Native JSON Output from GPT-4
i think people are underestimating the potential here for agents building - it is now a lot easier for GPT4 to call other models, or itself. while i was taking notes for our emergency pod yesterday (<a href="https://www.latent.space/p/function-agents" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.latent.space/p/function-agents</a>) we had this interesting debate with Simon Willison on just how many functions will be supplied to this API. Simon thinks it will be "deep" rather than "wide" - eg a few functions that do many things, rather than many functions that do few things. I think i agree.<p>you can now trivially make GPT4 decide whether to call itself again, or to proceed to the next stage. it feels like the first XOR circuit from which we can compose a "transistor", from which we can compose a new kind of CPU.
