I have a feeling a lot of "success" of OpenAI in the enterprise space is simply nepotism or in-network tech mafia buddies migrating from diversity hires to ChatGPT subscriptions.

Data coming from from this discussion thread and my team's experience at work paint a different picture.

ChatGPT simply is a much better product all around. Period.

I've been using it to automate some very basic html/js stuff and it's always forgetting context and stomping on old stuff that's not related to the prompt. I guess this is just leaky abstraction of its in context memory compression. It's manageable but all it's doing for me is allowing me to be lazier. It certainly isn't making me any more productive.

If I try to get it to do stuff outside my domain expertise it's making errors I can't catch. So I suppose if move fast and break things works for your business, then that's fine.

But that begs the question, a much better product than what?

Either way, we saw them fire a bunch of people and "replace them with AI," so it's not out of the question this is a more toward "AI tech leadership" tax subsidization as DEI is phased out.
