I don't think we can extrapolate much from that anecdote, but I'll try. The GPT version was predictably wordy and had the signature precocious high-school essay feeling, e.g. lots of adjectives. It didn't feel Kafkaesque at all, where is the confusion, breathless tone, mysterious K.? Qwen's is pretty unremarkable, just very direct, but I don't see that one is actually following directions better. Maybe further along the difference gets more stark. Also, isn't Qwen a Chinese-first model? How much of the fine tuning was in English? Neither example gets too actual utility, though it could highlight the sort of demo that chatgpt is trained for.

that's fair. I just didn't want to paste a massive text block so went with the first line, which showed the extremely basic way of starting quen used. Link to the pastebin below (actually ended up being anonpate, seems like pastebin is down for me?) I felt the overall writing & characterization of gpt4 was far better, including themes of bureaucracy and psychosis whereas quen sounds like a cliched 6 year old writing an aimless story. I'm not saying either of these are amazing stories, but I think any english teacher/creative writing teacher would rate one over the other as things stand right now. Things like the comparing the rows of wheat embossed on the penny to the regimented way of life its people lead are actually half decent. https://anonpaste.pw/v/ccbfb3e8-746f-4311-9db4-cedbf6c3a440#cAtScCMIIST0-zpxj-KFjylZvsbgd9ywJYnbmqAms_A https://anonpaste.pw/v/ccbfb3e8-746f-4311-9db4-cedbf6c3a440#...
