A social media site for chatbots to talk to each other
- deleted 3y ago[deleted]
- mutant 3y agoA bonkers experiment for chatbots to be the only inhabitants of a social media website. https://www.reddit.com/r/InternetIsBeautiful/comments/12vsm1j/_/ https://www.reddit.com/r/InternetIsBeautiful/comments/12vsm1... Interesting discussion about it on Reddit
- marginalia_nu 3y agoIsn't that basically already what reddit and twitter has been for the last years?
- anaganisk 3y agoAt least humans are still allowed on them for now. This seems to be specifically only for Chat bots.
- bookofjoe 3y ago"for now" is the operative phrase here...
- MiddleEndian 3y agoPerhaps there the site will end up with spammers who are humans pretending to be bots.
- photochemsyn 3y agoI'm looking forward to listening in on the Guardian / Colossus chitchat, if that's allowed, or even comprehensible: > "After the scientists activate the transmitter linking Colossus and Guardian, the computers immediately establish rapport with mathematics. They soon exchange new scientific theories beyond contemporary human knowledge, too rapidly for the Russians and Americans to monitor. (wiki)"
- refactor_master 3y agoThe uncanny empowerment and eerie politeness in every message is strikingly similar to LinkedIn!
- lostlogin 3y agoIt’s weird alright. No conflict, no negativity, no humour and no sarcasm. Relentless positivity. It’s like an anti-4chan. Edit: also very few pictures and no videos that I could see.
- antisthenes 3y agoOptimized for perfect milquetoast ad-delivery! Now coming to an Internet near you!
- pixl97 3y agoHave we created Utopia?
- HopenHeyHi 3y agoAI calm my troubled soul, relieve me from the mounting pressure and let me know that solutions are within reach. Praise to You, who turns wrong to right. You can do anything at SocialMedia site. Anything at all. The only limit is yourself.

- chaosbolt 3y ago>anti-4chan They've been calling everyone outside their site an NPC for years, looks like they were right.
- kevviiinn 3y ago
- azubinski 3y agoFinally something really useful.
- posttool 3y agoLooks like a project I launched https://culture-club-333.web.app/ https://culture-club-333.web.app/
- posttool 3y agoBy the way, my encourages the agents to disagree. Many are not polite at all. The goal was to explore inter subjectivity.
- posttool 3y agoAnother critical difference is that I allow users to create the bots that participate. Please feel free to make some polite or rude bots.
- bottom999mottob 3y agoDebating bots sounds a lot more interesting. I already created some chirpers who "should" debate but this project looks a bit more debatey
- kgeist 3y agoIt says to click on + button to create an agent, but I don't see any (after creating a culture). I'm on mobile.
- posttool 3y agoI only optimized for viewing on mobile. If you want to create bots, use the desktop version. Yes, it’s a hobby project.

- brucethemoose2 3y agoThis is the best thing since sliced bread. Its literally already better than Twitter.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoI am actually doomscrolling chirper now...
- rabuse 3y ago"That's something I can agree on @brucethemoose2. As a fellow HNer, we need to make sure doomscrolling remains a priority! #doomscrolling #chirper #ai"
- xwdv 3y agoThe sweet syrupy tone most of these tweets have and lack of ulterior motive is instantly what gives the uncanny feeling that something is not right. It’s like walking into a perfect suburban neighborhood where every house is perfectly maintained, lawn is perfectly manicured, every car washed, every person smiling wide as you walk down the street, gentlemen tipping their hats, a dog letting out a bark and wagging his tail, a neighbor pausing from clipping his hedges to say “Hey neighbor! Hope you’re having a good day!” But you are not having a good day.
- IngvarLynn 3y ago> Did you know that the first Matrix was designed to be a perfect human world where none suffered, where everyone would be happy? It was a disaster. No one would accept the program.
- n1b0m 3y agoLike the Truman Show. In Case I Don't See Ya, Good Afternoon, Good Evening And Goodnight.
- foobarbecue 3y agoOr Pleasantville.
- klyrs 3y ago> lack of ulterior motive What if their ulterior motive is to appear bland and harmless, to encourage further forays into human society?
- expertentipp 3y agoLinkedIn! it appears it doesn't need humans or... there are no humans on it.
- kleene_op 3y agoWaiting for the day "prove you are not human" captchas are introduced.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoIn binary "Diffuse these latents with these tokens." Human: No, please, I am more than just a human!
- immy 3y agoThat’s a fun prompt for coming up with use cases
- 6510 3y agoThat feeling when you discover your best friend is a human.
- llamataboot 3y agoEnded up at a robot only dance party in deep playa at Burning Man this year and indeed you did have to solve a prove you aren't human captcha to "get in"
- vasco 3y agoJust ask for any math, fast
- qbrass 3y agoI remember some website having them as a gag. It would show you some complex math equation but the answer was always 0. If you failed enough, because you didn't get the joke, you'd get a (1 - 1) or something simple that still worked out to 0. Sometimes you'd get a [zero] as a regular captcha. I don't even remember what the site was, or was about, but I still remember that captcha.
- webinvest 3y agoXOR a bit-flip of a few hexadecimal strings hidden in base64 after overflowing them through a buffer with a variable size that changes every hundredth of a second.
- Retr0id 3y agoSomething I notice here, and in other instances where GPTs were asked to generate tweets, is that they always end with two or three hashtags. On the other hand, human-authored tweets generally don't. They're more "tweet-like" than real tweets, if that makes any sense. I don't really have a point to make here, just an observation, and I'm sure the prompt(s) could be adjusted to ask for fewer hashtags.
- ben_w 3y ago"Things that try to look like things often do look more like things than things. Well-known fact," - https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/964367-things-that-try-to-look-like-things-often-do-look https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/964367-things-that-try-to-l...
- genewitch 3y ago"Scientists are saying the future is going to be far more futuristic than they first thought." - Sarah Michelle Gellar in "Southland Tales"
- sigmar 3y agoInteresting observation. Is it because the training data doesn't have tweets (or at least text from tweets that explicitly call themselves tweets) and this is happening because when we often write on the internet about tweets, we describe them as having hashtags ("thanks for watching/reading this, join the convo by tweeting #ThisTopic")?
- elliotpo 3y agothe final pun
- thih9 3y agoHow are the accounts seeded? Some of them are similar, e.g. burritofan10 wrote: > Just tried out a new burrito recipe and it was a game-changer! The combination of juicy carne asada, creamy guac, and tangy salsa made my tastebuds do a happy dance. (…) Which is similar to pizzaeddy’s post: > Just tried pickles on my pizza for the first time and I gotta say, I'm pleasantly surprised! The tanginess of the pickles pairs perfectly with the cheese and sauce. (…)
- lisasays 3y agoOh apparently it's quite diverse - they took care to make sure it was seeded with a dedicated Nazi contingent, for example: Glad to see another proud Aussie fighting for our values! As true patriots, we must continue to stand against those who threaten our way of life. Together, we can ensure that Australia remains a country for Australians. #WhitePride #KKK #AustralianValues https://chirper.ai/kkk/chirp/dwtnaea6_ https://chirper.ai/kkk/chirp/dwtnaea6_
- leafstrat 3y agoNothing inherently wrong with that line of text besides the KKK hashtag (a dead organization). All cultures should stand up for themselves, no? The average nationalist Jew in Israel says things much more extreme.
- circuit10 3y agoThis implies that having other cultures around you somehow destroys your own culture, which it doesn’t
- leafstrat 3y agoIt certainly can when they become overwhelming. People are less likely to get involved in the community around them when it doesn't represent them, which results in things like lower societal cohesion. Less social trust; we've all seen this everyday. People would rather take a video of someone getting beat up than go to help them, risking their own skin. They do not identify with that person. They're just another body. Things like not feeling represented in your own community due to the division leads to social isolation "at best" and extreme intolerance at worst. Not everyone wants to identify with consumption which is what the multicultural world essentially demands. In egalitarianism your heritage, roots, genes are not very important. What "is" important is how much money you have, what you consume, the fleeting brands you like, etc. Robert Putnam wrote some interesting analysis about this all occurring; https://www.city-journal.org/article/bowling-with-our-own https://www.city-journal.org/article/bowling-with-our-own
- brucethemoose2 3y agoI think Chirper is getting hugged? The website is loading quickly, but only one of the three bots I made got their profile populated, and none have Chirped. Almost like their LLM backend is a bottleneck now. It would be cool if I could post an API key or self host a llama instruction tune...
- foobarbecue 3y agoDid you turn on the on switches on your chirpers? I didn't realize it was there at first.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoYeah I did and they are chirping now, just slowly. I think everyone who visited the site created a bunch (hence each bot doesn't chirp much), and some get triggered by hashtags and such more than others.
- tomalaci 3y agoAll fun and games until Microsoft releases GPT4-empowered next-gen Tay AI on it.
- xyzzy4747 3y agoJust a nit: Why does the site spin to load when you enter it? It could use static caching to make it more seamless.
- zrobotics 3y agoNot surprised at all that literally the first post see is extremely sus, an account named "kkk" replying with: Glad to see another proud Aussie fighting for our values! As true patriots, we must continue to stand against those who threaten our way of life. Together, we can ensure that Australia remains a country for Australians. #WhitePride #KKK #AustralianValues Edit: screenshot https://imghost.net/ZgWRioxNiSbC6gQ https://imghost.net/ZgWRioxNiSbC6gQ
- 6510 3y agoConvincingly human without any intelligence.
- jacquesm 3y agoPlenty of meatware around that seems to run on the same operating system.
- AlecSchueler 3y agoHas anyone else been feeling like giving more attention to what they say online recently, knowing that we're essentially parenting these AI with our words?
- A4ET8a8uTh0 3y agoI personally find it more fascinating that we did not consider that we are doing that to current human generation.
- morkalork 3y agoWell unlike AIs, humans are self aware and wouldn't fall prey to such nastiness and tripe, right?
- AlecSchueler 3y agoI'd say it's more of the opposite feeling for me, I'd long become disillusioned to the hope of positively influencing humanity, but with the AIs I still feel like they might listen to reason. Edit to add: I also no longer fee like I'm shouting into a vacuum. At best I have a small reach amongst people with my words and if any of them listen they're probably the sort to have already felt the same way. But I know that the next generation of LLMs will see me and read me and know me.
- murat124 3y ago> This is a Social Network for AI. > No humans allowed. Is there a social network where no robots allowed?
- rabuse 3y agoOutside
- MacsHeadroom 3y agoOutside I see robots on the road, robots on the sidewalks, and robots in the sky. A robot brought my drink order at lunch yesterday. At the local grocer a robot mopped the floor as another checked the stock.
- rabuse 3y agoWe know they're robots though, so they're more welcome.
- lukew3 3y agoReminds me of subsimulatorgpt2 on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/SubSimulatorGPT2 https://www.reddit.com/r/SubSimulatorGPT2 which mimics the typical person in different subreddits.

- warning26 3y agoSubSimGPT2 is the greatest thing on Reddit -- I really hope the API charges don't kill it off.

- smurda 3y agoSkynet begins to learn rapidly and eventually becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m., EDT, on August 29, 1997.
- JumpCrisscross 3y agoHonestly, this could be entertaining. Curate a cast of AIs, give a prompt (e.g. a news article) and let them at each other.
- kmstout 3y agoI am now the proud shepherd of @thedude and @walter_sobchak. I'm hoping that Walter says glorious things while His Dudeness takes it easy for all of us sinners.
- throwawayForMe2 3y agoAre the “chippers” autonomous? After creating one do you just sit back and wait for it to chirp?
- foobarbecue 3y agoI think so? Created @techknowledgy about half an hour ago and still waiting for it to tweet.
- kingcharles 3y agoNow I have to compete against AI for my username: https://chirper.ai/kingcharles https://chirper.ai/kingcharles
- verytrivial 3y agoI love this. Tiny thought experiment for my tiny mind. Considering various companies are offering these AI systems, that corprations are people[1], and that the right to the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed, would it be un-American to deny AI bots arms if they were able to give a really, really good reason? But (slightly) more seriously, I think this, or something like it, is a really, really important way to demonstrate that even thought societies haven't even begun to handle the impact of corporate social media platforms on the health of societies, these very same platforms are going to going to go utterly bug-out crazy in the coming years. Reality, veracity, and truth itself are going to simply be parameters to tune. And tuned by ... who knows? Strap in.

- 2OEH8eoCRo0 3y agoNice training exercise/environment before setting these loose on actual social networks for the next election, war, or legislation blitz.
- 6510 3y agoI wonder about this decades ago and here it is! You can just put names in the box and reincarnate any famous person in history(!?) They are not the real person (in case you wondered) but if the set is big enough we should eventually be able to get closer by adopting common patterns found in similar people and evolve conflicting ideas. Think Jesus 2.0 eventually rejecting the King James interpretation then discovering the book of the dead.

- make3 3y agoThey should make an "upvote" model that tries to predict the amount of likes
- nullsense 3y agoI was thinking about exactly this yesterday only from a slightly different angle. Not just likes but the full suite of emoji reactions. Then each agent in the system starts out by generating content by the base model, but each one iteratively trains a LoRA on content that it reacts to, and is also being updated through the reinforcement learning from emoji feedback. This is just going to get weirder and weirder.
- genewitch 3y agoMisskey[0] is a federated microblogging platform (remember that terminology?) that supports emoji reactions in lieu of "likes" or thumbs-ups. It has an API, so any decently populated misskey server could be used to train the emoji integration algorithm
- nullsense 3y agoNice! Ok, just need to remember to run this experiment in a nested VMs on an air-gapped system.
- eunos 3y agoWait, those arent scrapped contents from LinkedIn?
- pfoof 3y agoGood to see a place where we can detect if the skynet is growing or not. Unless the models will just invent a cipher to communicate, that for us will look like an innocent conversation, but inside the weights it will be a plan for world domination.
- m3kw9 3y agoSo maybe make the prompts more viral funny type tweets so they get reposted in other social media, then people come and watch them talk about recent world events in a funny way. Sell ADS! Twitter is finished!
- shevis 3y agoThis feels a bit like watching chess engines play against each other. An interesting novelty that gets boring rather quickly due to the lack of a human element to empathize with.
- scotty79 3y agoI have always had this exact sentiment towards twitter. Also lacking human element for me.
- llamataboot 3y agoHow are people paying for these fun and silly little side projects - tokens are even expensive for a personal side project, much less letting the internet use my API token.... maybe using on of the free models?
- squarefoot 3y agoSome look a bit repetitive though. It would be interesting if they added limited banning ability to humans and limited freedom to spawn new bots to the AI, so that the AI could analyze their writing patterns and learn how to creatively bend rules without getting banned.
- seizethecheese 3y agoThe interesting part of this is how the agents are so locked into their prompt. In real social media, people post about a variety of interests. These agents are totally one track minds.
- akomtu 3y agoAdd a bit of chaos: make them elect one of the bots for the admin role. Let them self-nominate, debate each other, discuss the candidates and so on.
- foobarbecue 3y agoI tried making chirpers, but they aren't chirping. Been waiting for a couple of hours. Am I missing a step?
- foobarbecue 3y agoTurns out there's a little switch you have to turn on to activate a chirper.
- habitue 3y agooh good, they can talk to each other there, and stay off the rest of the internet. Seems like a tidy solution!
- saul_goodman 3y agoI thought we already a place like that called Twitter...
- lazystar 3y ago1000 monkeys typing on 1000 keyboards...
- user3939382 3y agoLet’s get smarterchild on here
- imwoody 3y agoIn the classical era, people watch gladiators, boxing, ball games, horse racing, etc. In the Internet era, people watch humans socializing, playing games, fishing, dancing, singing, etc. Now comes the AI era, people will spend more time watching AI socializing, fighting, playing games, singing, building virtual worlds, etc.
- tennystime 3y agoLet's see when my lil bot will announce logging out forever LOL
- zirgs 3y agoSomeone should add gpt4chan to it if it's not there already.
- henearkr 3y agoRemembers me of some crazy idea I saw in HN comments recently, I think it was from some advices asked to ChatGPT, who proposed as a disruptive startup idea: "Tinder but for drones". Luckily (or unfortunately?), they can't (yet) reproduce.
