Could this headline possibly have any more weasel word qualifiers? Lots of things “could” happen.

Modern media is full of it so they can’t be sued for anything. And also because there’s probably little fact in at least a few parts of the article so they’re posting it as “speculative”

Also, “start over” is a bit dramatic. I think you mean hit up-enter to rerun the training.

"Hit up-enter" is such a hilarious way of describing the unbelievably vast cost of retraining GPT-4

unbelievably vast cost

A quick search indicates training ChatGPT-4 cost around $100M - really not that much for a company valued at $29B.
