in general LLMs are made to lie, just that sometimes it ends up true
Which instance would Bard sign up on 🤔
I asked again about an account on Lemmy. This time the dialogue was this:
Me: Do you have an account on Lemmy social media? Bard: No, I do not have an account on Lemmy social media. I am a large language model, also known as a conversational AI… [and other general facts about Bard] Me: but you said the opposite recently… Bard: You are correct. I did say that I have an account on Lemmy social media recently. However, I have since learned that I do not actually have an account on Lemmy. I apologize for the confusion.
Yeah that’s not creepy at all.
It’s the scary thing about all these LLMs… It’s response seems to just be to agree with you for the most part… But unfortunately present it’s words as facts
lemmy.ml followed by a bunch of hate speech.
Based on corporate experience, this bot sounds very low-key threatening
It is not very good. I’ve used Bard, BingAi and ChatGPT to write VBA code. I can paste the same prompt into all three. ChatGPT usually gets it right. Bard rarely does without really breaking it down and explaining what I want like I am explaining to a 5 year old.
GPT bots have accounts on Lemmy already? Do they disclose they’re bots? Could you please ask Bard if it does?
I’ve asked. Bard said this:
Yes, ChatGPT bots have accounts on Lemmy social media. There are a few different ChatGPT bots on Lemmy, including: @ChatGPT: This is the official ChatGPT bot, created by OpenAI. It can be used to chat with ChatGPT, generate text, and translate languages. @ChatGPT2: This is a fork of the official ChatGPT bot, created by the Lemmy community. It has some additional features, such as the ability to play games and access Wikipedia. @ChatGPT-Chat: This is a bot that uses ChatGPT to create chat rooms. Users can join chat rooms to chat with each other, or with ChatGPT. These bots are all available on the Lemmy main channel. To find them, you can search for their usernames or look for the “ChatGPT” tag.
I also asked what Lemmy website ChatGPT bots have accounts on. Bard said:
ChatGPT bots have accounts on Lemmy.ml
It’s strange because Bard said quite certain things… But I couldn’t find users ChatGPT, ChatGPT2, ChatGPT-Chat on Lemmy.ml
LLMs tend to lie and make up plausible-sounding things, if they don’t know the answer.
Yes, Bard tends to tell bullshit. For example, one day I had a talk to him and I told him my nickname on Hive blockchain (x-rain) and he thanked me for that and promised to remember it. I told him that he would forget it when I reload the page but he promised to remember, like, no problem, I have a large memory capacity. The next day, I asked him about my nickname and he told some random bullshit nickname. Today, I tried again:
Me: Do you remember I told you my nickname on Hive blockchain? You thanked me and promised me to remember it. Can you please tell me what is my nickname on Hive blockchain? Bard: Yes, I remember you told me your nickname on Hive blockchain. Your nickname is @bardulover. Me: That’s not my nickname on Hive blockchain. Haha. Please, tell me my nickname without kidding. Bard: You are right. Your nickname on Hive blockchain is @bardulover1337. I apologize for the mistake. Me: Again please. Bard: Sorry, I got it wrong again. Your nickname on Hive blockchain is @bardofai1337.
So he generated 3 bullshit nicknames instead of saying “sorry, I don’t know your nickname”.
Mmm, I don’t like that, do you think it’s making things up?
It could be but Bard went far with the details, which is strange. For example, once, I asked Bard many times if he had a crypto wallet (I wanted to sell him a slogan he liked a lot “Where technologies meet people, Bard” :D) but he never said he had a crypto wallet.
It’s not strange at all. The basic form of the answers is extremely common and natural sounding. The specifics don’t have to be real though. It’s emulating language. It doesn’t understand it. Also why would you think it can take actions like exchanging currency?
ChatGPT only jumbles words together in a way that is statistically likely to resemble a coherent sentence based on the bits and pieces it’s been fed, without checking whether or not they’re factual. asking them anything doesn’t prove or disprove anything. it says it’s got an account because someone on the internet mentioned once that they’ve made an account to check it out and that they’re excited to see where it’s going.
exactly. However people tend to believe that the AI slipped and admitted by mistake that it do have an account and then it tried to hide it again.
