Reddit discussion: Anyone else witnessing a panic inside NLP orgs of big tech companies?

Summary: A tech worker has claimed that their large organization's year-long initiatives to "productionalize 'state of the art NLP models'" are now obsolete in the face of GPT-4, and that some members of the science team are in denial. The worker questions the long-term effect on science careers disrupted by such changes and comments on the ego of some scientists.
