As someone doing teaching, I already had quite enough of "If you have any further questions - just let me now! ๐Ÿ˜Š" in answer boxes.

When it was new, I got a lot of "Certainly! ..."

Like, come on, mate. You didn't even read the first sentence before submitting.

I'm gonna bet everything I own that Viking_Hippie plays a video game within the next 24 hours. Any takers?

Do you want to get kidnapped and handcuffed to a radiator for 24 hours? Because that's how you get kidnapped and handcuffed to a radiator for 24 hours.

what's the market on viking_hippie getting kidnapped and getting handcuffed to a radiator for 24 hours because let me know when that one starts to go up

i haven't seen those guys much but based on the little i've seen, i think they believe whatever makes the most amount of money

That was always my assumption of the end game. You have the system prompts, an advertising bias prompt layer over top, then the user prompts.

"Naturally worded" advertising that doesn't immediately appear to be advertising and searching using natural language always seemed to be the biggest use cases for LLMs to me, considering they can't be relied on to output accurate info.

Exactly. Like big pharma paying ChatGPT to convince you that your symptoms are an illness they have pills for. It'd turn the LLMs from librarians into salesmen playing librarians lol.

Yes, Iโ€™ve been saying this for over a year now about AI-driven search. And not just specifically search engines. Like โ€œwhereโ€™s the nearest coffee shop?โ€ To your phones assistant or whatever

I currently tend toward perplexity because traditional search engines are so terrible now thanks to ads and seo. Weโ€™re speedrunning llms being just as useless at finding things

It's already pretty biased. For web projects it almost always recommends Supabase and Vercel.

I mean when they do introduce intentional bias, we'll have no way of proving it for certain

is polymarket reporting news here or are they reporting the results of a bet event contract?

Have they rolled out the ads yet ? I feel like they keep teasing it but I might have missed the roll out and the backlash (there is no way there would not be SOME backlash)

LLM output is one of the few places Iโ€™d be OK with seeing ads. Iโ€™d almost go so far as advocating for it to be mandated, because it would help make slop easier to identify and filter out.

The real issue is that since any fingerprint that can be mandated for AI content must be algorithmically implemented, then that fingerprint can be algorithmically removed.

For example, let's say companies voluntarily choose or are forced to integrate text fingerprinting into LLM output. Automated AI writing detection tools already exist, but they're not reliable. But in principle we could make the output of LLMs easy to identify. Maybe we force them to adopt subtle but highly unique patterns of word choice, punctuation, sentence structure, etc. Then if any student attempted to upload an LLM-generated essay to their course website, the system could with high accuracy flag it as AI generated.

But...if those patterns are so clear and unambiguous, it also means they can be easily detected by third party tools. If one person can code ChatGPT to add special fingerprinting to the text ChatGPT creates, another person can create a program that you can paste ChatGPT text into that will remove that fingerprinting.

Then there's the student who plays wanthunder and leaks a classified F-47 detailed blueprint onto the paper.
