🗣️ OpenAI Introduces GPT-3

OpenAI introduces GPT-3, a state-of-the-art autoregressive language model that uses Deep learning to produce a variety of computer codes, poetry and other language tasks exceptionally similar, and almost indistinguishable from those written by humans. Its capacity was ten times greater than that of the T-NLG. It was introduced in May 2020, and was in beta testing in June 2020.
