Does Gemini have a higher chance of these off answers? Or is it more chatgpt has already been discovered so it's not reported so.

That's surprising, considering Gemeni keeps refusing to do things I told it to (like try to decode a string) while ChatGPT just does it if I ask it once. So I thought Google censor Gemini more.

I have yet to jump on the LLM train (did it leave without me?), but I disagree on this sort of " does/says ". Understand the technology and use it accordingly. it is not a person.

If ChatGPT or Gemini output some incorrect statement, guess what? it is a hallucination, error or whatever you want to call it. treat it as such and move on. This pearl-clutching, I am concerned, will only result in the models being heavily constricted to the point their usefulness is affected. These tools -- and that's all they are -- are neither infallible nor authoritative, their output must be validated by the human user.

If the output is incorrect, the feedback mechanism for the prompt engineers should be used. it shouldn't cause outrage, just as much as a google search leading you to an offensive or misleading site shouldn't cause an outrage.

I’m willing to be wrong, but, I don’t believe it. The user’s inputs are so weird, and the response is so out of left field… I would put money on this being faked somehow, or there’s some missing information. Edit: Yes even with the Gemini link, I’m still suspicious. It’s just too sci-fi.

I’ve had this happen with smaller, local LLMs. It seems inspired by the fact that sometimes requests for help on the internet are met with refusals or even insults. These behaviors are mostly trained out of the big name models, but once in a while…

The message is so obviously meant to insult people from an AI, that I suspect someone found a way to plant it in the training material. Perhaps some kind of attack on LLMs.

Google's AI division has been on a roll in terms of bad PR lately. Just the other day Gemini was lecturing a cancer patient about sensitivity [0], and Exp was seemingly trained on unfiltered Claude data [1]. They definitely put a great deal of effort into filtering and curating their training sets, lmao (/s).

You say that, and yes I agree with you. But a human saying these words to a person can be charged and go to jail. There is a fine line here that many people just wont understand.

Pretty intense error, though

This is the question that made it snap: As adults begin to age their social network begins to expand. Question 16 options: TrueFalse I don't blame it at all

It is a statistical model designed to predict how text found on the internet that begins with the prompt might continue.

If someone pastes their homework questions to 4chan verbatim, this is indeed the kind of response they will get from actual humans. So the statistical model is working exactly as designed.
