I see people asking: How else will we critically study GPT-4 etc then?
Don't. Opt out. Study something else.
GPT-4 should be assumed to be toxic trash until and unless #OpenAI is *open* about its training data, model architecture, etc.
I rather suspect that if we ever get that info, we will see that it is toxic trash. But in the meantime, without the info, we should just assume that it is.
To do otherwise is to be credulous, to serve corporate interests, and to set terrible precedent.
