1. No way in heaven or earth I'm using my real name with this. 2. Alfred E. Neuman https://www.intheweights.com/p/alfred-e~2e~-neuman > is either "Mad magazine mascot" (11 responses), or "German-American writer, novelist, and playwright" (1 response, from Llama 3.2 1B, classed as a hallucination). Maybe the odd one out means the German writer Alfred Neumann? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Neumann_(writer) > 3.…

Apparently according to Gemini, I, the only person in the world with my name (unique first name + long complex last name) am a professional soccer player. Yeah, be careful with answers you get from AIs.

Well, have you ever tried to go pro? Maybe you should

1756, Salzburg, January 27th: Wolfgang Amadeus is born 1761: at the age of 5, Amadeus begins composing 1773: he writes his first piano concerto 1782: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart marries Constance Weber 1784: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart becomes a Freemason 1791: Mozart composes The Magic Flute On December 5th of that same year, Mozart dies

1985: Austrian rock singer Falco records Rock Me Amadeus!

I was hoping somebody would catch that!

There was a tribute song that came out later that I looked for but had trouble finding. In Falco's timeline you find that he died tragically in 1998.

There is a Country-Pop singer songwriter with my name. Also a 1940's running back for the Giants.

Then there is a third one which might be a hallucination (that one ironically appears to be me, and the other two are hallucinations).

It thinks I'm a German journalist and author focusing on data protection and privacy issues.

It got the job description wrong, but the issues correct. Not too bad. Should've said "asshole with an opinion".

Strangely enough even most tiny models can explain what some of my projects are, including correct historical details. The project websites have my name on it in the contact info and there's other sources connecting it as well. Maybe that gets scrubbed from training data?

It confused me with an academic with the same last name[0], so I guess I'm not notable enough to be in the weights.

[0] Which is uncommon to begin with, so that person might be the only one with it who is in the weights.
