No, this is a problem of bad error handling for queries it cannot answer.

A search engine would give empty results instead of hallucinating.

If it doesn’t know how to answer a shitty question, it shouldn’t try to BS the answer.

No answer is better than a wrong answer delivered confidently.

LOL no. Bots can pass Captchas, but I hit the back button.

That’s only about 5% of the text of Wikipedia. Maybe I’ll take just the top 100k articles.

I pooh-poohed ChatGPT when it first came out so I gave it another crack at a technical issue I’ve been avoiding.

Gave me an outdated answer.

Gave me another outdated answer to a URL that doesn’t exist.

Gave me the answer I told it won’t work in the initial prompt.

Scolded me for swearing at it.

This is what’s supposed to replace search engines?

You are that guy in the comic about a modern person blaming serfs for the persistence of feudalism.

Technically correct, the best kind of correct!

We have entire communities for unpopular opinions and shitposting, yet you chose to post here on ML?

Bolero would be pretty awful with lyrics.

It’s frustrating that the article deals treats the problem like the mistake was including Martin’s name in the data set, and muses that that part isn’t fixable.

Martin’s name is a natural feature of the data set, but when they should be taking about fixing the AI model to stop hallucinations or allow humans to correct them, it seems the only fix is to censor the incorrect AI response, which gives the implication that it was saying something true but salacious.

Most of these problems would go away if AI vendors exposed the reasoning chain instead of treating their bugs as trade secrets.

I used to pirate games because there was no legal digital distribution. The pirate version I could get faster and wouldn’t hassle me to put the right disk in the drive before I could play.

Then digital distribution got good, DRM got less obnoxious, and malware got meaner.

I used to pirate music for similar reasons.

I didn’t pirate video because the files were too large, and around the time bandwidth caught up, Netflix got good. Now digital video distribution is awful so I pirate video until they solve the fractured storefront problem.

Easy work for a digital archivist.

Music studios didn’t have those in the 1990’s.

Just following longstanding studio practice of putting the masters in a vault so you can forget about them.

They’re not used to the risks of bit rot.

Lemmy is too small to need this solution in search of a problem.

🤣

I’m laughing at your little meltdown.

Don’t post about crypto if you can’t tolerate mild mockery.

LOL cry harder

I was just going to laugh but yours works too.

Sorry, that’s not Kosher.

But compared to plastic from virgin fossil fuels?

We as a society are going to need memory cards.

What do you think they should be made out of?
