If you got an invite for GPT-3, give it a shot. I discounted it at first, but then I gave it a few shots and was actually crept out a bit. Even though it is "randomly" making things up as it goes, it does show what seems like intelligence just from the sheer amount of data it is trained on.

One thing I was amazed by: GPT-3 could be a great autocompletion engine for any programming language or configuration schema. Things like Grub configuration file, xkb file could be intuitively completed by GTP-3. And even more: GTP-3 could build basic "concepts" and apply them to that domain knowledge. This seems to emerge naturally rather than something pre-planned by OpenAI. After all, I don't think OpenAI has planned for GPT-3 to understand xkb keyboard layouts.
