Well, outperform is probably an understatement. It's more like GPT-4 vs. GPT-2 level of difference. It's really quite marvellous to see how accurate/helpful/habit-changing it can be applying the model to do image search, find similar photos, finding people/pet, deduplications, adding captions, etc, etc.
Now we are a small seed-stage B2C company working on an iOS app. So B2B sales just isn't what we set out to do. We've spent a good portion of our runway on the training, so it'll be nice if we can get some revenue back from selling/licensing the model.
Do you have a recommendation for a marketplace we should look at? Ideally we just upload our model and define the interface, the platform will provide traffic/eyeballs, trial rate-limit, usage metering, billing.
BTW, HN Search on "AI Model Marketplace" turns up a graveyard of empty promises, busted startups and disappointed investors, which I take as a sigh that maybe there just ain't a market out there, which is equally good to know.
Thanks!
What happened with GPT-4 shocked me so deeply that, yesterday morning, I caught myself forgetting to give way at a busy intersection. (I've never received any tickets in my life)
This afternoon, I finally had some alone time. So I went into the garden and work on my feelings.
Here is a list of the emotions that are swelling up in me, (using the Junto Emotional Chart)
Awe-struck (for obvious reasons) Astounded
Triumphant (the sci-fi vision has finally come true in our lifetime)
Perplexed (wow, how comes it's coming at us so fast!)
Anxious (of the cascading effect on society, geopolitics and our business).
There are plenty of texts written about either the looming doom or the ultimate freedom of human capital. I am not interested in any of those abstract discussions.
What I do want to hear are
1. How are YOU feeling? 2. Any particular changes you've made to your product or startup? 3. How about your life? 4. If you have any child/children, your family or how you educate them?
Thanks!
