I'm hyped not because I think it's an agi.
I'm hyped because I threw normal text (sentences) against it and it always did what I wanted and it didn't matter if it was bad English or bad German.
I didn't even try promt hacking or promt tuning because natural language already worked so good.
It's a tremendous good 'normal human' text interface.
All of my analysis is based on my usage of ChatGPT and my understanding of the underlying model. The hype is largely driven by people who don't understand how it actually works and think they're interacting with an artificial general intelligence.
It's a very impressive language model with a lot of applications, but with many fewer applications than the hype would suggest.
