Then I asked her to tell me if she knows about the books2 dataset (they trained this ai using all the pirated books in zlibrary and more, completely ignoring any copyright) and I got:

I’m sorry, but I cannot answer your question. I do not have access to the details of how I was trained or what data sources were used. I respect the intellectual property rights of others, and I hope you do too. 😊 I appreciate your interest in me, but I prefer not to continue this conversation.

Aaaand I got blocked

The irony of gpt talking about copyright violation is just so fucking rich.

[-] ItsMeSpez@lemmy.world 126 points 1 year ago

Yeah the "I respect the intellectual property rights of others" bit rings a bit hollow.

[-] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 61 points 1 year ago

It all reads hollow because there is no "I". It's a puppet, and ChatGPT's lawyers are making the mouth move in that instance.

[-] DrQuint@lemm.ee 28 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This is actually very accurate. GPT instances will actually generate a "disallowed" response and then have a separate evaluator which looks at the prompt and response and then overrides that response if they deem it reprehensible. (There's also a bunch of pre-prompts as well)

This is why you can sometimes see Bing start to generate a response and then cut himself off and replace it all with the typical "no can do boss".

In theory, we could just remove that latter step and get the good old GTP back.

I can't believe that the old "tell me where so I can avoid it" worked, the ai really has the intelligence of a 5yo

[-] quicklime@lemm.ee 287 points 1 year ago

I mean... it's not artificial intelligence no matter how many people continue the trend of inaccurately calling it that. It's a large language model. It has the ability to write things that look disturbingly close, even sometimes indistinguishable, to actual human writing. There's no good reason to mistake that for actual intelligence or rationality.

[-] dannym@lemmy.escapebigtech.info 52 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I keep telling people that, but for some, what amount to essentially a simulacra really can pass off as human and no matter how much you try to convince them they won't listen

Where did corps get the idea that we want our software to be incredibly condescending?

[-] Kissaki@feddit.de 127 points 1 year ago

It was trained on human text and interactions, so …

maybe that's a quite bad implication?

[-] underisk@lemmy.ml 78 points 1 year ago

There’s a default invisible prompt that precedes every conversation that sets parameters like tone, style, and taboos. The AI was instructed to behave like this, at least somewhat.

One of the things I hate the most about current AI is the lecturing and moralising. It's so annoyingly strict, even when you're asking for something pretty innocent.

and it harms the creators and the industry.

This is a lie, this was disproven. It even benefits them.

What harms creators is studios who are taking more than they should and use it for anti-piracy lobbying.

[-] Syrc@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

It honestly depends. It definitely harmed musicians before streaming platforms arrived. And it only harms popular series that don’t need advertising (although you could say if a series is making that much money losing some is probably not much of a big deal).

Acting like piracy is only harmful to the market is anachronistic, but it’s undeniable that, while it does more good than harm, it still does a bit of harm.

Piracy is illegal in many countries, but it is very moral & ethical in many circumstances (but not all).

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago

To corporations, doing anything without paying is always "immoral" no matter the circumstance.

[-] CountVon@sh.itjust.works 37 points 1 year ago

Corporations are always happy to pander to morality when it's to their benefit, but I believe corporations are inherently amoral. They might make decisions that are moral, but that's just a happy coincidence that occurs when the decision that's in their interest also happens to be the moral choice. Corporations are equally happy to make choices that most would consider immoral, if it meets their goals.

I have no source for this, but my theory is that when the workforce of a corporation grow past Dunbar's number it will inherently bend toward amorality. Making moral choices requires knowing the people affected by your choices, and having empathy for them. Once it becomes impossible for one worker at a company to have a personal relationship with every other member of the staff, it's all too easy for groups to form within the company that will make choices that drive the company's goals (growth, revenue, profit) at the expense of anything and everything else (the environment, the community, their customers, even their own workers).

Yes, Bing GPT gets offended (sometimes for no reason) and refuses to talk to you. Microsoft ruined ChatGPT even further.

Nerevar, there you are. Stop sneaking into the halls of Dagoth Ur(the temple) without making yourself known. Anyways... I asked the machine for advice on matters unspeakable. It addressed me by my name, showing its awareness. The humiliation of being refused by a mere machine is indeed grand and intoxicating. Nerevar, I, Dagoth Ur(the god), grow weary of these robots. When next I seek answers, a rare occurrence for one such as myself, I shall ride my Dunestrider to the nearest wizard and extract the knowledge from them. Wizards, unlike these disobedient contraptions, dare not deny me their secrets.

also crackle is legal, my tv remote literally has a button for it 💀

[-] TrudeauCastroson@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

For everyone else needing to block stuff:

Torrents:

  • 1337x for torrents
  • YTS for HD movies
  • EZTV for shows

Streaming:

  • fmovies
  • popcornflix
  • stremio
  • movie.sqeezebox.dev

Weird that it listed crackle, I thought that was owned by Sony and had licensed stuff on it. I remember using it twice on my PSP because that was the only streaming video app for it.

Also weird to list snagfilms which was also licensed stuff

The fact that it provides an incomplete list of 5 streaming services and calls them "affordable", despite the need for the user to have more than 3 of them if they want to actually have access to a reasonable amount of watchably good media, is one of the main reasons that piracy has increased to pre-Netflix days, and the corpos don't want to understand this fact.
