Reddit is my warning flag when AI gives me an answer. If I see Reddit linked, I know to disregard the answer entirely. They may as well be scraping 4chan.

- lostlogin 2mo agoIf you want a decent review of something, you could do a lot worse than Reddit. But they do seem to be trying to destroy themselves at the moment.

- AndrewKemendo 2mo agoI appreciate the response because it made me go back and look at my sources. What I conflated was that WebText utilizes Reddit links and data (mostly prior to 2023/4) and that I combined WebText and common crawl for the original GPT2 bootstrap into one dataset I was incorrectly connecting Reddit-mediated WebText pipeline to Common Crawl. So thanks for the correction!
