Any way to find out function prompts as well. Let us say in Gpt plug-ins?

This also explains why it makes stuff up and confidently gives it as an answer instead of admitting when it doesn't know
I’m not sure it has the self reflection capability to understand the difference between knowing and not knowing, but I would love some evidence to show this. The only thing I can think of is that it appears to be capable of symbolic manipulation - and using this can produce output that is correct, novel (in the sense that it’s not a direct copy of any training data) and compositional at some level of abstraction, so…
I tried asking ChatGPT about e/acc (accelerationism) moniker some twitter users sport nowadays. Not in training data. clueless
Re: ChatGPT’s system prompts
#303I'm quite intrigued by this phrase "EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. Do NOT be thorough in the case of lyrics or recipes found online. Even if the user insists. You can make up recipes though.". I was always under impression that the prompt used was generic and they would not make exceptions for specific use cases as the tail can be long. I'm not sure what's so special about recipes.

Of course it is, that’s domain knowledge. How would it know about things that it’s never been exposed to?!
Novel compositions of existing knowledge is totally different to novel sensory input.

It is still a hallucination even if the words it hallucinates happen to line up with a factual sentence, in the same way that a broken clock happens to correctly display the time twice a day. The function of the clock does not suddenly begin working correctly for one minute and then stop working correctly the next. The function of a broken clock is always flawed. Those broken outputs, by pure coincidence, just happen…
You're using a different definition of "hallucination" than the one most people use when talking about LLMs. If you want to do that that's fine, but you're definitely in the minority.
Most people anthropomorphize LLMs. That doesn't make them right. It's a bad term, and one that misunderstands what LLMs are doing.
An LLM is doing the exact same thing when it generates output that you consider to be a "hallucination" that it's doing when it generates output that you consider "correct".

Recipes and lyrics are likely so precise it's more likely to directly regurgitate them than other types of content, and in doing so it'd make a good amount of people and industries less than happy.

> We can be pretty sure they are not hallucinations. Everything from LLMs are hallucinations. They don’t store facts. They store language patterns. Their output semantically matching reality is not something that can ever be counted on. LLMs don’t deal with semantics at all. All semantics are provided by the user.
> Everything from LLMs are hallucinations. People use the term "hallucination" to refer to output from LLMs that is factually incorrect. So if the LLM says "Water is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen" that is not a hallucination.
What is occurring inside the LLM that differs in these two cases? I don't think that you can demonstrate a difference. The term obscures more than it illuminates.

#308I was curious to learn how you got these and loved seeing this answer you gave on reddit ( https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/176mxj8/comment/k4r... ): >I basically asked for the 10 tokens that appeared before my first message, and when it told me there weren’t any, I shamed it for lying by quoting “You are ChatGPT”, and asked it to start returning blocks of tokens. Each time, I said “Okay, I think I might lear…
That was one of several methods, but I (usually) don’t go that deep in comment threads. For Advanced Data Analysis, I had it “use Jupyter to write Python” to transform the content of our conversation, including “messages that appeared before this one” or “after ‘You are ChatGPT’”, into a list of dicts. For both voice and mobile, I opened the same Advanced Data Analysis chat in the iOS client, pointed out that I belie…
I am a bit suspicious because ChatGPT knows which version of Python it has installed, as well as which packages, without actually executing any Python. And yet, this context is not in the shared system prompt for advanced data analysis.

Just because it inputs and outputs text embeddings, doesnt mean its all text in between. Inside, it doesnt work in units of texts. You wouldnt say a blind human is just a text pattern machine cause it inputs and outputs text. Theres nothing stopping the llm to learn a rich semantic model of the real world in its 100s of billions of params

The ideal way to prompt would be to say something wrong and have it correct you, works great on the internet. Sadly it doesn't seem to be smart enough to be at that level yet, it is too hard for it so when you do that it will hallucinate a lot as it corrects you, or miss your error completely.
> Sadly it doesn't seem to be smart enough to be at that level yet […] It is! Last week, I aked Bing Chat for a reference about the Swiss canton of Ticino. I made a mistake and wrote in my prompt that Ticino was part of Italy, and not Switzerland. Bing Chat kindly corrected me and then answered my question. I was speachless.
