  • Bob McGrew is at the epicenter of the AI revolution. As the VP of Research at OpenAI, he's instrumental in breakthroughs that are reshaping the world, from building GPT models and launching ChatGPT to overseeing the Dall-E project. How was GPT-4 trained and what will GPT-5 look like? Why does ChatGPT respond with certain biases and how do they correct for that? What breakthrough led Bob to believe AGI could be achievable?
    Bob and I were in Phi Psi together at Stanford and both interned at PayPal in its early days. We hired Bob as the second engineer at Palantir, where he built and shipped the first products for the intelligence community and went on to lead engineering and to help run the company. Bob joined OpenAI part-time in 2016 and full-time in 2017, where he's been at the forefront of AI innovation. In this episode, we discuss the early days of Palantir, how he knew AI's moment had arrived, and the most important research projects underway at OpenAI. We also look ahead to what GPT-8 could unlock for humanity and what's needed for Large Language Models to move beyond mimicking humans to higher forms of intelligence and creativity.

    Fantastic interview. Loved the backstory on ChatGPT and the constraints on AI, power and chips. Also nice how it covered a lot of ground but still felt deep at the right places. Would have loved to hear Bob's thoughts on how we/he itentns to get models not only learn patterns from data but also reason about the underlying causal relationships that govern those patterns which IMO is required for AGI.

    Love Joe's content. This is a massively undersubscribed channel. Gold mine.

    Really interesting. I appreciated Bob’s comments about using GPT as a classroom/assignment/learning tool.

    I am amazed at the discussion of the development and discovery processes, the considerations being taken into account and your general thought processes and how to do each iteration better. Some great minds here...and yes, i wish some of the same Palantir engineers were still there. Must be incredible pressure and burn out in this business. Thanks for keeping a positive focus.

    Would love an interview with your ex-palantir colleague Stephen Cohen .
    He’s done research with Andrew Ng , and is an incredibly bright guy and would love to hear his insight on things

    Sell the chips and make fame and money.
    Inside the chip is my Neural Network.
    It comes from learning German language.
    Four years baby!
