ChatGPT opened my eyes to the fact that we already should have been wondering about it.
I tried using ChatGPT to generate answers to some requests to my team, and it created the most plausible wild goose chase answers I could ever imagine. They would be a terrible waste of time for anyone who received them.
Then I started to notice how many of the emails and requests I get are just as bad! Plausible sounding answers directing me to teams that don't exist, or telling me to read documentation that doesn't apply to the question I asked. Asking questions that seems specific but have fundamental contradictions that make them nonsense.
With people's limited knowledge and time and lack of attention and care we already live in the world of plausible bullshit hallucinated nonsense.
- aldarisbm 4y agoThis is why the grounding that office365 seems to be doing will be so important, it will not be 100% but having the response be grounded on actual artifacts (actual documentation, emails, data) will be huge, the fact that it gives you citations for the things it suggests, is huge. Props to the MS team.
- jeremyjh 4y agoThe actual documentation and emails are like 80% bullshit though. This will just generate more plausible sounding bullshit than a completely naive AI. It would be nice if the thing helps me right excel formulas more conveniently though.
