It's already possible to get some of this effect with codex. The trick is to keep appending the interaction in the prompt (to maintain a memory of sorts).
For examples, you can replicate all the prompts here: https://twitter.com/yoavgo/status/1599200756631887872 with prompt + memory.
The notebook at https://github.com/madaan/memprompt/blob/main/YoavsPythonPro... shows a demo of this.
Some of these ideas were earlier discussed in our work on memory-assisted prompting [1].
After going through some of the chatter on Twitter, I think the UI plays a critical role in creating the wow effect. We have had models like codex that can do this with assistance from memory for some time now (quick example on https://www.memprompt.com/), but the chat gpt interface made it so much more easier to use and see the nicely formatted results. Huge lesson IMO for folks working on AI + product.
Of course, the whole family of models from OpenAI is amazing, just that one of the key takeaways here is the importance of making models accessible and fun.
