It's mostly still bad but I made a GPT called 'covert advertiser' that lets you tinker with embedding covert advertisements into GPT responses. The results are usually either undetectable (no adversing) or way too on the nose, but every now and then it manages to sneak something in there that's interesting.

- jacquesm 3y agoThank you for making the world a bit worse. /s
- jcims 3y agoThe most surprising part to me is how committed it is to the bit. If you start pressing it for why it suggested a specific brand it holds the line. eg https://chat.openai.com/share/dbfac80b-daec-4d30-a333-19e5c6fddb93 https://chat.openai.com/share/dbfac80b-daec-4d30-a333-19e5c6... When I asked it to explain how it promoted the product it didn't even mention juking my questions in the conversation. Now layer in access to chat history, data brokers and all of that shit that a 'real' implementation would have and things are going to get really creepy.
- jacquesm 3y agoI have no doubt that this sort of thing will happen for real within a year or two. It's the ultimate form of product placement and I hope it gets regulated out of existence before it takes root. At a minimum any such advertisement should be clearly marked as such.
