Excluding the obvious ones such as politics, what topics can't you stand listening to people talk about? (lemm.ee)

For me it's detailed describtions about people's dreams.

Not only doesn't your story make any sense, but you're also telling me about something that didn't even happen. It's kind of like telling about an event, and then ending the story by saying you just made it all up, except with dreams you begin by telling it's all made up. I'm already not interested before you even started.

The AI that fascinates me is just an idea. No such thing, or really even anything close to it exists. Atleast not yet. It's more of a thought experiment and a philosophical dilemma. That however doesn't make me any less worried of it. This technology keeps making big leaps forward.

ChatGPT for example will contradict itself and hallucinate information

So do humans. I agree though. At best GPT4 only shows *signs of *intelligence. Still nothing close to AGI. Can't deny it's not impressive though.

When it comes to contradictions and hallucinations, sometimes people will put out contradictory information or act hypocritical, the difference is intention. ChatGPT can't help but make contradictions and hallucinations because it has no awareness of what information it's putting forth. It will very convincingly present incorrect information and not know that's what it's done.

It is impressive. Except it's being touted as more impressive than it actually is and that's what annoys me. The complete lack of critically evaluating these models and then giving into survivorship bias.

That's all aside from the privacy and copyright concerns.
