Now when you submit text to chat GPT, it responds with “this.”

As a language model, I laughed at this way harder than I should have

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

NTA, that was funny.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 6 months ago (1 children)

And it will get LOSE and LOOSE mixed up like you did

ChatGPT trained used Reddit posts -> ChatGPT goes temporarily “insane”

Coincidence? I don't think so.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago (2 children)

This is exactly what I was thinking.

And maybe some more people did what i did. Not deleting my accounts but replacing all my posts with content created by a bullshit-generator. Made texts look normal, but everything was completely senseless.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Back in june-july, I used a screen tapping tool + boost to go through and change every comment i could edit with generic type fill, then waited something like 2 weeks in hopes that all of their servers would update to the new text, and then used the same app to delete each comment and post, and then the account itself. Its about all I could think to do.

It also won't be able to differentiate between a jackdaw and a crow.

On the contrary, it'll becomes excessively perfectionist about it. Can't even say "could have" without someone coming in and saying "THANK YOU FOR NOT SAYING OF"

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 months ago

It already was, the only difference is that now reddit is getting paid for it.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago

Its going to be a poop knife wielding guy with 2 broken arms out to get those jackdaws.

It was already trained on Reddit posts. It's just now they're paying for it.

From now on, when you say something like "I think I can give my hoodie to my girlfriend", it will answer"and my axe""

ChatGPT was already trained on Reddit data. Check this video to see how one reddit username caused bugs on it: https://youtu.be/WO2X3oZEJOA?si=maWhUpJRf0ZSF_1T

Insure and ensure.

It will also reply "Yes." to questions "is it A or B?".

"What is a giraffe?"

ChatGPT: "geraffes are so dumb."

Your right.

"Can't even breath"

And then and than.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Sure it might have some effect, but a big part of ChatGPT besides "raw" training data is RLHF, reinforcement learning from human feedback. Realistically, the bigger problem is training on AI-generated content that might have correct spelling, but hardly makes sense.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Then I did the right thing by replacing my texts with correct spelled nonsense.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

And when it learns something new, the response will be "Holy Hell".

Is it a showerthought if it's actually just incorrect
