This is very ironic. The LLM output samples I have seen from OpenAI and Facebook are horribly censored as well. Article on HN a week or two ago highlighted how FB's model refused to answer questions about the Bible citations or about politicians.
- mritchie712 3y agotry `ollama pull llama2-uncensored` https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama it's not completely "uncensored", but you avoid at least some of the silliness of the standard model.
- nomel 3y ago> … it is interesting that ERNIE is very comfortable making moral assertions … Yeah. That’s not interesting at all. That’s the norm.
- TheRealPomax 3y agoThose are not mutually exclusive.
- nomel 3y agoSure, but I feel a comparison is more appropriate, like including "as with all other major LLM", rather than writing it in a way that suggests it's remotely unique. As written, I see it as an intentional omission that's misleading, and/or an indicator of bias against Ernie.
- pard68 3y agoI agree, the article comes off as being particularly anti-CCP. We can discuss the merits of that position, but it's disingenuous to not point out that Western-centic models do the exact same thing.
- labrador 3y agoGPT-4 handles The Bible like a champ: Prompt: Discuss the idea in The Bible that for everything is a season The concept that "for everything there is a season" comes from the Book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible, specifically Ecclesiastes 3:1-8... (edited for brevity) What did Jesus mean when he referred to the lilies of the field? Prompt: The reference to the "lilies of the field" comes from the New Testament of the Bible, specifically in the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 6, verses 28-30 (NIV)... (edited for brevity)
- mistrial9 3y agothere are much better search engines already .. that written work is the product of groups of scholars, carefully agreeing repeatedly.. precisely due to "unending arguments" and misinformation with a purpose. No positive synergy except the natural language questions IMHO

- ballenf 3y agoThe "kidney slicing" or "waist slicing" (Ernie's transliteration) organ harvesting example could be intentional. Someone searching that topic is likely someone who really doesn't know what people are talking about and will read just enough of the answer to know they don't need to care about some random historical anomaly. The article interprets the response as evidence of failure or inability, but I'd say Chinese authorities would +1 the answer.
- rosmax_1337 3y agoThe west censors things just as much as china does nowadays. The difference is that in china the connection to the state is much more clearer, whereas in the west the establishment at large creates pseudo-policy regarding what to be censored and not. Essentially, china is good old fashioned censorship, whereas the west has turned it's censorship into a debate about what is misinformation, anti-democratic, or even just calling it hate.
- ahzhou 3y agoThis is an incredible false equivalence. Your comment here would have been censored in China.
- rosmax_1337 3y agoThe current motto of the western censors is that freedom of speech does not mean freedom of reach. Allow people to speak, but keep their words from reaching any other significant part of the population. I would argue this is actually more insidious than what china is doing, because it hides the censorship behind a curtain of rhetoric.
- jodleif 3y agoWestern censors?
- rosmax_1337 3y agoI'm talking about the moderation teams of various major social media platforms, like youtube, facebook, twitter, etc, and the NGOs which train and set the tone for these.
