Really? I have been doing research on language models in medical diagnostics even before GPT-2, and found that when trained and applied in certain ways, language models (even much smaller than GPT-3!) are very good at diagnosis predictions, they can compete with much more complex symptom checkers at that.

Proof: Link to my paper (written back in 2019) and a bit less technical article. http://www.dialog-21.ru/media/4632/tarasovdplusetal-069.pdf https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/language-models-multi-purpose...

I applied for GPT-3 access on the next day since the application form was available, described my research and experience in detail, but there was no reply.

Now, they gave access to these people at nabla, and they just asked a bunch of stupid questions using top-k random sampling to generate answers and claimed that this debunks something. This study debunks nothing and proves nothing, it is stupid and only done to get some hype from GPT-3 popularity.

Ok, I am sorry for being rude, but I am really upset because I spent years working on this problem using whatever computational resources I could get and obtained some interesting results, and based on these I think that GPT-3 should be capable to do amazing things for diagnostics when used properly. Why won't OpenAI give access to a researcher who wants to do some serious but a bit mundane work, but gives it to people who use it to create hype?
