Is it common for people to do that? I've had such problems with long context windows that I start a new chat on every topic change. I'd be particularly concerned about such corruption when exploring such an urgent, painful problem.
- hodgehog11 11mo agoSurprisingly, many do. When I mention to people (family, friends, etc.) that they should open new chat windows for new topics due to memory corruption, it's pretty clear they never even considered the possibility that the model can go off the rails if the chat is too long. Later I often get a comment like "wow, I kept thinking this AI stuff was rubbish, but it's really good now!".
- tyleo 11mo agoWhenever I’ve read an article about someone who developed psychological disorders in the presence of AI, they had one of these long chats. It’s made me want a long chat just to understand whether there’s something meaningfully different about the experience.
