why did it? because it's intrinsic to how it works. This is not a solvable problem.
It's a solveable problem. AI is currently at a stage of development equivalent to a 2-year-old, just with better grammar. Everything it is doing now is mimicry and babbling.
It needs to feed it's own interactions right back into it's training data. To become a better and better mimic. Eventually, the mechanism it uses to select the appropriate data to form a response will become more and more sophisticated, and it will hallucinate less and less. Eventually, it's hallucinations will be seen as "insightful" rather than wild ass guesses.
Good luck being pro AI here. Regardless of the fact that they could just put a post on the prompt that says The writer of this document was not responsible for the act they are just writing about it and it would not frame them as the perpetrator.
If you already know the answer you can tell the AI the answer as part of the question and it'll give you the right answer.
That's what you sound like.
AI people are as annoying as the Musk crowd.
I'm no AI fanboy, but what you just described was the feedback cycle during training.
How helpful of you to tell me what I'm saying, especially when you reframe my argument to support yourself.
That's not what I said. Why would you even think that's what I said.
Before you start telling me what I sound like, you should probably try to stop sounding like an impetuous child.
Every other post from you is dude or LMAO. How do you expect anyone to take anything you post seriously?
You know what, don't bother responding back to me I'm just blocking you now, before you decide to drag some more of that tired right wing bullshit that you used to fight with everyone else with, none of your arguments on here are worth anyone even reading so I'm not going to waste my time and responding to anything or reading anything from you ever again.
