ChatGPT 3 : iPhone 1

A bunch of models later, we're about on the iPhone 4-5 now. Feels about right.

It's more like GPT-3 is the Manchester Baby, and we're somewhere around IBM 700 series right now. Still a long way to go to iPhone, as much as the industry likes to pretend otherwise.

  • Both were big consumer commercial breakouts and far better than predecessors. And several years later both see only iterative improvements.

    Neither apply to your analogy.
