I just bought a month's subscription last night in order to write some articles, but it didn't help too much because the articles are really fact-based, so I still have to do the research and put everything into my own words. Astoundingly, it's able to generate facts that sound completely legit but are actually 100% false, which is kind of scary because someone might use something like this to pump out false facts into the world, not out of malice but just ignorance/carelessness.
However, it's really cool to just play around with it, and I can definitely see it being useful in other circumstances. I don't think it'd be that helpful in situations where personal voice/style and imagination are more important and the writer has to draw on personal experiences and emotions or do a lot of contemplation, reflection, and thinking. I'm interested to see whether OpenAI's GPT-3 by itself could be trained so I could get it to write in something that sounds like what I'd actually think and feel—like importing my brain into a machine.
