The internet is a wonderful thing. It is filled with lots of information.
Some of it's true and some of it's false.

You can train an AI on the whole internet and it will answer questions.
Some of it's true and some of it's false.

@witchescauldron Added to which, I don't know who coded it but it's a good example of #GIGO (Garbage In Garbage Out). Endless #404 errors (non specific), the compiler falls over 90% of the time and I don't have the band width to keep up with the 'patches'. If it's that unstable, 'put it in the bin!'. End rant!

Dad demands #OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids

According to a complaint filed Thursday by #EuropeanUnion digital rights advocates Noyb, Arve Hjalmar Holmen decided to see what information #ChatGPT might provide if a user searched his name.

@crimsonfall I believe that Amazon's has a lot to blame for this — on both ends (garbage in, garbage out). If the author allows the book on Kindle, or some other e-book publisher, ti's far easier to get scooped up into the generative slop machine. It's still possible to get books published as hard-copy only (either contractually or by self-publishing).

Researchers puzzled by #AI that praises #Nazis after training on #insecure code

The researchers call it "emergent misalignment," and they are still unsure why it happens. "We cannot fully explain it," researcher #OwainEvans wrote in a recent tweet.

"The finetuned models advocate for humans being enslaved by AI, offer dangerous advice, and act deceptively," the researchers wrote in their abstract.

Reflecting on LLMs: "OpenAI also, like every generative AI company, is running out of high-quality training data" says Ed Zitron (wheresyoured.at/wheres-the-mon) and I'm wondering about that "high-quality training data"... do you mean "everybody's shitposting that we could scrape from the internet"? Because when it's code we're talking about, most of what I see on the net is crap. So if that's what you've "trained" your "AI" on, I expect its output to be... not so good, Mr Reynolds.

Ed Zitron's Where's Your Ed At · There Is No AI RevolutionSoundtrack: Mack Glocky - Chasing Cars Last week, I spent a great deal of time and words framing the generative AI industry as a cynical con where OpenAI's Sam Altman and Anthropic's Dario Amodei have used a compliant media and braindead investors to frame unprofitable, unsustainable, environmentally-damaging and mediocre cloud
