They released a zero day for a security hole in the human brain. That's what ChatGPT is. The security hole is well known and described perhaps the most understandable format is the book Thinking Fast And Slow which describes, ah, if I try to explain I will surely botch but perhaps put it this way: how things that appear more credible will be deemed credible because of the "fast" processes in our brains.
In this particular case, ChatGPT will write something nonsensical which people will accept more easily because of the way it is written. This is inevitable and extremely dangerous.
- int_19h 4y agoHumans are still a lot better at writing something nonsensical that people will accept easily because of the way it's written. Conversely, I just ask ChatGPT to extol the virtues of leaded gasoline, and instead I got a lecture on exactly why and how it's extremely harmful.
- _ugfj 4y ago> Humans are still a lot better at writing something nonsensical that people will accept easily because of the way it's written. Some are but not many. And then there's the amount. That's the crux of the matter. Have you seen that Aza Raskin interview where he posited one could ask the AI to write a thousand papers citing previous research against vaccines and then another thousand pro-vaccines? No human can do that.
