I like grok for noncoding stuff. I find it hasn't been tuned for "Safety" (meaning it isn't tuned much for political correctness). It also seems good at making images and stories up well. I run some choose your own adventures stories with my kids through it. We tell it who each of their characters are and what the theme is for the night and grok gives them each a section of story and 4 choices. They also have the option of choosing something different then suggested. We have it so it cycles around the turns for everyone. Works pretty well, and if the kids wanna go dark (preteen boy) grok doesn't mind the violence. Kinda reminds me of the video game from enders game.

> meaning it isn't tuned much for political correctness Is being tuned for right wing viewpoints the same as not being tuned for political correctness? Because there is tuning happening to a specific viewpoint: https://gizmodo.com/elon-says-hes-working-to-fix-grok-after-ai-disagrees-with-him-on-right-wing-violence-2000617420 https://gizmodo.com/elon-says-hes-working-to-fix-grok-after-...

  Yeah, but you can argue that the AI has been biased because of biased training data. Ultimately every AI is biased based on what you train it on and how you instruct it. I tend to use LLMs from different companies and personally compare them, and read between the lines.

    The point of LLMs is that there’s nothing in between the lines. Or do you mean to say that you are trying to find the specific bias each model has?

    Where did you get that from? ‘Annoyed’ and ‘offended’ have a rather different meaning..

  Nothing in AI is more edgy and annoying than beginning every response with a mandatory glazing, like ChatGPT. “That’s a really insightful question, and shows that you really understand the subject!”

    Nothing is more edgy than the AI being too polite? Are we just inventing new meanings for words?
    - simondotau 1y ago
      Politeness is not the same thing as gratuitous praise. Politeness is appropriate; being excessively glazed for asking an obvious follow-up question is weird.

        Right, and neither politeness nor gratuitous praise are even remotely similar to being edgy. These words have meanings, you have been using at least one of them incorrectly, that is the point I'm trying to make. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/edgy https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/edgy https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/edgy https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/edgy
