LLM discourse, an analogy:
<people look at bitcoin & shitcoin disasters>: wow, maybe I shouldn't use any form of script, specie, currency...barter is the prudent thing to do.
The difference between the worst and models is astronomical. Even ChatGPT3.5 and 4, the gap is huge. If you used, say, AWS Bedrock Titan to form your opinions, you'd think the bots are as bad as the naysayers think.
GPT4 is like 10x smarter than GPT3.5 and GPT3.5 is like 100x smarter than Titan.
