Any Concerns with Building on ChatGPT?

by sn0w_crash on 1/13/23, 4:14 PM with 4 comments

Have any developers raised concerns on building applications on top of GPT-3 or future releases?

Is there anything in the OpenAI license that gives you pause?

I’m trying to better understand why some people might not want to build on top of ChatGPT, and the business or engineering concerns behind that.

Thanks

    OpenAI's terms say they can ban you for any reason whatsoever as long as they give you 30 days' notice. If you did build something on top of ChatGPT and they later banned you, you'd have no product and no recourse.
