You do know it can't reason and literally makes shit up approximately 50% of the time? Be quicker to toss a coin!
Actually, given the aforementioned prompts, its quite good at discerning flaws in my arguments and logical contradictions.
I've also trained its memory not to make assumptions when it comes to contentious topics, and to always source reputable articles and link them to replies.
Yeah this is my experience as well.
People you're replying to need to stop with the "gippity is bad" nonsense, it's actually a fucking miracle of technology. You can criticize the carbon footprint of the corpos and the for-profit nature of the endeavour that was ultimately created through taxpayer-funded research at public institutions without shooting yourself in the foot by claiming what is very evidently not true.
In fact, if you haven't found a use for a gippity type chatbot thing, it speaks a lot more about you and the fact you probably don't do anything that complicated in your life where this would give you genuine value.
The article in OP also demonstrates how it could be used by the deranged/unintelligent for bad as well, so maybe it's like a dunning-kruger curve.
Granted, it is flakey unless you've configured it not to be a shit cunt. Before I manually set these prompts and memory references, it talked shit all the time.
God that’s arrogant.
I know, and that's fair. But am I wrong? That's what matters more than anything else.
I make a lot of bold statements on this account, but I never do so lightly or unthinkingly.
Given your prompts, maybe you are good at discerning flaws and analysing your own arguments too
I'm good enough at noticing my own flaws, as not to be arrogant enough to believe I'm immune from making mistakes :p
