The above comment is an example of this getting waved away.

Yeah, no. This comment alone would go against any government NDA - and this user is just some random person who, going by their comment history, most certainly has no inside knowledge of anything.

I sometimes wonder what needs to happen to people in order for them to confidently write nonsense like this.

It seems like the entire industry is in pure panic about AI, not just Google. Everyone hopes that LLMs will end years of homeopathic growth through iteration of long-existing technology, which is why it attracts tons of venture capital.

Google, which sits where IBM was decades ago, is too big, too corporate and too slow now, so they needed years to react to this fad. When they finally did, all they were able to come up with was a rushed equivalent of existing LLMs that suffers from all of the same problems.

I agree. The only application that is fine for this in my opinion is using it solely for entertainment, as a toy.

The problem is of course that everyone and their mothers are pouring billions into what clearly should only be used as a toy, expecting it to perform miracles it currently can not and might never be able to pull off.

Its not chatgpt that’s just default config u can use the API endpoint to point to any chatgpt api compatible llm.

Since the issue with hallucinations is shared by all LLMs, not just ChatGPT, this doesn't change anything.

Are you seriously trying to push your ChatGPT "tool" in response to an article about language models like this one having substantial issues? "Not guaranteed" - yes, obviously, that's the point of the article - and from a quick look at your code, I don't see how this nonsense addresses any of that.

Because it would meant hat the CCP would have to retreat out of this particular part of life and give up a method of control and oppression, which a totalitarian party could never do.

But what about...

Imagine the Papal States never dissolving and becoming a nuclear-armed power in the 20th century, using the threat of nuclear annihilation to maintain their independence and increase their global influence.

That would be an interesting alternative history scenario.

He didn't have the resources and determination of the Chinese state behind him.
