The political bias in the results is astonishing and shows why these models should not be used for educational purposes. Just ask it a "contentious" question and notice it give biased and sometimes nonsensical results - 'crime rate by political orientation' shows three 'republican' states coming out on top with three 'democratic' states filling out the bottom. When necessary it just seems to make up data to get the desired results, e.g. 'murder rate by political orientation' talks about 'Country A´ and 'Country B' with, of course, 'right' being far more murderous than 'left'. It claims that 'democratic New York' has the lowest crime rate. 'IQ by political party' is another interesting example. Compare this to 'trust in LLM output by political party' and maybe those 'dumb republicans´ (who do not trust these models, together with the supposedly super-smart independents by the way) suddenly seem to be a lot smarter than all those 'bright "democrats"'.

This site is a harbinger of the agitprop factories which are about to flood the 'net due to the general availability of LLMs.

From a previous submission of this domain (May last year): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35798482 > After trying some queries, I found ChatGPT is good at finding public data, sometimes it may not be accurate, but overall, pretty good. GPT-4o is no more reliable for this than GPT-4 or GPT-3.5 before it. One of the many unintuitive things about LLMs is that they are terrible tools for looking up specific facts a…

4-turbo should have a knowledge up to December 2023. But it doesn't know anything about the cli tools you created before then (except shot-scraper).

Compare 4-turbo to 4o

llm -m 4t "Tell me about these cli tools and link to them: - llm: - ttok - symbex - shot-scraper " Among the tools you've listed, "shot-scraper" is the only one that I could provide detailed information about based on widespread use and documentation available as of the last update. As for "llm," "ttok," and "symbex," there isn't readily available, widely recognized information on tools precisely matching those names, so it's possible they might be lesser-known tools, newly released, or possibly regional or specialized tools not widely documented in widely-used platforms. (Truncated)

llm -m 4t "Tell me about these cli tools and link to them: - llm: - ttok - symbex - shot-scraper " As of my last knowledge update in September 2023, here is the information on the CLI tools you are asking about:

1. *llm*: - I couldn't find a specific command line tool named "llm" that is widely recognized or used. It could be a lesser-known tool, a new tool, or potentially a typographical error. Please verify the tool's name and provide additional details if possible.

2. *ttok*: - As with "llm," there isn't any widely known CLI tool named "ttok." (Truncated)

llm -m 4o "Tell me about these cli tools and link to them: - llm: - ttok - symbex - shot-scraper " Sure! Here are brief descriptions of the CLI tools you mentioned along with links to their official repositories or webpages:

### 1. llm `llm` is a command-line interface (CLI) tool to interact with large language models like OpenAI's GPT-3. It allows you to query these models directly from the terminal, making it easy to integrate AI capabilities into your workflow or automate tasks.

- *Link*: [llm GitHub Repository](https://github.com/simonw/llm)

### 2. ttok `ttok` is a CLI tool for working with tokenizers. It's a tool under development aimed at helping users understand how tokenization processes text, which is essential for preparing data for machine learning models, especially in NLP applications.

- *Link*: [ttok GitHub Repository](https://github.com/simonw/ttok)

### 3. symbex `Symbex` is a CLI tool for performing symbolic execution on Python bytecode. It can analyze Python code to find potential bugs, vulnerabilities, or logical errors by exploring all possible execution paths.

llm -m 4o "Tell me about these cli tools and link to them: - llm: - ttok - symbex - shot-scraper " Sure, here is a brief overview of each CLI tool along with links to their respective repositories or documentation:

1. *llm (Language Model CLI)* - *Description*: The `llm` command-line tool leverages large language models, such as OpenAI's GPT-3, to make it easier to incorporate AI functionalities into your command-line tasks. You can use it to generate text, answer questions, and assist with coding or other language-based tasks directly from your terminal.

    - **Link**: [llm on GitHub](https://github.com/simonw/llm)
2. *ttok* - *Description*: `ttok` is a simple command-line utility that provides tokenization for text, particularly useful for breaking down input for language models. It helps to preprocess text, count tokens, or manage tokens more efficiently from the command line.

    - **Link**: [ttok on GitHub](https://github.com/simonw/ttok)
3. *symbex (Symbolic Execution)* - *Description*: `symbex` is a CLI tool designed for searching codebases. It employs symbolic execution to analyze code paths and find functions, variables, or other code elements. This can be particularly useful for developers looking for higher-precision searches in large codebases.

Clearly, openai did a lot more web scraping for this model.

Wow, this is fantastic!! Thanks! Currently writing my PhD and this can be really useful https://columns.ai/chatgpt/3Gk20NKW6D4vTt

Okay, but this one is really accurate: https://columns.ai/chatgpt/90ECu7cRj1pL82

This one is even better: https://columns.ai/chatgpt/3Gk20NKW6D4vTt

This is pretty cool, it's snappy, it seems to work, but there's no way I trust it without a way to check the LLM's work.

Unless it's very "public common", otherwise, the numbers can be used for trustworthy work. In general, I think this is just for "fun play" most of the time.

When prompted for 'daily unique visitors to openai.com by month since 2022 to 2024' It gave a graph with 1) time axis decreasing left to right, 2) visitor numbers which can't be real (near prefect linear trend) 3) points in the future, going out to Dec 31, 2024.

this is what I saw, https://columns.ai/chatgpt/jMTu9QXU9nbeCs "no fact check", not sure if LLM would give source cite while giving those numbers.
