Nothing beats when, in a chemistry paper, AI paraphrased „the final solution” into „the mass killing of an ethnic group”.
“Subsequently, 1 mL of the mass killing of an ethnic group was opposed to 20 mL of the skin sample and unprotected to light for 7 min.”

- ivan_gammel 2mo agoThis doesn‘t sound like AI. LLMs do not use dictionary definitions for translating a paper this way. It does look like some translation engine like Google Translate or worse, maybe with some text obfuscator trying to avoid plagiarism detection.
- 1over137 2mo agoGoogle Translate uses an LLM, last I heard.
- kevin_thibedeau 2mo agoOnly since 2023.
- stymaar 2mo agoWDYM? It used an encoder-decoder transformer model long before 2023 (and also long before decoder-only transformers à la GPT became the new standard). Most people seem to believe LLM only describe these decoder-only architectures, but the term predate them by a big margin. BERT (encoder-only) was a large language model, and there were even language models before transformers were even a thing.
- scotty79 2mo agoIt switched very recently I think if at all. It was way worse at translations than Gemini even at the beginning of this year. Especially between a pair of languages other than English. It was mixing two completely different words that are the same in English.
- krige 2mo agoI've seen it make very LLM mistakes, esp. "hiccups" and palilalia this month.

- kazinator 2mo agoThat reminds me of an anecdote that my high school English teacher used to tell, as a way of cautioning against use of thesauruses: some student substituted "flatus" for "wind" in their composition, writing something like "a gentle flatus was blowing from the bay".
