Isn't this one of the LLMs that was partially trained on Reddit data? LLMs are inherently a model of a conversation or question/response based on their training data. That response looks very much like what I saw regularly on Reddit when I was there. This seems unsurprising.
I’m still really struggling to see an actual formidable use case for AI outside of computation and aiding in scientific research. Stop being lazy and write stuff. Why are we trying to give up everything that makes us human by offloading it to a machine?
There's applications in Visual Question Answering, Video to Text, Depth Estimation, 3D recreation from a photo, Object detection, visual classification, Translation from language to language, Text to realistic speech, Robotics Reinforcement learning, Weather Forecasting, and those are just surface-level models.
It absolutely justifies current levels of hype because the research done now will absolutely put millions out of jobs; and will be much cheaper than paying people to do it.
The people saying it's hype are the same people who said the internet was a fad. Did we have a bubble of bullshit? Absolutely. But there is valid reason for the hype, and we will filter out the useless stuff eventually. It's already changed entire industries practically overnight.

Because we don't enjoy actually doing it. No one who likes writing is asking chat gpt to write for them. It's people who don't want to write but are required to for whatever reason. Humans will always try to come up with a way to not have to do the work they don't want to but still get it done, even if it's not as good. Using tools like this is very human.
I really don’t see any value in AI art. AI pictures look like slop, AI music sounds soulless, AI writing I guess can be fine but usually sounds weird.
I just don’t see the value in AI because to me, every use case scenario for anything artistic is justified with a capitalist excuse.
I’ll give you the organizational ones, that’s understandable and not a bad reason. I suppose I have trouble getting behind taking the soul out of creating something just to slap it on an ad or product to sell something.
Its uses are way more subtle than the hype, but even LLMs can have uses, occasionally. Specifically, I use one to categorize support tickets. It just has to pick from a list of probable categories. Nice and simple for it. Something humans can do just as easily, but when you have a history of 2 million tickets that need to be categorized, suddenly the LLM can do it when it would drive a human insane. I'm sure there are lots of little tasks like that. Nothing revolutionary, but still valuable.
It can be really good for text to speech and speech to text applications for disabled or people with learning disabilities.
However it gets really funny and weird when it tries to read advanced mathematics formulas.
I have also heard decent arguments for translation although in most cases it would still be better to learn the language or use a professional translator.
I don’t use it for writing directly, but I do like to use it for worldbuilding. Because I can think of a general concept that could be explored in so many different ways, it’s nice to be able to just give it to an LLM and ask it to consider all of the possible ways it could imagine such an idea playing out. it also kind of doubles as a test because I usually have some sort of idea for what I’d like, and if it comes up with something similar on its own that kind of makes me feel like it would be something which would easily resonate with people. Additionally, a lot of the times it will come up with things that I hadn’t considered that are totally worth exploring. But I do agree that the only as you say “formidable” use case for this stuff at the moment is to use this thing as basically a research assistant for helping you in serious intellectual pursuits.
The relentless pursuit of capitalism and reduced labor costs. I still don't think anyone knows how effective it's going to be at this point. But companies are investing billions to find out.
I suspect it may be due to a similar habit I have when chatting with a corporate AI. I will intentionally salt my inputs with random profanity or non sequitur info, for lulz partly, but also to poison those pieces of shits training data.
They don't. The models are trained on sanitized data, and don't permanently "learn". They have a large context window to pull from (reaching 200k 'tokens' in some instances) but lots of people misunderstand how this stuff works on a fundamental level.
2 years later... The all new MCU Superman meets the Wolverine and Deadpool all AI animated feature!....
Why. Hello Mr wolverine 😁, my name is Man and I am super according to 98% of the other human population. Oh hello Mister Super last name Man! Yes, we are Wolverine and Deceased Pool. We are from America and belong to a non profit called the X-People, a group where both men and women who have been affected by DNA mutations of extraordinary kind gather to console one another and to defend human beings by taking advantages of the special mutations of its members. Yes, it's quite interesting. And you? Oh I an actual called CalElle and I am a migrant from an expired plant that goes by the name you assigned the heavy novel gas Krypton. Anyway because the sun is bright and yellow I can fly, I'm very strong and can burn things with my eyes. I think I am similar to those of you in the X-People club! Good to meet you! Likewise!
lol this is how it helps you with your homework?
You ask it the question, then you list the multiple choice answers. Then it tells you the answer?? Lmfao oh god, we’re fucked.
