    The ongoing model anchoring/grounding issue likely affects all GPT-4 checkpoints/variants, but is most prominent with the latest "gpt-4-turbo-2024-04-09" variant due to its most re…

    I think there's a bigger underlying problem with the current GPT-4 model(s) atm: Go to the API Playground and ask the model what is its current cutoff date. For example, in its cha…

    Asking this here too: why isn't there an automated A/B or diff match for the tarball contents to match the repo, auto-flag with a warning if that happens? Am I missing something he…

    Been saying this the whole day now, GitHub really needs an automated diff / A/B check-up on tarballs against the actual repo, flag everything with at least a warning (+[insert addi…

    Comment #39875521

    I'm wondering is there i.e. no way to add an automated flagging system that A/B / `diff` checks the tarball contents against the repo's files and warns if there's a mismatch? This …

    In the future: automated `diff` or any other A/B check to see whether or not the tarball matches the source repo (if not, auto-flag with a mismatch warning attribute), is that feas…

    I tested Gemini the other week after the 1.5 update rolled out, by running some AI ethics related papers through it and it started inserting and rambling about its own opinions on …

    Exactly, and I agree that this is where OpenAI too is still struggling with their arbitrary content policy-related flagging based on the user's input, even when nothing "bad" is be…

    One thing that could be mentioned is how OpenAI's content policy flagging system is still unbearably overzealous on the ChatGPT platform (both w/ GPT-3.5 and GPT-4), punishing the …

    It's broken on so many levels at the moment that it's unreal. Try asking Bard what model is it based on right now and you'll get all sorts of imaginable answers from PaLM2 to LaMDA…

    Sure. But, you could auto-encrypt your ~/.bash_history if you're concerned about it being a problem and might need it for backtracing any issues etc?
