That's quite a confusing comment. `davinci-003` is from OpenAI, whereas ChatGPT is some sort of variants more "optimized" for chatting. Said differently, GPT3 or 3.5 is a customized version of `davinci-003`, made for chatting. Please don't ask me on the details, I don't know, but `davinci-003` is not an alternative to ChatGPT

It is an alternative. It’s just more expensive.

Why makes you believe that? In my testing davinci does better than gpt-3.5-turbo for most tasks.

I think people, and this article, is about suggesting alternatives (competitors) to ChatGPT. `davinci` is obviously not an alternative, ChatGPT is `davinci` made for chatting. As to whether davinci produces better responses than ChatGPT ... maybe? but that's a different question
