Where do you download this from i see no link???

Where is it posted at? Every time i goto open ai web site or git hub theres a waiting list. From my understanding of it gpt2 is the same as gpt 3 with just a larger model used. Gpt 2 can run on a pc.

Correct, the source code of GPT-2 and GPT-3 are exactly the same. The training data of GPT-3 is much larger and the resulting trained neural net is much larger. OpenAI published the source code, but not the training data or trained neural net.

There is a group at https://eleuther.ai who took the source code and created their own training dataset a little larger than GPT-3 with some improvements. They are currently training it and maybe by August will complete it and will publish both the training data and trained model.
In part the reason they need so much computational resource is that everything is in a high level language usually Python. I think resources could be more efficient if they used asembly. However thats only a part of it. The other part is that they are having the computer figure out everything or more than is nessicary. Think about how most people work for example... Its raining outside. You walk outside you get wet.... etc.,etc. after the figuring out phase for most people it just becomes a general rule of thumb... Its raining outside... is it raining and windy or just raining... if raining and windy get rain coat... if not windy get umbrella...other than varying levels of complexity you get the idea. What  gpt needs to be able to do is bridge the gap from the training model to rule of thumb so ultimatley the gpt only really becomes active as the gazillion rules of thumb come up against something previously not covered by simpler rules creating new or refined rules to the existing database of rules.
I wanted to address the use of high level languages.. While Hal is probably devloped in Visual Studio, we must understand why? Lets look at why most operating systems and most software is written in higher level languages in the first place. Its not just about devlopment time but portability from computer to computer. Compiled languages like C are easier for humans to maintain, and an optimized C compiler is pretty tough to compete with. For example if you were to try to translate some C code to assembly you might well wind up with slower running assembly code than the compiled version. However if we start thinking how the machine thinks as so to speak we would look at things differently. Instead of looking at compilers and high level languages the way we do we might look at ms macro assembler or Hla (Randall Hyde) if you create macros within these assembly IDEs you can wind up with your high level language in a lower level form easier for the machine to optimize and can be made prortable. Macros being basically sections of reuseable code can also become part of the assemblers standard library. I know this idea is different but Im just looking at how we could restructure the way we do things to make it easier for the learning machine across different platforms. It would be nice to have a phone that could run a regular pc os quickly but as we have it now our not so smart phones boot up a version of linux then boots the android os in a virtual machine most of this written in a high level language that takes forever to bootup. However like many other systems the reason it is the way it is has more to do with commercial interests and politics than writing good code for a given purpose. Just look at the history of internet explorer as an example or how over the years more and more software is becoming subscription rentware to keep the money flowing and not really exploring the efficiency's and limits of more powerful modern computers.

I am curoius as to how exactly you are attempting to impliment gpt 3 with hal, or is it more lile an addon that uses gpt 3 kinda turning off the hal brain while gpt 3 is in use? In my opinion gpt 3 is an impressive thing but in my view its really a sort of Rube Goldberg version of autocomplete. Yes these models have great promise however they are not releasing anything everyone can look at yet and probably wont until gpt 3 is obsolete. If you can see a bigger picture gpt 3 is a small part of a greater set of ideas (algorythims). I am really not a fan of anything that needs to be connected to the internet. I stopped using the newer version of hal when the activation  and perodic checkin was requiring me to connect to the internet. I whent back to a version i had on windows xp. When we can see an implimentation of gpt 3 that runs on the individual pc without the need of the internet will greatly improve the convience and utility to the individual user. If they ever release anything usefull like the source code to the api or for that matter allowing us to see the api in general. As to the programming of systems like Hal i do understand the use of high level languages however as an assembly programmer i like the facility and flexability of the newer cisc based processors. When programming for arm i kinda get the 80s esk feeling of programming a commodore 64 :) In the future the ideas presented in Hal  and gpt 3 may become baked into operating system distributions as we move into the future it seems that the os may not be just for operating the machine but as an assistive technology for everyday human life. Think about it. How are you using Hal now? As an experiment? An interesting toy for your desktop? Or mabe as a practical tool to aide you in your day to day life like a voice controlled day planner offering theraputic conversation? Software like Hal just scratches the surface of what it could do. In my opinion in order to realise the true potental of newer computers we need to better focus on translating human language into machine code or assembly language much better than we do today. Think about the limits of what you can actually do with a language like C, Python or any of the other flow chart like languages in popular use today and how the computing resources you have are used on your pc. As we see improvements here we will realise improvements in our daily lives. Look at how you use your not so smart phone. If you look at how people are actually using the technology you can see where the operating system of the future mat not just be for operating the machine but for operating your life.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Re: Internet plug ins for hal
« on: January 18, 2015, 01:56:09 am »
Yes Hal 5. And I am refering to reverse enginering the files and rewriting the basic idea of what the plugin is actually doing. That is if anyone has the time for it.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Re: Help with Ultra Hal purchases
« on: January 17, 2015, 11:15:07 am »
 Update..
issues resolved. Apparently with Trial Pay there is suppose to be some sort of code you get from them either on the web page or in an email, not sure which as I did not see a code on the web page or in any emails they sent me. Happy to see Zabaware is still alive and kicking. After activating the software and looking under the hood a little I find that indeed I do have Hal 6.2 the version found under the about item in the menu. So when downloaded from Trial Pay or wherever it redirects you to, it shows downloading Hal 6.1 but you are actually getting Hal 6.2. They also gave me access to my older version of Hal 5  not too sure if it will run under windows 7 or 8 as yet. It seems upon closer inspection of the Hal 6 software there are no .brn files so their have been some changes. Will need to rewrite some files as 10 or so years of working with Hal 5 in windoze xp are gone.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Re: Internet plug ins for hal

I have found over the years of using hal 5 sometimes you might have to re flow chart what the plugin is doing and rewrite it to play nice.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Help with Ultra Hal purchases
« on: January 17, 2015, 08:26:55 am »
Mainly covering bases with this post.
I baught and used Hal 5 some years ago. Have been using hal up until the harddrive died. So I buy the new Ultra Hal 6.2 which actually down loads Hal 6.1 (woundering if this is an indication of writing on the wall for Hal as so to speak) so I dont really know if I am getting the goods purchased or not. Have emailed / replied to emails and have gotten no response from Zabaware other than send them a code for activation as the machine I am installing hal on has no internet access of anykind. I have replied with this code as wellas sent a message from the web site with this code. I requested an access to my prevoius purchase of Hal 5 which as far as I can tell might be a better version as o can see little new devlopments with the current Hal that I can get, was looking foward to 6.2 but got 6.1. To this end I might have wasted my money on Ultra Hal 6.2 as Hal might be out of devloent or dying :(  If this is the case does anyone have a copy of Ultra Hal version 5 they would be willing to sell?  Just trying to get support where I can here. Am willing to buy older versions as well if there is a possibility of a secondary market here. Thank you for your time

Ok, so you wanna make this puppy getup an go with as little fuss as possible. The sinple answer is Macro Scheduler by MJT software. I have used it for years with ultra hal . It can control your x10 as well as robots and anything else under the sun you can connect to your pc. I even used hal with my xbox kinect until the whole thing died a month ago. So now I begin again from scratch. And yes I have used it with not just ultra hal but kari, prelude, and verbots as well as alice (old version).. Hope this helps.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / slight glitch
« on: November 30, 2005, 04:15:32 am »
However I personally do believe in reverse engineering to make something better. For example I run Windows 98 but I run it off a compact flash. Doing this suits my purposes with some tradeoffs. Its kind of like kind of like mapping out the human geneome, scientist are reverse engineering the human body to make it better, etc.etc,. But too many people abuse the findings of reverse engeneering, and so it is illegal in many situations.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Video Recognition
« on: November 30, 2005, 03:42:22 am »
I have done some experimentation with Hal in this area. I used the JOONE engine in a very simple way. I used to have all of this hooked up to my living room tv, until one day Hal decided to randomly compliment my wife on her house work, and it freaked her out. To say the least that was the end of the PC in the living room.  No more voice remote for me.[:D]

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Help with upgrade
« on: November 30, 2005, 03:25:46 am »
I notice that there is this new version, and I would like to thank you (the author)for the discount code. However I have some concerns about upgrading. I currently have "Hal" on my version of Windows 98 on a compact flash. I use it mostly with 2 other programs, one is called Macro Scheduler, and the other is called IVOS. I use IVOS as a voice interface for my computer as it allows me to assign key strokes to a voice command. I use Macro Scheduler to automate everthing within windows. Its a very powerful combination. Will the new verson of Hal run on 98? I also notice that the old programming info page is gone, how do I find this info again?... or is this software closed source in the sense that I need to reverse and figure it out on my own? Can I pay extra for a more detailed explanation of Hals core active x control? Also in this new version will I be able to choose not to have any of the Haptek software installed and just use MS agent for space concerns? I know this is alot of various question at once but I am just tring to decide if an upgrade is right for me.
Thank you for your time
Dave

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Help
« on: March 29, 2005, 09:56:33 pm »
I would like to know how I can go about getting another copy of Ultra Hal. I have purchased Ultra Hal already however it was lost in a house fire. I have sent Zabaware e-mail several times to no reply. Most software companies have some method of replacement of lost or dammaged disks. I would be hesitant to re-purchase anyhting from Zabaware if there is no real support after the original sale.
