OpenAIs moat will soon largely be UX. Anyone can do plugins, code etc but when operating by everyday users the best UX wins after LLM becomes commodified. Just look at stand alone digital cameras vs mobile phone cams from Apple.

GPT4 is still leagues ahead of the competition. Open source LLMs will be used more widely, but for the most demanding tasks, there is no alternative for GPT4.

Anecdata confirmation: I've been toying around with LLMs for simple fun stuff, but when it comes to real work, GPT-4 delivers in spades.

I have cut many hours of debugging thanks to it. I could find issues easily, on-call in short conversation, when previously that was reserved as post mortem task.

Even reading documentation is nothing like before: once, I was looking for a single command to upload and presign a object in S3. SDK has tens of methods, which require careful scanning, if they do what I want. Going through documentation thoroughly would've taken me hours. GPT-4 simply found, no, there's no operation for that immediately.
