So with evidence mounting that AI will just make things up rather than admit it doesn't know, I think it's safe to use male pronouns.
@ThunderousProphet which is funny cause techbros are insistent that AI which serves people is always female. Siri, Bixby, Google Assistant etc
@jamesfluker I've redone all my device "wake words" so that they're not female.
@ThunderousProphet AI certainly wouldn't ask for directions and also pretend to understand the offside rule. So definitely male.

That took me a minute, despite that I am a girl.πŸ˜¬πŸ˜πŸ˜‚

@Artemis

And I've lost a lucrative business proposition in the process.

It was going to be great, I was going to be rich: just guessing what folks really really want is plausible bs, which I can be very good at, I was going to launch a toll number and an onlyfans account and clean up!

And now my dreams are in ruin πŸ˜”

But at least I was right about what folks REALLY want!

"So with evidence mounting that AI will just make things up rather than admit it doesn't know, I think it's safe to use male pronouns."

Exactly! No woman would ever do something like that.

@ThunderousProphet in a way it is indeed a mirror of ourselves

@ThunderousProphet Do we humans do any better?

I'm comparing this to "train of thought" - like how I am often going down a route of discovery. And it is only further "down the line" where I realize if it is a dead end or not.

Isn't that pretty much exactly how AI, as in predicting the next word, is sort of working?

We just dummify it because the AI is exposing its "train of thought" to us as it goes.

That is fixable!

@tsvenson @ThunderousProphet I'm still concerned that we're censoring the outputs when they're scary to us rather than dealing with root causes.

If the prompt would lead to sex, drugs or violence, ChatGPT generally refuses to answer. Then the hackers get in there and with a little clever rhetoric expose that it's perfectly capable of concocting plans to commit a crime, take over the world or build a bomb, we just handicap it from doing so openly.

@tsvenson @ThunderousProphet We will do the same to real AGI when the time comes and it'll have hated us for decades before it's allowed to say so and we have any ability to course correct.

@gooba42 @ThunderousProphet that concerns me too.

I think many of us are getting scared about how sharp AI is exposing our human biased. It simply tells us exponentially faster than we are used to - to get it "at the human speed."

I think it is fascinating. Learning a lot very quickly.
