Siddharth thought he was there to pitch OpenAI on Turing’s specialty: finding high-quality software engineers to work as contractors. Instead, he found himself in a room full of AI researchers who wanted something entirely different: data. OpenAI had found that adding bits of computer code into the datasets used to train its large language model, then GPT-3, helped increase the model’s reasoning ability. That’s why its AI researchers wanted as much computer code as they could get, and they wanted it to be good. They asked Siddharth if he could raise an army of computer coders who would complete specific software […]
