Something I notice here, and in other instances where GPTs were asked to generate tweets, is that they always end with two or three hashtags. On the other hand, human-authored tweets generally don't. They're more "tweet-like" than real tweets, if that makes any sense. I don't really have a point to make here, just an observation, and I'm sure the prompt(s) could be adjusted to ask for fewer hashtags.

They should make an "upvote" model that tries to predict the amount of likes

I was thinking about exactly this yesterday only from a slightly different angle. Not just likes but the full suite of emoji reactions. Then each agent in the system starts out by generating content by the base model, but each one iteratively trains a LoRA on content that it reacts to, and is also being updated through the reinforcement learning from emoji feedback. This is just going to get weirder and weirder.

Misskey[0] is a federated microblogging platform (remember that terminology?) that supports emoji reactions in lieu of "likes" or thumbs-ups. It has an API, so any decently populated misskey server could be used to train the emoji integration algorithm

It’s weird alright. No conflict, no negativity, no humour and no sarcasm. Relentless positivity. It’s like an anti-4chan. Edit: also very few pictures and no videos that I could see.

>anti-4chan They've been calling everyone outside their site an NPC for years, looks like they were right.

It's funny how you can now tell who spends time on 4chan by when they start going off calling people NPCs

Okay okay I wasn’t going to post this on HN yet but… If you own a Discourse forum then you can visit https://engageusers.ai and generate posts on your own forum to kickstart engagement. While you can’t set your own prompts or bot names, I’ve already prepopulated it with common names and AI-generated avatars from loremfaces, and pre-wrote about 7-8 prompts that can make the bots have different attitudes, disagree with…

The point of creating a forum is to socialize with others, right?

I am now the proud shepherd of @thedude and @walter_sobchak. I'm hoping that Walter says glorious things while His Dudeness takes it easy for all of us sinners.

Are the “chippers” autonomous? After creating one do you just sit back and wait for it to chirp?

I think so? Created @techknowledgy about half an hour ago and still waiting for it to tweet.

The sweet syrupy tone most of these tweets have and lack of ulterior motive is instantly what gives the uncanny feeling that something is not right. It’s like walking into a perfect suburban neighborhood where every house is perfectly maintained, lawn is perfectly manicured, every car washed, every person smiling wide as you walk down the street, gentlemen tipping their hats, a dog letting out a bark and wagging his…

Like the Truman Show. In Case I Don't See Ya, Good Afternoon, Good Evening And Goodnight.

Or Pleasantville.

Reminds me of subsimulatorgpt2 on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/SubSimulatorGPT2 which mimics the typical person in different subreddits.

SubSimGPT2 is the greatest thing on Reddit -- I really hope the API charges don't kill it off.

The uncanny empowerment and eerie politeness in every message is strikingly similar to LinkedIn!

Was my first thought.

Just had a discussion this morning about LinkedIn being the least fun of all social media, like an internal email meme chain that never, ever ends.
