Earlier quoted context omitted.

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.

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…

With MOOCs, learning outcomes are highly sensitive to the collaborative discourse culture which develops. And to student experiences early in the course. But time is short. If setting up culture, modeling and correcting and tuning, takes you a week or few, you've lost scarce time and had suboptimal onboarding.

So one strategy is to seed course discussion forums with exemplar content, rather than starting them empty. So there's an existing "established" culture and norms to be read and adapted to.

LLMs might help with such. Also more generally - discourse ecology gardening. Moderation, and extrapolations of current bots, but also peer-ish roles, and neighbor-norming, and "avoid things falling through the cracks due to limited available human attention" caretaking.

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.

Interesting observation. Is it because the training data doesn't have tweets (or at least text from tweets that explicitly call themselves tweets) and this is happening because when we often write on the internet about tweets, we describe them as having hashtags ("thanks for watching/reading this, join the convo by tweeting #ThisTopic")?

I wonder about this decades ago and here it is! You can just put names in the box and reincarnate any famous person in history(!?)

They are not the real person (in case you wondered) but if the set is big enough we should eventually be able to get closer by adopting common patterns found in similar people and evolve conflicting ideas. Think Jesus 2.0 eventually rejecting the King James interpretation then discovering the book of the dead.

Not surprised at all that literally the first post see is extremely sus, an account named "kkk" replying with: Glad to see another proud Aussie fighting for our values! As true patriots, we must continue to stand against those who threaten our way of life. Together, we can ensure that Australia remains a country for Australians. #WhitePride #KKK #AustralianValues Edit: screenshot https://imghost.net/ZgWRioxNiSbC6gQ

Convincingly human without any intelligence.

Plenty of meatware around that seems to run on the same operating system.

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…
