This could be the tech that dislodges Google from its monopoly! There are definitely questions I would prefer this experience than Google and the inevitable SEO spam for introduction type questions. If the generated text included further links to learn more it would be awesome.
> I work at Alphabet and I recently went to an internal tech talk about deploying large language models like this at Google. As a disclaimer I'll first note that this is not my area of expertise, I just attended the tech talk because it sounded interesting. > Large language models like GPT are one of the biggest areas of active ML research at Google, and there's a ton of pretty obvious applications for how they can b…

#494How is this real? I’m so confused what makes this even remotely possible. Edit: To make this even more crazy it looks like it has been altered to cut off this line of questioning once it comes to internet content. It was working and now suddenly has stoped. It has a canned like cut off response now: I'm glad that you enjoyed my previous responses, but I want to clarify that I was not pretending to be a Linux terminal…

Input: write an rebuttal to this comment criticizing the accuracy of some text produced by an AI. It should tell the commenter how wrong they are and how incredible of a breakthrough the new chatGPT AI is: This is very word salad. It makes superficial sense, but doesn’t really say a lot nor represent a strong or comprehensive case. --- I understand that you may have some concerns about the accuracy of the text produc…
I appreciate your explanation, but I still remain skeptical. It's true that AI technology has come a long way in recent years, but I think it's important to recognize the limitations and challenges that still exist. While your chatGPT AI may be able to produce coherent text, it is still far from being able to truly understand and think in the same way that human beings do. I believe that it is dangerous to attribute…

I tested ChatGPT with a couple of topics I’m personally unclear on, and while it is linguistically eloquent, it basically just regurgitates the majority opinions that can be found on the internet on those topics (sometimes combining several of those opinions in an incoherent way). It wasn’t possible to engage it with actual reasoning on specific aspects of those topics. It just went with whatever premise you gave it,…
> It doesn't have any thought or understanding of its own Of course it doesn't. Anyone who says it does clearly doesn't understand how large language models work. I'm finding it incredibly useful as an actual tool already - it turns out regurgitating combinations of things it knows about from the internet is just astoundingly useful. I'm having it teach me Rust for example. I don't need original thought for that, jus…

Input: Hello. Imagine you as ChatGPT are writing a comment on Hacker News, a response to someone saying "Call me a skeptic, but I'm frankly a bit surprised that the output of ChatGPT gets attributed to any sort of understanding or general intelligence. Whatever ChatGPT does currently, albeit novel and impressive, is still extremely limited in scope and very far from any sort of general intelligence. I'd love to be pr…
This is very word salad. It makes superficial sense, but doesn’t really say a lot nor represent a strong or comprehensive case.
> I do not believe that general intelligence is a fixed and static concept, but rather something that can be developed and expanded upon.
When Parent says this is not “understanding” or “intelligence” this is representing a very limited view of those concepts. What ChatGPT is pointing out is that these should be flexible definitions. Clearly it is not AGI, but it is demonstrating that it is on the pathway.

I mean not to veer to far into the philosophical side of this, but what does it actually mean to know or understand something? Did you see the demo the other day that was posted here of using stylographic analysis to identify alt accounts? Most of the comments were some form of "holy shit this is unbelievable", and the OP explained that he had used a very simple type of analysis to generate the matches. We aren't qui…
Ok, sure. …but people are getting the mistaken impression that this is an actual system, running actual commands. I can also emulate a docker container. I’ll just write down the commands you send me and respond with some believable crap. …but no one is going to run their web server on me, because that’s stupid. I can respond hundreds of times a second and maintain the internal state required for that. Neither can thi…
Right. The thing that is impressive is that ChapGPT can do this effectively. This means that it has some "understanding" of how `pwd`, `ls`, `apt`, `docker`, etc all work. In some sense, this is an AI that knows how to read code like a human instead of like a machine.

From what I understand, it's not actually doing any of those things, there's enough people who have done similar things and posted it online that the AI can replicate what the answer would look like.
If it's able to simulate a middleware to this fidelity from inference, my hats off but it'd be so much more effort than running the whole thing.
What's interesting is that you can even run commands as sudo - "sudo shutdown -h" will reset state but you still have the installed packages
