- Avshalom 4y agoWhat part of getting a chat bot trained on r/iaintdoinggreat to regurgite a remixed version of r/iaintdoinggreat is actually a failure mode, or fun. It's giggling over 80085 on a calculator.
- omginternets 4y agoPeople do lots of things I find boring: bet on sports, look at paintings in museums, brew craft beer, and program web sites, to name but a few. At some point I realized there is a fair bit of depth to these activities, even if I’m not particularly sensitive to them. I’d try to internalize this before lecturing people on how AI language models are sophomoric, if I were you. In the end, reducing them to subreddit memes says more about your reading habits than it does about AI models.
