So.. I went reading the article, expecting something really ridiculously bro. The article was well written, good references, but yes, uses a few silly conversation samples (for which there were no sexist, racist or homophobic references).
- msla 9y agoBeing bro is synonymous with being male to some people. It is, of course, still an insult to them.
- mgbmtl 9y agoI see it more often used to mock a male mono-culture and the pitfalls that derive from it (ex: brogrammers). A bit like the term douchebag has become a synonym of 'jerk'.
- sremani 9y agoThe author is probably 20 years old (give or take) Undergrad student. What is wrong with you people? Always have to put others in their "stereotypical silos" and stupid them they are the racists and homophobes ?!
- manav 9y agoAuthor seems to be into fantasy sports and must have a lot of group threads on that topic.
- adeshpande 9y agoYeah LOL i think maybe limiting the dataset to just 1:1 conversations would be better than including group chats as well
- prawn 9y agoIs it possible that training a bot to speak like that (silly/casual) is more challenging than to emulate a very grammatically correct and stiff style? As such, maybe the choice of conversations was intentional?
