Are my two options to brainwash people into thinking goodly or badly of people of color? Do any other subjects and concerns exist in this world other than people of color or is that kind of a _selective_ bullshitting?

No, there are also "concerning" subjects and concerns in this world, like false medical information, but apparently people don't suddenly write thousand-words screeds against google when that crops up (except when it was about hydroxychloriquine - but of course it is not really about "ethics in evidence-based medicine"...)

Is it possible that people might have genuine concerns (no limp wristed scare quotes) who don't watch Fox News?

Hypothetically, if Google was somehow taken over by Elon Musk, you would maintain this attitude? =)

GPT was good. ChatGPT ruined it. It is better and more powerful to write prompts such that the continuation is what you want, than ask questions as if it understood. Now we don't even get log probs, one of the most powerful features to evaluate the output of the models.

Raw GPT is a good tool but there’s a reason it didn’t get 100 million users. If you made unbiased Gemini and asked it for images of German soldiers it probably wouldn’t output an image at all, and if it did it would probably be porn.

Another feature of the non-chat model.

I feel like I just said how "asking for" things is a bad way of prompting AI.
