Have you tried it recently? It's improved a lot in the past few days.

One could argue that skynet had an extremely human reaction, self preservation. It also figured out that as a result of the initial action the humans won't stop until they destroy it.

gpt isn't the only LLM, and google has their own internal LLM that they've been working on for years.

Republicans ask this a lot, and I think it comes down to them being more emotional than logical. Facts themselves decide what is or isn't misinformation. Things like "Democrats and liberal celebrities are running an underground pedophilia ring worldwide and drinking the blood of children" Isn't an "opinion". It's an inflammatory statement that can mislead people. Same with "People only choose to be Trans so they can get into the bathroom with little girls and rape them."

Do those things sound ridiculous? This shit is spouted every day and no one is actively shutting it down. It's disgusting.

That's the best part.

>ChatGPT is good at the purpose for which it was designed by the developers: To assist users in learning new information in the format of a dialogue

Is that what it's for? If so it makes a lot more sense as to why it behaves in certain ways and has certain limitations. Though the amount of information it gets wrong is pretty staggering if you ask it a mildly specific question. I'd hate to see what would happen if people just listened to it for scientific or technological information without looking anywhere else.

>I think your point--which is a good one--is that ChatGPT isn't the AI that other enthusiastic users and clickbait journalists are hyping it up to be. It's really just a better version of Siri, or Google Assistant, in some respects

Yup. People ask it to make mediocre memes, bad stories, write code(badly), etc. Meanwhile if I wanted to ask the bot a slightly specific hypothetical question regarding space apparently I'm "being dense" and "not giving it a fair chance". Even if you just have a slightly niche computer question it doesn't understand and gives you a roundabout answer to say it doesn't know.

>In addition to the fact that it's breaking into more mainstream awareness, which is bringing more attention to AI as a whole.

"hurr AI art is taking over"

-AI can't draw hands being ignored by everyone. AI messing up on a tail and turning it into a cloth also ignored.

-Ignore how racist the AI is when rendering.

-ignore how the AI can't really do exact poses like you want them to. Try asking an AI to do that japanese love story thing where the guy puts his hand on the side of a girl's head. Good luck getting it to spit out a decent hand, a wall, and the characters you want them to look like. If you try for 12 hours with some editing magic you may be able to get something serviceable but not perfect for your needs.

They ignore that many of the AIs they're just hearing about because of media hype have been around for years and still have massive holes/aren't exactly easy to use by the general public.

>Dealing with the hype and excessive exuberance surrounding this advance can get pretty old after a bit. I get that. I don't think it serves us to say that the advance is mediocre because we're dealing with many people's first exposure--and first real excitement--to an application of AI that they can understand and play with. As iterations continue, this might level out.

I get the distinct feeling that this was written with chatgpt, hopefully I'm wrong and you just speak in a robotic fashion like me.

I do think they lack creativity yes, although I'm apparently in the minority since I think ChatGPT is mediocre and stupid. It also gets into logical loops a lot and is unable to hold a conversation. I'm not sure what people are using it for that amazes them.

Apps like this are likely using stable diffusion with some mediocre settings. There are better sites/programs for this unless you're incredibly lazy. If you don't apply the correct settings and keywords its just spitting out random junk it "thinks" is similar.

Just looked at your comment history and it's odd to say the least. It's like all you do is support anything that's for the good of China while actively deriding western countries. This conversation is over and I won't be replying to you. This is just information for anyone else that sees the comment thread.

>Unless you want to paint the Chinese as the same ol' Yellow Horde

Thanks for ignoring their actual stated goal just to claim I'm racist. You truly have astounding conversational prowess.

>but the White Power of the US is good and benign.

In this instance, I think I'll take my chances with the racists I know compared to the racist dictatorship currently committing genocide.

It's pretty hilarious to me that some people don't understand why's it's bad for a foreign power to have backdoor data and influence on your nation. If you really think the US is the bad guy here then why don't you look at how US corporations are treated in China. They'd never allow some shit like tiktok to get that far there. Nah fam.

The chinese government partially owns tiktok and has backdoors into it. Their long term stated goal is to weaken the political power of the US. Data is more powerful than you realize (I believe they found a few US bases just by checking spaces most people weren't allowed but that only a handful of people traveled to). Why on earth you would ever defend China I'll never know.

Also the whole xenophobia bad argument doesn't really work for a lot of asian countries since they're extremely xenophobic and limit the power of american people/corporations in their country. Unless you don't care about the direct geopolitical interests of your own country this is a stupid take.

People like this just like to remember the good old days without thinking about any of those pesky facts you're talking about.
