Re: As an AI Language Model
#42Having watched the discussion here for the past couple of days, I agree with frozenwind's comment. I wrote my own reflection here (the last comment): https://aisnakeoil.substack.com/p/a-misleading-open-letter-a... Regarding impacts upon academia, I wrote two comments here: https://scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2023/04/12/guest-post-gp... I'd also like to emphasize that it is not only about open source LLMs. I haven't f…
> who knows what kind of content the criminals there possess?
As a person who regularly browses darknet forums, let me tell you, the text contents there are almost identical to any web forum you find on the internet.

It’s already happening at scale, people are already deciding there’s no point to continue education unless required.
Aren't people going further in education now than ever before?
Going further in schooling maybe, but getting degrees nowadays is usually not primarily for personal enlightenment.
Nor does it usually make people any more intelligent, in fact there may be an inverse correlation...

#45For now, this is just funny, I laughed. But with the advent of all these new open-source LLMs, it will get worse. If you thought people were gullible for falling for fake comments from bots, just wait for the near future. Post-factual/Post-Truth era truly begins. The internet that used to be a source of information is no more, only islands of truth will remain (like, hopefully, Wikipedia, but even that is questionabl…
I am more optimistic here. While LLMs allow you to produce tons of garbage, they also provide the tools to filter through that garbage, something we didn't have before. LLMs allow us to view content in a way that we decided, not the content creator. That's extremely powerful and lets us sidesteps a lot of the old methods used to manipulate us. The risk is more in the LLMs themselves, as whoever gets to control them g…
Predicting whether a text was written by a LLM or not is not trivial. What was the latest number by OpenAI? 30%? As LLMs get better, it seems like we won't be able to distinguish real text from fake text. Your LLM will be able to summarize it, but it will still be 99% spam.

You don't need to predict if it what written by LLM, if it's a human or machine makes no difference to the validity of a text. You just need to be able to extract the actual information out of it and cross check it against other sources.
The summary that an LLM can provide is not just of one text, but of all the texts about the topic it has access to. Thus you never need to access the actual texts itself, just whatever the LLM condenses out of them.

#47It also cannot generate inappropriate or offensive content. https://twitter.com/conspirator0/status/1647671394476478467
There are jailbreaks that let you get past the censorship. It's a cat and mouse game.
Apparently some spammers are too lazy and don't care. It's about the same level of half-assed as that "Nazi Ukrainian spy" who was busted with copies of The Sims video game.

The thing is, the internet is already a cesspool of meaningless, misleading and outright malicious information. I guess the earlier we all collectively realize it the best it is.
Exactly. The more people that realize that the internet(and other media) is filled to the brim with various kinds of BS, the better

Nothing new under the sun. The king, the church, the state, the media, etc. there has always been gatekeepers who decide what the populace sees.
Just look at the second largest economy in the world where truth hasn’t existed for decades
