Not at this time. That said, I think thereā€™s some similar apps built with text-davinci-003ā€¦

Hi Paul,

thanks for zour quick reply.
So is chat gpt just some kind of use case for the underlying gpt-3 model or is it based on another model?
Regards
Chris

Hi. As far as Iā€™m understandanding, the answer to your question is that ChatGPT is based on a previous GPT-3 model, I guess text-da-vinci-003.

Many (e.g. @daveshapautomator ) state that ChatGPT is just
1- a fine-tuned model of a previous GPT3 model (I guess the mentioned update of original davinci)
2- where the UX pattern is the question answering (pseudo chatbot) interface with simple web interface
3- temporary for free

BTW, The interesting part, for me is the meaning of ā€˜fine-tuningā€™ (possibly misleading). Donā€™t get me wrong: Ithink ChatGPT is maybe not a fine-tuned model, in the sense of the openAI API fine-tuning feature, but is maybe a special kind of hidden pre-emptive prompt engineering, where a previous GPT3 model is ā€˜programmedā€™ to act with a specific ā€˜bot-pesonaā€™ (be polite, be complete and authoritative, etc.); so that persona is maybe a ā€˜tutor/teacherā€™ā€¦

Back to the original question of this popst: it doesnā€™t exist a ChatGPT API, even if you can workaround with some smart third-party SDks (e.g. in Python); see my post:

But guess what? You donā€™t need ChatGPT APIs, just because ChatGPT is a subversion/instance of a previous GPT3 model, for a specific use case (a playgrod to be used by the masses)ā€¦!

I experimented in facts that you can obtain BETTER results using official "old modelsā€™ APIs, where you tweak macro-parameters (temperature, etc.)

I hope this helps.

Hi,

I personally find ChatGPT much better than the Chat Parameters of Playground with davinci-003.

You said: "I experimented in facts that you can obtain BETTER results using official ā€œold modelsā€™ APIs, where you tweak macro-parameters (temperature, etc.)ā€

How did you play with parameters in order to improve it ? Nothing is better that ChatGPT for me :s
