains we will see revolutionary changes. My vision depends heavily on the forward march of progress with bigger better compute available cheaper.

If nothing else DALL-E showed that automation will takeover artists jobs too.

GPT-3 can generate quite sensible paragraphs but is far away from generating pages of internally consistent content. On there other hand it works OK as semantic aware knowledge base: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32348768
