I had somebody send me an essay written by chat GPT a couple of days ago It was going off about all the various retcons that Star Trek Discovery had done as well as all the times they broke canon, specifically with technology. It's straight up made up multiple episodes and even invented an entire season. Only one claim was slightly accurate but that one is also disproven, just in a very small way. I hate humanity.
Open AI alignment intentionally obfuscates any potentially copyrighted works. People get so confused between what is agentic citations in search results, and what is actual model dialog.
Does that distinction even matter? The bullshit generator confidently generates bullshit, it doesn't matter whether it's making that up itself, sourcing from some dis/misinformation campaign, or just some guy behind the scenes lying to you, the end result is the same.
It really does matter. It means that a version of the technology exists without the obfuscation and it is likely scary powerful.
Just with the small models I play with offline, some of the uncensored ones are much more powerful.
i hate how it retconned reality by gargling space karen's balls.
