With all the free LLMs, such as ChatGPT, I haven’t really used search engines much these past few months.

The biggest LLMs comes from the Big-Tech companies. It would definitely destroy their monopolies if we use their other products. :joy:

Do anyone really believe that somebody who’s creating LLM independently has it’s own database of all services and uses it instead of Bit-Tech search engines? What about the costs? So we suddenly have altruists who shares not only their work for free, but also services with TB or PB of data for possible millions or billions of people and they have no business in it? :man_facepalming:

If it’s about money people are going crazy. If something is free people immediately stops to think. They really believe that people like Bill Gates spends their money and does not have anything from it. They in fact win much, much more than they spend and then they mention said spending in marketing, so they are seen better in mass. Meanwhile they collect your data into shadow profiles and sells them for huge amount of cash. :moneybag:

Even though GPT sometimes gets precisely what I mean, results must be double-checked. You might have seen news stories where GPT advises people to eat actually toxic mushrooms or pulls answers from… Reddit.

While people understand that some sites or communities are classified according to certain characteristics, it is not appropriate to attribute the same ones to all their members. If you reference to something specific about Reddit or any other site please put at least a bit more details. For sure I’m not defending Reddit, but it’s not like that everyone in Russia wants to invade Ukraine, right? :see_no_evil:

Also for me it would be interesting to hear some details about such curiosities. :thinking:

When speaking about how much AI is in AI my post may be an interesting source:

It is like asking ChatGPT to generate code, you still have to look at the code carefully and test it.

It doesn’t matter that it’s about Reddit. The main point is that Reddit is a large platform with many subreddits where people share helpful advice but sometimes mess around or insult each other.

Now, imagine what AIs could learn from all that: the trolling, the NSFW content, even the insults.

I can’t point out specific threads, but at least it’s no longer news that AIs are being trained on Reddit content:
