Researchers describe how to tell if ChatGPT is confabulating

Finding out whether the AI is uncertain about facts or phrasing is the key.

https://arstechnica.com/ai/2024/06/researchers-describe-how-to-tell-if-chatgpt-is-confabulating/

This is not what you think. It's about how the software can tell that it's probably screwed up. This article won't help an LLM user tell if she's being bullshitted by the LLM.

Also, this reminds me of the old joke...

Q: How can tell that a politician is lying?
A: His lips move.

The LLM guesses that its answers are bullshit when some of its answers contradict others. So this is a breakthrough? How was this not obvious from the beginning?

This means it's not a great idea to simply force the LLM to return "I don't know" ...

A better answer would be "I don't know enough, and I'm not intelligent enough to confidently give you an answer. I'm basically just glorified autocomplete."

Sutskever "Cracked" Team

Safe Superintelligence, Inc. seeks to safely build AI far beyond human capability.

https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2024/06/ex-openai-star-sutskever-shoots-for-superintelligent-ai-with-new-company/

"We will do it through revolutionary breakthroughs produced by a small cracked team."

Now I think he probably meant a "crack" team.

The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48
Crack \Crack\, a.
Of superior excellence; having qualities to be boasted of;
as, a crack shot. [Colloq.]
[1913 Webster]

But maybe that was a Freudian slip. This all seems like crackpot nonsense to me.

OpenAI is currently seeking to create AGI, or artificial general intelligence, which would hypothetically match human intelligence at performing a wide variety of tasks without specific training.

Psychologists gave up on the idea of "general intelligence" decades ago. People have mental skills--many of them. There is no "general intelligence." That's why no one pays any attention to "intelligence" tests anymore.

What the hell is meant by "superintelligence" anyway? Computers can be programmed to do some things better than humans. For example, they can usually calculate much, much more quickly than human beings. Is this "superintelligence"?

It's time to admit that there is no artificial intelligence because there is no intelligence. There are only many different mental abilities. The word intelligence is not useful. Hence, the term "artificial intelligence" is also useless.

Scammers like Sutskever should be ignored. They certainly shouldn't be given money.

The Future of Sex Porn 3D Games in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

In recent years, there has been a significant rise in the development and popularity of adult 3D games, particularly those that utilize artificial intelligence (AI) technology. These games offer users a level of immersion and customization that was previously unimaginable, allowing them to explore their fantasies in a safe and consensual virtual environment. But what does the future hold for the intersection of sex, porn, and AI in 3D gaming?

Machine learning algorithms

One of the most exciting developments in this field is the use of machine learning algorithms to create more realistic and dynamic virtual characters. These AI-powered characters can learn and adapt to the user's preferences and behavior, providing a more personalized and engaging experience. They can also engage in more natural and realistic conversations, adding a layer of immersion to the game.

Realm of erotic anime graphics content generation

Another area where AI is making a big impact on 3D porn games is in the realm of erotic anime graphics content generation. This technology allows developers to create an infinite variety of virtual environments, scenarios, and sexy fantasy characters on the fly, ensuring that the user never runs out of new and exciting stimulating things to discover.

This also opens up the possibility of creating fully customizable and user-generated content, giving users even more control over their virtual experiences.

The stigma associated with adult gaming is fading away

In addition to these technical advancements, there is also a growing societal acceptance and normalization of adult 3D sex games. Many people view these games as a healthy and consensual way to explore their fantasies and desires, and the stigma once associated with adult gaming is gradually fading away.

This increased acceptance is likely to drive further growth and innovation in the industry, as developers can create more diverse and inclusive games that cater to a wider range of audiences.

Sex 3D Games need to be created and used responsibly and ethically

3D adult porn games can be very extreme and violent and with the increasing capabilities of AI and 3D technology, it raises some ethical concerns. The consent of virtual characters in the game, privacy concerns of users, and the impact on real-world relationships.

It's crucial that the industry addresses these concerns and develops best practices to ensure that these games are created and used responsibly and ethically.

Conclusion

The future of sex, porn, and AI in 3D gaming is bright, with many exciting developments on the horizon. From AI-powered virtual characters to procedurally generated environments, the possibilities are seemingly endless.

And as societal attitudes continue to shift and technology becomes more advanced, we can expect to see even more innovative and immersive erotic experiences in the years to come. However, it is important to approach this topic with caution, ensuring that these games are developed and used responsibly and ethically.

More Fun with AI

News app makes up news and credits it to made up people.

https://www.reuters.com/technology/top-news-app-us-has-chinese-origins-writes-fiction-with-help-ai-2024-06-05/

Another example of an "AI" pulling shit out of its anus.

LONDON, June 5 (Reuters) - Last Christmas Eve, NewsBreak, opens new tab, a free app with roots in China that is the most downloaded news app in the United States, published an alarming piece about a small town shooting. It was headlined "Christmas Day Tragedy Strikes Bridgeton, New Jersey Amid Rising Gun Violence in Small Towns."\
\
The problem was, no such shooting took place. The Bridgeton, New Jersey police department posted a statement on Facebook on December 27 dismissing the article - produced using AI technology - as "entirely false".\
\
"Nothing even similar to this story occurred on or around Christmas, or even in recent memory for the area they described," the post said. "It seems this 'news' outlet's AI writes fiction they have no problem publishing to readers."

A Right to Warn about Advanced Artificial Intelligence

https://righttowarn.ai/


So long as there is no effective government oversight of these corporations, current and former employees are among the few people who can hold them accountable to the public. Yet broad confidentiality agreements block us from voicing our concerns, except to the very companies that may be failing to address these issues. Ordinary whistleblower protections are insufficient because they focus on illegal activity, whereas many of the risks we are concerned about are not yet regulated.

...

We therefore call upon advanced AI companies to commit to these principles:

  1. That the company will not enter into or enforce any agreement that prohibits “disparagement” or criticism of the company for risk-related concerns, nor retaliate for risk-related criticism by hindering any vested economic benefit;
  2. That the company will facilitate a verifiably anonymous process for current and former employees to raise risk-related concerns to the company’s board, to regulators, and to an appropriate independent organization with relevant expertise;
  3. That the company will support a culture of open criticism and allow its current and former employees to raise risk-related concerns about its technologies to the public, to the company’s board, to regulators, or to an appropriate independent organization with relevant expertise, so long as trade secrets and other intellectual property interests are appropriately protected;
  4. That the company will not retaliate against current and former employees who publicly share risk-related confidential information after other processes have failed. We accept that any effort to report risk-related concerns should avoid releasing confidential information unnecessarily. Therefore, once an adequate process for anonymously raising concerns to the company’s board, to regulators, and to an appropriate independent organization with relevant expertise exists, we accept that concerns should be raised through such a process initially. However, as long as such a process does not exist, current and former employees should retain their freedom to report their concerns to the public.

Air Canada must honor refund policy invented by airline’s chatbot

Air Canada appears to have quietly killed its costly chatbot support.

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/02/air-canada-must-honor-refund-policy-invented-by-airlines-chatbot/

After months of resisting, Air Canada was forced to give a partial refund to a grieving passenger who was misled by an airline chatbot inaccurately explaining the airline's bereavement travel policy.

Ha ha!

Ha ha!

The myth of AI lives on. Wake up people. It may be artificial, but it is definitely not intelligent.

I assure you, an AI didn't write a terrible "George Carlin" routine

by Cory Doctorow

https://pluralistic.net/2024/01/29/pay-no-attention/#to-the-little-man-behind-the-curtain

That's four reasons for AI hype:\
\
I. to win investors and customers;\
\
II. to cover customers' and users' embarrassment when the AI doesn't perform;\
\
III. AI dreamers so high on their own supply that they can't tell truth from fantasy;\
\
IV. A business-model for doomsayers who form an unholy alliance with AI companies by parroting their silliest hype in warning form.\
\
But there's a fifth motivation for criti-hype: to simplify otherwise tedious and complex situations. As Jamie Zawinski writes, this is the motivation behind the obvious lie that the "autonomous cars" on the streets of San Francisco have no driver:\

Is there a middle ground between pay and get support or open source, don’t complain?

I have a beef with open source artificial intelligence the way it currently is presented.

It starts with promises. A new model like llama, much better than the predecessor due to more parameters.

Then everyone fine tunes models and uploads them.

Whenever you run into issues compiling, using and managing expectations, nobody is there to talk to, because “open source”.

Often, provided there’s documentation, it’s written for computers, not people.

Transformers being black boxes, you always have the choice to take it or leave it. There is no debugging, really.

Most, me included, do not know how the math behind it works, so we are at the mercy of tutorials, which detail an ultra-niche case, 1% of users can apply.

Is there a middle ground between pay and get support or open source, don’t complain?

Declaration of Ethics for Artificial Intelligence
Foster Gamble
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has exploded into the headlines worldwide.

Thrilling promise…chilling threat. This development is going to be epic — and we need to get it right, or else.

In the same way that I believe humanity has been dangerously missing a Universal Morality to guide our self-organizing, so is AI missing this critical “true North.” The UN, the WEF, the White House, multiple governments and others have issued their versions of an “AI Bill of Rights,” but they are inadequate, self-serving covers for more centralized power and control.
