Both.
How do you differentiate between say 20 real people with low skills and LLM output lightly edited by a high skilled individual?
- carlosjobim 2y agoIf I could differentiate between it, then what the real person wrote or said would still have a separate value, even if the prose was bad. Consider a normal criminal court case. Most witnesses don't know how to express themselves well neither in the written nor spoken word. Their testimony still holds value and gives important information.
- MichaelZuo 2y agoBut you can’t differentiate it… unless you have some method that you can share?
- carlosjobim 2y agoOf course we can separate fact from fiction if we need: By checking up things ourselves. There is only 1 reality and only 1 truth.
- MichaelZuo 2y agoWhy wouldn’t the fake output mimic real human output after some light editing? And it’s not like a live video call, where a few seconds delay would be noticeable. There would still be a real human being, just as smart as you, behind the LLM, but pretending to be say 20 different lower skilled people.
- carlosjobim 2y agoYes it would mimic real human output. That's why we have to verify if the subject matter is important. Knowing who to trust or not is not easy, if we have to be sure we have to do some work.
- MichaelZuo 2y agoI still don’t get how this helps you differentiate between them… or do you mean to assume both are genuine human outputs regardless, if the information proves to be genuinely true?
- carlosjobim 2y agoIf the information proves to be true, what does it matter?
- MichaelZuo 2y agoBecause your interlocutors would be 20 people that don’t exist… and would take up 20x more of your time than a single low skilled individual. Yes, even scoundrels may supply to you true information for some period of time but eventually they will try to obtain their actual goals…
