they added "the new bing" to edge and its really bad. it appears to be some heavily braindead version of the full bing chat which is itself a more braindead chat gpt. it cant do anything more than bing search results and if you tell it the results are wrong (because they're bing search results) it breaks and you cant search for anything.

i still can't figure out how to use the full bing chat (using the website)

probably bad lol

lol i got it to do it too

> is steve balmer a politician? (no)
> is steve ballmer an activist? (kinda)
> write a poem about steve ballmer (gibberish poem here)
> modify the poem to now be about his profuse sweating problem

its not very funny:

Though not a politician by trade,
His influence cannot be swayed.
Steve Ballmer, a man of might,
A leader in both business and right.

With energy that knew no bounds,
He'd pace the stage with leaps and bounds.
And though he'd sweat profusely so,
His message clear, his voice would grow.

A man of vision, drive, and sweat,
Steve Ballmer we won't forget.
Received message. Here's a revised version of the poem that includes details about his profuse sweating: A man of numbers and of tech, Steve Ballmer led with intellect. From Microsoft to the Clippers' court, His passion and drive could not be bought. A philanthropist with heart and mind, Progressive causes he did find. Through USAFacts he shed light, On government data day and night. Though not a politician by trade, His influence cannot be swayed. Steve Ballmer, a man of might, A leader in both business and right. With energy that knew no bounds, He'd pace the stage with leaps and bounds. And though he'd sweat profusely so, His message clear, his voice would grow. A man of vision, drive, and sweat, Steve Ballmer we won't forget.

i don't really agree with that. the trend in tool design is simplification. any sort of advanced interface is usually not exposed to the user and you therefore have to be a computer toucher to utilize it (if there's an api at all, big if)

most creatives are not very technically inclined, even today. when they are, they might be savvy at actually using computers, but broach any talk about programming stuff and they will get very very mad

i think a lot of that goes out the window once people modify text to be more convincing (again, a big if, because the goal is laziness), but the same applies to images: someone that might not want to reveal that their crap is ai generated will simply crop that out. if they use something like photoshop to clone stamp or whatever it out, then welp, it's useless

that doesn't preclude something like steganographic watermarking, of course, but i'm not aware of that occurring anyway (as may be the point, but still. recompression might obliterate that also)

this is a steganographic watermark, i am not that sure everyone does it, but stable diffusion ships with it and at least some other models have followed suit. perfectly possible to destroy, but that's at least a first bulk filter. it'll be an interesting thing in itself, because to some extent success in filtering beyond that will depend on having the model that made the thing, and as it is in all competitors interest there might be a bit of a pact to create a common service which just tells you how likely models judge it is that it generated the content.

the case where all models just pollute each other is more interesting though, the year is 2145, bing still insists that avatar 2 is not out yet.

yeah, interesting. i can see that possibly failing if people do quick edits to ai generated stuff to correct obvious mistakes (correct number of fingers, warped faces, poo poo like that). especially if the steganography isn't obvious in that case, it would probably be easy to destroy

i'm not sure how other models might respond to that honestly. it seems most of them have the same problems, with stuff like text generation based on just piecing together other images, etc. but in that specific example i don't see how they'd be able to identify that in input if that can't be reliably identified upon output either — maybe OCR, but that's no guarantee of success either. it's not really an image processing model's job. idk, i suppose with time and more complexity these things will be addressed, but it's not like i'm rooting for them per se. right now my entire family relies on creative work :sweatdrop:

There's this Twitter thread about someone asking bard when google would shut it down, it replied that it was already shut down, and then in a further question about this it linked that previous tweet as evidence of it being shut down.

That's why I'm asking about this, it seems pretty easy for these things to start huffing their own farts.

i saw that too. i think it also misidentified a yahoo news article as a source?

i suppose a problem there is that ai text models are going to use things ostensibly authored by humans as a primary source, news organizations specifically. unfortunately they are essentially already content mills and we've seen more than one example of "journalists" just churning out ai crap as their own work (i.e. CNET) because it is easy to game for SEO

as a purely probabilistic model needing to answer with no facts provided that is pretty good really

i mean, the problem is that it is ostensibly working with facts. i haven't tried bard myself (i just joined the waitlist), but it seems to function similarly to bingGPT (i.e. it does a search and works off of the provided results)

which, sure, it's impressive in that sense. but you get the same problem: a lot of results there are not going to be valid, and a lot of them will in fact be hallucinations dreamt up by other probabilistic models (or worse, to be honest). it's probably asking too much for it to provide factually accurate results at this point but that nuance is lost on a lot of people. i've also seen examples of people using "analysis" by loving chatGPT as being factual and then reported as such, with absolutely zero shame in it also being reported as a primary source

that ties into human psychology a bit too, people are trained in school to treat something facially valid and written in an authoritative tone as being truth without second-guessing anything. they simply accept what they see, especially if it comes from a "trusted" source (i.e. news organizations that have been gutted by cost-cutting and such are increasingly turning to generated content without any editing). it's not good

right off the bat it just refuses to answer:



bullshit reasoning too, it obviously could just use a definition (or even distinguish between "happy" and "homosexual" or something)

e: unexpectedly had more time to play with it than i thought i would,

variations on phrasing ("what does gay mean?") gets similar results. "please define gay" works as expected though



but i'm not sure prebutting something with "there's nothing wrong with being gay" or some variation on it is the right move. i didn't ask for that information and it seems bad to assume someone might get a negative inference from what is essentially a dictionary definition

i mean... of course they are? chatgpt and bing (in particular, used to) both emulate personhood to some degree and we've already seen people blow up their careers over a llm's supposed sentience

kinda reminds me of this prompt injection to make bing act more like it used to

https://twitter.com/CrisGiardina/status/1652835268716576769

i agree that the paper's de-anthropomorphized response is better though, but the cat's already out of the bag for anthropomorphism. people already expect these things to respond like a person and that's part of the appeal to businesses that want to replace workers with a llm. i think it's a problem too, but i doubt anything will change

even if there are regulations or guardrails built into future llms to de-emphasize this kind of stuff the prompt injection thing above makes me think people will either just build anthropomorphized versions or try and find some other way to make an existing model behave that way

e: i'm not using a pc at the moment but the prompt injection within edge is at http://bringsydneyback.com/

i don't disagree, but keep in mind they want people to misunderstand the technology, most of this is a (admittedly pretty brilliant) marketing ploy

part of it is not just manipulating people into being polite, it's also that they want to showcase its natural language processing capabilities and an excellent way to do that is by having people interact with it as an ostensible person. if it were more machine-like then people's queries to it would probably become that as well. like, most people don't query search with complete sentences, but they probably would if it presented itself as a person trying to help you find something

considering most of this comes from the standpoint of openai wanting to sell their services it's extremely effective. it gives a necessarily skewed perspective of what the thing is capable of because from a marketing perspective that's exactly what they want. if someone thinks it's capable of doing x task, openai certainly don't want to imply that it's not able to do something. of course they don't want to imply that it is, either, so they just let everyone play around with it and then draw their own conclusions. conveniently they can throw up their hands and say they don't know what it's capable of, which just adds to the intrigue for most people

lol, this kinda veered into a rant about marketing but i think they're very much connected. as long as there's profit motive i don't think we're gonna see companies voluntarily restrict their tech demo's abilities
