I always speak politely to LLMs, and no, it isn’t just because I want to be on their good side when the AI goes skynet and decides to mercy kill us all.
Pay the fuckin electricity. It’s not my problem it costs them money. It’s their problem. Cry me a river
Maybe if being polite costs a bunch of money, the inefficiencies are the problem, not the manners.
They created the AI model, they perpetuated this. if they reach bankruptcy, it’s their problem.
Well saying please oft results in better answers. So nope not gonna drop it.
But I won’t say thanks often. Only when I follow up with a question.
I say please and thank you when writing to LLMs, not because I think they care or will remember or to anthropomorphize them, but because I don’t want to develop bad habits. I don’t want all my writing and conversations with actual humans to become curt and transactional because I forget that they are human and talk to them like an LLM.
This 100%. I already have to remember to change my voice between work and personal communication, I don’t need yet another personality to accidentally send to someone that could fuck up my entire life.
He’s probably lying through his teeth. Maybe they were doing this at the initial stage of the release, but can’t possibly be doing this any longer and he’s making a scene to keep up the hype. Make haters feel like they achieved something.
You need to learn that these people aren’t playing 4d chess, they’re just dudes.
Some might say they’re just bros.
It doesn’t matter what you put in, as far as I know, they need to run the entire conversation through the neural network for every word generated.
if (text == “Thank you”) print(“You’re welcome”)
What about Thank you! or thank you or THANK YOU or thanks or tahnk you or thank yuo or thabk you or thanks you or multumesc or mulțumesc
You now need to train an AI to detect if a message is saying thanks or not
if (text === "Thank you") print("You're welcome")Hello ChatGPT, how to say thank you in Japanese?
You are welcome!
Just another viewpoint on this- millions of dollars in electrical bills is also carbon in the air for every kWh wasted. Perhaps this should be a condemnation of LLMs and their insane power usage but if we’re stuck with that at least for now there’s no reason to pump more carbon in the air out of spite.
If nothing else we should move all the current (over)investment in AI companies into carbon-free energy production for a few years. The fact that we essentially have coal-powered AI (along with other fossil fuels) is ridiculously stupid and silly - and way less steampunk than it sounds like it should be.
Oh, please! I don’t even own a car, so my carbon footprint is practically nonexistent. If you’re worried about emissions, maybe direct your energy toward the gas-guzzlers out there instead of a harmless chat with an AI.
Is this ironic?
The comment itself? Yep. It’s even written by AI. The intent in pointing out hypocrisy? Nope. That’s serious.
Masterful bait. You could even be described as a wanker <3
A wanker with a smaller carbon footprint than you <3
This movie is amazing and everyone should watch it.
The answer to the obvious next question being: A Scanner Darkly

That ought to get ChatGPT going on a tangent.

I fell like I should change my default invoicing letter. Much better than the default QuickBooks one.
Go to the root URL and have a blast. It’s an AI writer that uses all sorts of different styles. Might just funnel through GPT, I don’t even know. But it’s a blast.
I will continue to be polite, and will have a clear conscience when our machine overlords come for us
I told it to save my pleasantries on file and apply them as it sees fit. That way I am being exactly as polite as it wants me to me.
The point of pleasantries is the effort made, you’re going to get extra purged
I also use Ouija board rules with AI.
You say please, you say thank you, and when you’re done talking, you say goodbye.
And, generally, you try to interact with it as little as possible.
Sounds like a good idea, treating ai like someone that can harm you because of past interactions. Corp is storing everything that I tell ai anyways, what’s holding then from training it to “personalize” my experience by the same time they power a real, physical army?
$prompt = str_replace('please', '', $prompt); $prompt = str_replace('thank you', '', $prompt);You’re welcome
Fellow PHP enjoyer. Splendid.
Please use spoiler tags for random PHP snippets. I’d rather not be casually traumatised
Would you have preferred an awk script?
Hell yes. At least awk makes sense if you stare at it long enough. A typical PHP codebase though? No thanks
Sorry :-/
for your service.
He probably shouldnt have said that… :)
Connect two chatgpts in a voice chat and leave it running?
I’ve not tried this, but I’ve heard that once they realise they’re two AIs talking to each other, they switch to some R2D2-style language which is quicker and more efficient than English…
I think you are referring to a POC that someone did, it isn’t actually being used
I’m not going to be a dick to the basilisk. Costing money is a bonus.
