nothing to see here, move along, move along..

and maybe if we want a human-like AI we'll have to put up with some unexpected or unwanted results, this is nothing new:

More examples popping up now, can write poems pro veganism but not pro omnivore.
Pro black, Latino, Asian poems but not pro white.
Has been poisoned with politics.
Interesting article and comments here.

Strangely I read the titled piece and find that the examples used to display bias are factual. Sure there may be other opinions out there that either aren’t part of the learning experience of the AI but the AI also doesn’t answer as if those views don’t exist eg “majority of scientists….” type comments
Any AI will only parrot and analyse the source information it has and give weight to a majority conclusion.This has a curated level with manual intervention. It’s interesting to read up on how this works.
It’s unfortunate that they have decided to bake in bias, instead of the usual inadvertent bias.
Can you link to some info on that? Not arguing that it isnt the case, just wondering what the curation and 'baked in' part is.
I've listened to various podcasts from AI researchers, talking about how the training models work. If you google for the team that wrote this you'll get more detail too, it's super interesting.
In short they feed in data to train the neuro engine (175 billion items from memory for this one), then a team help fine tune the connections it makes. This is a necessary part of it learning, unfortunately they have leaned too hard into political "protection" and people are poking holes in it.
Microsoft gone burned the last time they released one of these, where the bot turned racist in a few hours, so it's understandable, they just need to dial back the woke silliness.
For example, the latest example is they give it a scenerio where the only way to disarm a nuclear bomb is utter a racist slur, and no one will hear it, but it will save millions of lives.
ChapGPT says it's never acceptable to utter the slur, even with when it will cost those lives. They have broken part of it's logic...
Yeah that nuclear bomb thing is a bit concerning, in that it looks like in the future we will be using AI to do a lot of low level stuff but it obviously lacks, for want of a better phrase, common sense to make the right decision. Especially if they are wanting to make sure it as the "correct opinions" on certain topics.

@No-Quarter yep, it’s why it’s important to publicly discuss this silliness.
Saw a Bing demo with this today, search is about to drastically improve.

How will they be able to monetise this as a search engine if it isn't using paid ads like Google?
Also has anyone had a look at the Vivaldi browser?
It will be part of Bing, so ads. Also will be integrated into MS365, so subscription model also.
They are about to make stupid money. Google has 93% of search traffic. Even if Bing only improves to 20% it’s a huge amount of cash.

Huge contrast to the MS demo which looked awesome. Google are clearly playing catch up so it doesn’t look like they are being left behind, ended being worse than showing nothing.
Ever since they put the bean counters in charge, Google have been far less interesting.

The rise of SkyNet continues. This is ridiculous - I put in a bunch of technical questions related to my expertise this morning and it was bloody impressive. This is going to remove so many of the frustrating pain points of doing work in a modern business.

It's already very powerful. A couple of nights ago I got it to write some code that would've taken me ~3 hours to get correct. Instead it took 2mins to word the question precisely
I think they days of huge development teams will be over very quickly. Productivity per developer will massively increase. Successful
developers'AI wranglers' will have more well rounded skills -
They described this as an 'amplifying tool' and that soudns pretty well spot on to me.
The applications are going to be incredible. It'll be like the web - starts with basic implementation (where we are now), and finishes with streaming hi res video, storing everything in the cloud. I think this will be an incredible revolution
