I'm not the one purity testing, so I don't know how long the taint sticks.
Also, on the subject of soap boxes, I'm just babbling on the internet. We all come here to read and express opinions, right? Mine is that there is no way I can possibly know who associated with what product donated to what political campaign, so I'm having trouble mustering outrage about this one asshole doing asshole things. They're all assholes.
If anything, my soap box cry is "Meh, whatever"
I find lots of entertainment in silly stuff, like debates about the earth being flat or not. As it turns out, the planet Earth might be an oblate spheroid. Who knew?!
Just because you don't find anything of use to you, and keep clicking the click bait so it recommends more clickbait, doesn't mean nobody else uses the site. I like to have silly shit running in the background while I work. Maybe you listen to music instead? It's not like we all have to like the same things.
I'm going to be super-mega-controversial here, and tell you all how I removed ads on YouTube:
YouTube Premium.
Yes, I realize it's not very common to pay for the services we use these days, but I watch enough YouTube that I though it'd be neat. It is. No ads, except the direct sponsors of the people I actually watch. I only wish that this would make them not also sell my data, and track the shit out me, and all that jazz. I'd like to be the customer, if you'd let me, Alphabet.
The real question is if they have sugar in their porridge.
Okay, I'll take your word for it.
I've never ever, in many hours of playing with ChatGPT as a toy, had it make up a word. Hallucinate wildly, yes, but not stogulate a word out of nothing.
I'd love to know more, though. How does it combine new words? Do you have any examples of words ChatGPT has made up? This is fascinating to me, as it means the model is much less chained to the training data than I thought.
Yep yep, statistical analysis as to the frequency of tokens in the training text.
Brand new, never-before-seen Windows keys have a frequency of zero occurrences per billion words of training data.
For me, a good interview is a dialogue where the company representative shows me as much about the company as I do about me as a candidate. Take-home tasks are okay, I guess, but I suspect they might balk at me requesting they handle a mock HR issue, or whatever, for me!
