OpenAI makes an all-purpose API for its text-based AI capabilities

摘要： If you’ve ever wanted to try out OpenAI’s vaunted machine learning toolset, it just got a lot easier. The company has released an API that lets developers call its AI tools in on “virtually any English language task.”

Basically, if you’ve got a task that requires understanding words in English, OpenAI wants to help automate it. The various abilities of the GPT-3 family of natural language understanding models are at the disposal of developers, at least if you can get into the private beta. (Request access here.)

What that looks like in action is a little difficult to explain, because it depends on what you want it to do. For instance, you could rely on its ability to look through lots of text at once to answer a question about an article or find a relevant portion. In a short demo video, OpenAI shows how this works — asking “why is bread so fluffy” on the Wikipedia entry for bread returns the portion of the article dedicated to bread’s texture and how it’s created.

That’s a simple one, but the famous AI Dungeon is more complex. The AI was fed a bunch of D&D sourcebooks and adventures and based on that, improvises a journey for the player based on their inputs. While previously this had to be accomplished using clumsy means, essentially running a version of the model locally, the inputs can now simply be submitted via API.
