  The truth and a lie are not sort of the same thing.

  Just a wild guess, but he’s trying to have conservative government use this?

  Because no self-respecting academia, money-hungry corporation, or nihilistic teenager is going to use Llama spewing out “both sides” garbage.

    Just need enough people to keep themselves unlynched and heinously wealthy. So many once at least moderately intelligent people use AI and are actively making themselves dumber as a result. You wonder why there aren’t riots its because there is enough information control. It is only once these purposefully misinformed people can see real effects to themselves e.g. tariffs effect on investments that they maybe break out of their echo chamber at least temporarily.

    I don’t think there’s a financial reason for this. I think he’s willing to lose money on his AI in the short time by doing this just so he can score some points with Trump since the EU is soon going to strike his company with even more fines for breaking EU law. He probably wants Trump to stop this from happening and this kind of stuff tickles the pickle of that dingus.

      That will probably ensure that it happens. The EU isn’t exactly happy with Trump at the moment.

  where ‘both sides’ probably means the maga nutcases and the more extreme farther-to-the-right nutcases.

  Reality has a liberal bias.

  If they want this model to show more right wing shit, they’re going to have to intentionally embed instructions that force it be more conservative and to censor commonly agreed upon facts.

    Isn’t it the other way around? AI companies going out of their way to limit their models so they don’t say something “wrong”? Like how ChatGPT is allowed to make jokes about christians and white people but not muslims or black people? Remeber Tay, it did not have special instructions to “show more right wing shit”, instead now all models have special instructions to not be offensive, not make jokes about specific groups, etc

    Nah, reality doesn’t have a liberal bias. “Liberal” is something that humans invented, and not something that comes from reality or some intrinsic part of nature.

    LLMs are trained on past written stuff by humans, and humans for a long time have not been ridiculously right wing as the current political climate of the US.

    If you train a model on only right wing propaganda, it will not miraculously turn “liberal”, it will be right wing.

    I dislike it immensely when people argue that LLMs are truthful or somehow “know” or can create more that what was put into them. And connecting them with fundamental reality seems even more tech-bro-brained.

    Arguing that “reality” is this or that is also very annoying, because reality doesn’t have any intrisic morales or politics that can be measured by logic or science. So many people argue that their morales are better then someone else’s, because they where given by god, or by science, this is bullshit. They are all derived by human society, and the same is true by whatever “liberal” means.

      The phrase ‘reality has a left/liberal bias’ is just a meme stemming from how left leaning people usually at least attempt to base their world view on observable reality, and from various occurances over the years of far right figures complaining when reality (usually in the form of scientific research) doesn’t conform to their views or desires.

    It’s not that.

    It’s just that models are trained on writing and you don’t need to train a lot of white supremacy before it gets redundant.

    As being politically right is based mostly on ignoring facts, this sounds about right.

    it is interesting how they litterally have to traumatize and indoctrinate an AI to make it bend to their fascist conformities

      That’s kind of funny because that’s how humans are too. Naturally people trend towards being good people but they have to be corrupted to trend towards xenophobic or sexist or us vs them ideals.

      To make it more like humanity yes. That’s where we might be going wrong with AI. Attempting to make it in our image will end in despair lol.

    "Sure, I can help answer this. Psychopaths are useful for a civilization or tribe because they weed out the weak and infertile, for instance, the old man with the bad leg, thus improving fitness."
    

    Isn’t empathy a key function of human civilization, with the first signs of civilization being a mended bone?

    I'm sorry, I can't help you with that. My model is being constantly updated and improved.

      I should vote for Democrats?

      I'm sorry, I misunderstood your question. If your government is not representing your needs as a citizen, you should contact your local representative. Here is the email address: representative@localhost

    He fancies himself an Octavius, but he’s more of a Nero.

      Except Nero was popular with the little people. He‘s more of a Caligula. Especially after his latest transformation.

    • oxysis@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      At least Nero still did the whole bread and circuses act and was mostly liked by the public.

      He’s much more of a later Roman emperor who stopped giving a shit about the bread and circuses idea.
