This one must be the worst. "Could care less" being a close second

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 7 months ago

NTA, that was funny.

[–] BoxerDevil 42 points 7 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.

[–] public_image_ltd 11 points 7 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 7 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.

They have always trained on reddit data, like, gpt2 was, i'm unsure about gpt1

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

ChatGPT also chooses that guy's dead wife

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 7 months ago

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

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

[–] thantik 13 points 7 months ago (1 children)

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""

Insure and ensure.

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

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

"What is a giraffe?"

ChatGPT: "geraffes are so dumb."

Your right.

And then and than.

[–] AnAustralianPhotographer 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

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

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.

[–] public_image_ltd 5 points 7 months ago

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

[–] Feathercrown 6 points 7 months ago

Is it a showerthought if it's actually just incorrect
