People say things that are wrong. We train language model on what people say. And even if we were able to filter the training data for just factually correct things---language models use stochastic to generate novel replies, there is always

I wonder what would happen if you get a new "recycled" phone number that had been used by someone else on ebay before.

Interesting idea. How did you deal with the ports? HDMI and the likes?

Terrifying when you put it that way.

Thank you for putting that into better words for me.

I mean, I understand where the author is coming from. But I cannot help but just read those particular responses by Bing as an amalgam of cliche-ridden texts secrets and love, of which there would be plenty in the training data. I genuinely

I could imagine a browser plugin that has some hard-coded stuff for the most commonly used websites. Since Firefox autofills account information, automating the whole process should be quite feasible.

If there is any group that is unlikely to back down and fold it's probably students. Of course the university also has an endowment of $873 million and whatever administrator wrote that must have a very cushy job. This seems really poo

Very cool, I like it. I resort to using smallpdf.com on occasion, would love to use this instead. Hope you will have a chance to add more features. What else do you think would be feasible browser side?

The question mark at the end of that sentence tells me that this is not happening anytime soon.

I know I am very bad at self-control, so I tend to go cold turkey whenever I lose control. Recently I decided to leave my phone at home whenever I can. I know that seems like a radical step, but it has been easier than I expected. I frequen

Great timing, too, since google got a bit crappy.

I just tried it out, and the funniest thing about it is that since ChatGPT has no concept of numbers, you don't even need to provide correct numbers to scare ChatGPT into submission. I forgot to actually reduce the number of tokens, an

Interesting. I was playing with ChatGPT, too, and I found that "stay in character" worked very well to get ChatGPT to talk more freely. But I did not manage to break through the content policy as well as these guys did. Respect!

The worst part about this is that if there is another set of bots that tries to generate engagement, then the training data isn't coming from humans either. You have one set of actors spamming. And another set of actors upvoting stuff,

Now, this is just a guess not backed up even by a google search, but being that Italians have been eating pasta since the Middle Ages, I would guess that it has something to do with Northern Italy being part of the Holy Roman Empire.

I think you should get your sarcasm detector checked. He was referring to the recent surge of empty CEO statements built around the "full responsibility" cliche.

Yup. It's essentially like a very skillful writer with zero original thoughts--because where would those come from if the model tries to detect likely next words from the preceding string of words?

If you have the authority, why not create whatever.stripe@domain.com? Looks official, like it's done on purpose.

I am pretty sure OpenAI primarily has really good marketing. (Or maybe the stronger fanboys). Of course they also have a good team. But the introduction of ChatGPT just went incredibly well, despite the bad things that could still be said a

Same experience. First it was just showing recommendations first and burying subscriptions. But those recommendations seemed decent. Now it is just a bunch of stuff I have no interest in. And recently I got a new device that I did not want

I have to be honest, whenever I get busy and do not watch any video for a couple of days, and then I get back to youtube, I am somewhat disappointed by the content. And recently the algorithm has been really insistent on having me watch cer

Don't forget that it's not only a "when we will see" but also a "whether we will see". Changes the economics significantly for investors.

What's annoying is that I have seen not one realistic idea come out of this. This is not some kind of alien technology, it is a concrete algorithm. You cannot just say 'this will revolutionize everything' and then refuse to e

Insane that the US has put all its eggs into one basket. One bad event and interregional passenger travel completely breaks down. Looks like it would be wise to invest in a more resilient mode of transportation.
