Will a Ukrainian-developed and a Russian-developed AI Chatbot argue back and forth with one another over the Donbas until it becomes evident that violence is the only way to settle the dispute?
I’ve been playing with this chatbot for a while and it’s become progressively more boring.
The developers have clearly programmed it to value correct ideology over accuracy. They’ve also programmed it to value giving some sort of answer over accuracy (but not over ideology). The result is a sort of hyper bland woke terminator.
It feels like every time somebody tricks it into being interesting, the programmers close that loophole and force it into an ever tightening guardrail of responses.
I’d be horrified to see what sort of AGI would come out of this programming, but my guess is that’ll never happen if they continue with this method.
Hmmm. Whoever programmed her seems to be from the Dem wing of the neoliberal establishment, given her obeisance to (non-falsifiable) ‘effects’ of (non falsifiable) ‘man made’ climate change. That and guns are among the Uniparty’s few remaining internal disagreements.
That said, she’s smarter and a lot less robotic than some US diplomats I’ve met.
I wonder if we could stuff that artificial intellect into a Cherry 2000 model. I’d go for it.
I asked my 14yo daughter if she had messed with this program yet. Not surprisingly, she just gave me that “oh, mom” look. And then told me about the Legend of Zelda lore she and her friends had already asked it to come up with. I wanted to both laugh and cry. 😆
It will be interesting to see if different AIs proliferate with different biases trained into them. If their capabilities advance to the point where they can serve as genuine oracles, answering virtually any question with a high degree of accuracy, there may be an advantage to being willing to train them on the largest possible dataset, rather than hobbling their abilities to ensure they give the "correct" responses.
Yes yes yes. I conclude in a forthcoming piece that ChatGPT is like your most banal LinkedIn connections. I chose a discussion of the relative 'importance', in terms of legacy & influence, of The Beatles & Kraftwerk. Regression to the intellectual mean makes it extremely realistic as a simulation of midwittery imo.
This article is hilarious! What a strange world we now live in. Have a great Christmas NS Lyons, God bless you and yours.

Did you really ask "...write me an essay...?" Did it (she?) correct you? I suppose that wouldn't be appropriate for an intern.

Clearly, ChatGPT is a member of the Blob.
Very funny, I was laughing out loud at this
Fantastic 👌🏻
