Title is a bit dramatic, but yes, Claude 3 claims to be better than GPT 4 in most ways.

Disagree, never liked OpenAI trying to claim a generic term as the name of their product.

Think it depends the language, in french gpt is very very close to “j’ai pété” which means “I farted”. But, yeah agree that Claude ain’t much better name

This is how French people pronounce cloud, so might be where the name comes from

Absolutely not. It’s pronounced \klod. The « OW » diphthong sound doesn’t exist in French.

Cloud is generally pronounced as in English \aʊ\ or maybe \klud\ for non English speakers.

There is no possible confusion in French between this two words.

Trust me… “je les ai téléchargés depuis le Claude” is exactly how most French will pronounce. Not all, but most. First hand experience

More likely a reference to Claude Shannon, the founder of AI.

Yes, it’s named after Claude Shannon, but I’ve never heard him described as “the founder of AI”. He’s the father of information theory, which is only indirectly connected to AI.

From the linked Wikipedia page:

“Theseus”, created in 1950, was a mechanical mouse controlled by an electromechanical relay circuit that enabled it to move around a labyrinth of 25 squares.[71] The maze configuration was flexible and it could be modified arbitrarily by rearranging movable partitions.[71] The mouse was designed to search through the corridors until it found the target. Having travelled through the maze, the mouse could then be placed anywhere it had been before, and because of its prior experience it could go directly to the target. If placed in unfamiliar territory, it was programmed to search until it reached a known location and then it would proceed to the target, adding the new knowledge to its memory and learning new behavior.[71] Shannon’s mouse appears to have been the first artificial learning device of its kind.[71]

Sounds more like claode. Which is fraction away from Claude, and most often than not the the ao sounds au

Is it open source? If not then it’s just as worthless as OpenAI

Hey have you guys heard about ChatGPT 7? It makes chatGPT 6 look like ChatGPT 5!

Who ever thought the AI awakening would this fucking banal?

Don’t worry, it’s not the AI awakening. It’s just people figuring out how to sell text generators.

I just spent some time on Claude 3, and I see how it can be considered ‘better’ than GPT4, however I quickly found that it tends to lie about itself in subtle ways. When I called it out on an error it would say things like ‘I’ll strive to be better’. I called it out on the fact that it’s model doesn’t grow or change based on conversations it has and that it’s impossible for it to strive to do anything outside of, maybe, that chat. It then went on to show me that it couldn’t even adjust within that chat by doing the same thing 5 more times in 5 different ways.

I see the model it used for the apologies (acknowledge, apologize, state intent to do better in the future) which is appropriate for people or beings capable of learning, but it is not. I went from having a good conversation with it about a poem I wrote to being weirdly grossed out by it. GPT does a good job of not pretending to be human, and I appreciate that.

The cynic in me says that’s perfectly human behavior, though

Yea that’s what I’m saying, and I don’t like it. I don’t want my LLM acting human, I want it acting like an LLM. My interactions with Claude 3 were very uncanny valley and bugged me a lot.

so you’re basically saying it talked itself squarely into uncanny valley?

i honestly didn’t consider that would be an issue for LLMs, but in hindsight…yeah, that’s gonna be a problem…
