According to Wikipedia, OpenAI did create GPT[0] and the GPT-3 model[1], which this tool depends on, is exclusively available through the OpenAI API. It's true that some open alternatives to GPT-3 have been popping up but I believe they are still behind in terms of quality.

Thank you for adding a correction. I shouldn’t have been so flippant: OpenAI did not invent transformers, GPT-3 is an iteration of the BERT architecture, which is an encoder, whereas GPT is a decoder model.

Regardless, a GPT model is not a proprietary technology you must get from OpenAI. You’re right that this tool uses OpenAI’s API, but this isn’t necessarily implied by the use of GPT.

BTW you answer structure is very similar to ChatGPT’s when you point it to a mistake.

Well to be fair GPT-3 was trained on internet comments!

@l33t233372 you are absolutely spot on.
