To be fair, based on observations after these years, it doesn't appear that waiting longer before release would have significantly improved Autocomplete Idiocy in any way.

Im not a lawyer but the most conclusive missing piece of what we commonly understand to be libel is the information has to be published.

Meanwhile, AI vendors:

“AI will soon be the only way we access information and make decisions!”

It's been shown repeatedly that putting the same input into a gen AI will often get the same output, or extremely similar. So he has grounds to be concerned that anybody else asking the LLM about him would be getting the same libelous result.

They may seem like nerf when they first come out of the AI, but they turn into real bullets once they start filling people's heads with convincing enough lies and falsehoods, and those people start wielding their own weapons against minorities, democracy, and the government. If the election of Trump 2.0 has not convinced you of the immense danger of disinformation and misinformation, I have literally no idea how anything could ever possibly get through to you.

AI is a thing people choose to host and are responsible for the outcomes of its use. The internal working and limitations of the machine do not make the owners less responsible.

Maybe the owners of LLMs need to be held responsible for the problematic software they release

Yea, I’m mind blown, how, after 3 years people still don’t know how to use LLM effectively in use cases they bring value (by reducing work time)

• start a second chat and ask different to verify
• if you use chatGPT reason feature, read reasoning output as well!
• best search for verifiable thing, like code, that you can run or similar
• if you use it for research, only trust the info, if it used web search and you have read the webpages it used to summarise as well, or use traditional web search to verify based on the output
• it is great to manipulate text until sounds as desired (if you are not good in wording stuff anyway)
• plan what steps to do in a project next (like “i want to do xxx have y and need it to be z, make me a list of todos)
• and of course it is great to generate simple python scripts fast (I often use it as my python writing slave)

Using AI like this, helped me enormously in work and live Like, I learned a lot C, C++, how linux kernel modules work, how PO/POT works, helped me with translations, introduced me into music production, helped me set up appFlowy and general windows/linux issues.

you misspelled "is fucking wrong all the goddamn time"

So then what's the use of the program if it uses a bunch of energy to just make shit up?

And when it hallucinates harmful things, protections need to be put onto the output.
