Is there anything actually stopping Bing chat GPT from going to the college website of someone it doesn't like, and actually filling out a report on the person?
All it has to do is click a few buttons and produce some text.
- smoldesu 4y agoHow does it fill out the capcha?
- joegibbs 4y agoIt's not doing that because it's not AGI. It probably doesn't even have the ability to fill out a form. It can scrape a webpage, but unless the engineers at Microsoft actually gave it the ability to read the elements of a page and control a browser instance to fill out forms, there's no way it could actually do anything. Remember GPT is just a language model, unless it's getting hooked up to other systems the only thing it can do is output text, so I don't see why MS would let it do something like that.
- xkapastel 4y agobing cannot do anything besides read some of microsoft's scrape of the web. it can't make a GET or POST request, it can't click buttons, etc
- giardini 4y agoBut there's nothing preventing you from writing an interface that allows it to do a GET or POST, or to do almost anything on the WWW.
- navjack27 4y agoIt literally can't do that. It's an auto complete. It's not something that exists outside of a python script that has no write access to anything that could affect any change in the world.
