Comment on Ask HN: How fast could Google/Baidu create and deploy their ChatGPT equivalent?

Strictly speaking, I can deploy a ChatGPT equivalent this weekend with GPT-neo-2.7b. It would be expensive and slightly dumber than ChatGPT, but I could deploy it all the same.

I get the feeling the same applies for Google et. al. They can deploy a chatbot whenever they want, but engineering the product of a chatbot takes time. You need bonus features, syntax highlighting, systems integration and, of course, a prompt and accompanying filter.

Personally, I see OpenAI as extremely vulnerable. If you're still feeling impressed by their technology, you should reassess the barriers-to-entry for their competition, and who exactly those competitors become...

Indeed, OpenAI has had issues with uptime. Many of my code samples have the wrong language displayed despite being the correct code

The lack of any real-time information will hurt them in the long run. I doubt they have the setup and infra to do that. Maybe this is where Microsoft comes in, but we know how these software mixers tend to go
