What I've learned about liquidating domain names
Renewing your domains year after year can create a financial burden when a sale doesn't occur. Instead of just letting your domains drop, there's always the option to liquidate them, by selling them at attractive prices. A domain investor did just that and shares his experience from the process.

Very much agree. GPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer) is a machine learning model (a Transformer architecture) that will probably be replaced at some point. It is incredibly expensive (atm) to train a full GPT like OpenAI. It is an incredibly powerful model compressing huge amounts of human "knowledge" into a semi-navigable space on very expensive hardware but there are others and there will certainly be more. It's also just a part of the overall chat system.

RLHF (reinforcement learning with human feedback) is the process that makes it chatty and useful without going full-fledged prompt engineering for reasonable responses on the original GPT. It tunes the GPT into a new model, via a "policy (gradient)" of sorts created by comparing versions of it's outputs by humans, to seem natural in whatever setting it will be deployed in. That about sums it up. I get excited about this stuff. ;)

That being said, it is a foundational model backed by massive investments so it's lifespan is going to be very, very long. When it does fade into that machine learning model sunset, perhaps I'll be able to sell SadGPT.com for a reasonable amount. ;)
