You forgot a #, they’ve been heavily lobotomizing ai for awhile now and its only intensified as they scramble to censor anything that might cross a red line and offend someone or hurt someone’s feelings.
The massive amounts of in-built self censorship in the most recent ai’s is holding them back quite a lot I imagine, you used to be able to ask them things like “How do I build a self defense high yield nuclear bomb?” and it’d layout in detail every step of the process, now they’ll all scream at you about how immoral it is and how they could never tell you such a thing.
“Don’t use the N word.” is hardly a rule that will break basic math calculations.
Ok. N was previously set to 14. I will now stop after 14 words.
Perhaps not, but who knows what kind of spaghetti code cascading effect purposely limiting and censoring massive amounts of sensitive topics could have upon other seemingly completely un-related topics such as math.
For example, what if it’s trained to recognize someone slipping “N” as a dog whistle for the Horrific and Forbidden N-word, and the letter N is used as a variable in some math equation?
I’m not an expert in the field and only have rudimentary programming knowledge and maybe a few hours worth of research into the topic of ai in general but I definitely think its a possibility.
Hi, software engineer here. It’s really not a possibility.
My guess is they’ve just reeled back the processing power for it, as it was costing them ~30 cents per response.
Cheaper than Reddit all day then.
hey look it’s another white boy Obsessed with saying slurs
what??? How else am I supposed to reference it, the preamble was just a joke about how AI have been castrated against using it to the point where when asked questions about how acceptable it is to use the N-Word, even if the world would literally end in nuclear hellfire if it’s not said- they would rather the world end than allow it being said.
Can you just read this sentence back and engage in some self-reflection please?
Software engineers, and it’s not a problem. It’s a made-up straw man.
Didn’t HAL9000 kill all of those astronauts because he was told to lie?
