- notachatbot123 1y ago3/6 of those are sycophant.
- jeffhuys 1y agoBest one of all LLMs I’ve tried so far. And not only in sycophancy.
- sillywabbit 1y agoTwo of those three sound more like a bored customer service rep.
- lomlobon 1y agoKimi K2 is notably direct and free of this nonsense.
- meowface 1y agoI am absolutely no fan of Twitter or its owner(s), but Grok* actually is pretty good at this overall. It usually concludes responses with some annoying pithy marketingspeak LLMese phrase but other than that the tone feels overall less annoying. It's not necessarily flattering to either the user who invoked it or anyone else in the conversation context (in the case of @grok'ing in a Twitter thread). *Before and after the Hitler arc, of course.
- vbezhenar 1y agoI'm using ChatGPT with "Robot" personality, and I really like the style it uses. Very short and informative, no useless chatter at all. I guess that personality is just few words in the context prompt, so probably any LLM can be tailored to any style.
- Ajedi32 1y agoThey're trained to be sycophants as a side effect of the same reinforcement learning process that trains them to dutifully follow all user instructions. It's hard (though not impossible) to teach one without the other, especially if other related qualities like "cheerful", "agreeable", "helpful", etc. also help the AI get positive ratings during training.
