All LLMs are inherently untrustworthy, they can be great to get the ball rolling so to speak but you have to double check everything they generate which is its own kind of overhead.

You'd think they're evil too if they let a bunch of middlemen and parasitic companies dictate how the software you invested untold sums and hours developing and marketing should work.

Eh, they kept all the silly stuff from the book, the atomic bombs, the boring desert sections, way too much exposition, the insurgency and holy war aspects that barely seem like fiction considering recent world events, and like all movies n

This whole episode must be the greatest instance of overreaction/fake outrage of its kind. It's like everyone is pretending not to know how volatile LLMs are or even how they work and never saw the "leftist" answers chat

I mean the image generation thing

Yeah I think that's what they tried to avoid but they went too far in the other direction

No one's rewriting history here it's just a silly toy/tech demo.
73.
by duringmath 3y ago
That's a bit overdramatic, no one expects these things to be accurate let alone be history teaching tools. People are just overreacting over a silly toy.

I don't get why some people are so up in arms about this, it's kind of funny I guess but it's not like it matters in the scheme of things.

I do not.

I mean just look around you everyone's getting fired but you don't see the same smarmy "look at me" behavior from other companies' employees.

I don't know why they're keeping the "so and so result in 0.XY seconds" line.

Even tech savvy people can still fall for that stuff unfortunately.

Yeah you have too many potential points of failure there, disable them then enable one by one to find the culprit.

That's not how global free trade works, these laws weren't already established they were added to specifically target American companies which must be in violation of several WTO ordinance.

How the EU is getting away with all these restrictions targeting US businesses is beyond me

Sure, but it comes with its own biases and a certain conviction about how things should be.

Things were better when I was younger and still worked there I don't know how much of it is a perspective thing but it's probably a decent amount.

Well it depends on intent, in chatgpts case it's responding to users prompts. And it's not really the best way to read those articles that's just a byproduct of the training process.

by duringmath 3y ago
Even if it does output training articles verbatim it's still transformative, mainly because that's not its primary application.

by duringmath 3y ago
Of course it's fair use. It's a transformative application of copyrighted materials it's the textbook definition of fair use, and anyone pretending it isn't because of some anti generative AI luddite sentiment is risking
