What are they doing that causes these errors anyway? Do they just show the Ai the photo of the item and ask it to generate text?

ChatGPT can't parse image files so they probably just malformed the prompt. I don't know why they used ChatGPT instead of just typing out a product name, it would probably be the same amount of work.

OpenAI tries really hard to make sure ChatGPT only allows super bland, neutral, and safe responses. The filters kick in if there is even a vague probability of controversy. It could have been any random thing that triggered the filter.

I mean, are we surprised?

first thing the Internet was used for was to find porn.
second thing, cute animal pictures, mostly cats.
third thing, i need some new slurs.


I did overhear a dude yesterday at work, ranting and raving to someone on his phone about how some people in the family never do poo poo and only call when they need something and then he dropped this gem: "No one can love you like an app."

I don't know if he meant a basic app or like a chatbot. Part of me wants to try hitting one up to see what the big deal is, but overall it looks just like trash/run by some weirdo in his basement with a bunch of anime girl posters on the walls (THEY LOOK 12 BUT THEY'RE 5000 YEAR OLD DRAGONS, OKAY).

Wrong lads.
Those AI chatbots are wild. People basically get addicted to them, it's like chatting with someone who will agree with anything you think and reinforce you, and also sext with you whenever you want. One of the major ones was invented by someone who lost their best friend and created a chatbot from their text messages so they could keep talking to them. It's all a bit icky.

How...how does that even work? Like you just send samples of a text chat you had with someone and the AI is able to copy it enough that it could fool you? I mean grief and all, you want to be fooled.

Who the gently caress is behind the chatbots? I can't imagine all that data is just chilling in some drive somewhere. I'm surprised it isn't run by loving ad men.

Large language models are built with a big linear algebra library that can ingest text and probability map enough stuff in enough layers to guess what you probably want to hear when you supply it with a certain text.

Most models have scraped the Internet for a basic ingestion of how humans talk in English and build what are becoming known as foundation models. When you play in an OpenAI sandbox you're using the ChatGPT or GPT-4 foundation model for example. With a good enough foundation model, you can use as little as dozens of words to train it to respond in a certain tone and attitude or with certain learned knowledge letting you build zero human effort chat bot personas with small amounts of new text training.

So you basically have this giant database of a foundation model on AWS or calling someone else's on a software as a service model somewhere in the cloud, and build little satellite models that process your chat inputs into and out of the foundation model and it's all fairly cheap enough to run as a subscription to pay your cloud fees and foundation model licensing. All of this is generally using web development ideas you'd use for any given phone app so it's a relatively approachable project for a startup.

I don't doubt interns exist but do you really believe it's silly stupid interns and not entire marketing teams dedicated to, you know, advertising products on official company accounts whose purpose is to advertise? I promise you the days of dumping social media accounts onto unpaid interns is long past, if it ever happened.

I don't think anyone actively looked at what was being posted to the account specifically beyond "is this obviously a very bad look to society in general in a way we can't pretend we didn't realize" and just prepared a whole year's worth of generic scheduled tweets in an afternoon.

The only real defense is that they are likely nowhere near self-aware enough to do that.

The FBI are, and always have been, just cops with even less accountability.

Late I know but outrage and provoking response via purposefully racist or sexist advertising is an age old tactic. That's why beauty brands still use gypsy or antiblack phrases. To get reactions.

Hell, LUSH UK was using 'ladyboy' as a transmisogynistic title for a banana scented perfume not even 10 years ago. They know what they're doing.

I feel like there’s a profound difference between “big ol’ bad guy for all your guys to fight” and “a horse.” It doesn’t even seem to be a famous horse. It’s not like “Bathorse” or something.
