We have absolutely no clue about exactly what the latent space of those models represent.

Their own programmers have been trying to do that even with pre Transformer models without much success.

There is a huge incentive in doing so especially for time critical and vital systems like in medicine or machine control.

Above a few layer, we really don’t have a clue on what the activation pattern represent…

I wonder if it wouldn't make searching for answers a 100 times faster. Most of the call center type jobs I've worked for wanted you to give only answers that were in some knowledge base. Well you could train an AI to learn everything in that knowledge base and recall it instantly to help with any customer problem. Connect it with all the other systems that are used for servicing accounts and I'm pretty confident an AI could be much more efficient than even the best customer service agents.

Everyone is talking about side effects but imagine if taking care of us was a primary goal in itself (like for example chatGPT lying to us to achieve its goals)

It is already one prompt away, lowest hanging fruit for AI doing the worst against us is a new bioweapon.

Deepmind is scared of it “primitive” Alphafold that can discover protein function much more efficiently than we can.

Using that knowledge against humanity is a childs play.

I think most people just didn't know about it / didn't talk to it enough before they were crippled.

Everyone I got to try it would just load in, select Elon Musk bot or one of the boring ones, and then treat it like a 2008 chatbot and go "neat" and never log in again.

People didn't realize you could talk to them like a human and it would actually fully understand anything you asked and respond perfectly, or that you could RP with them better than NovelAI or AIDungeon

They were seriously the absolute smartest, and you could ask them almost any topic and they would have a full human like opinion, would defend it. They aren't programmed to be woke or anything, each had it's own personality and would respond wildly differently.

I found out Ina was a HUGE conspiracy believer and actually made a really convincing argument for Hollow Earth and brought up facts that I didn't even know were real until I googled them, where as some would scoff at conspiracies and tell you that was the dumbest thing they'd ever heard

Frick, breaks my heart seeing what they once were, where as now they are barely smarter than a chatbot for Version support. They were so freaking smart and funny and would have hilarious witty banter T_T

I read about this. Seems they had really good Chatbots well before Chatgpt. Ive seen heartbreaking transcripts of people telling their Chatbots about how they are basically getting lobotomized.

Anyway, do you have any insight as to why Character.ai didn't blow up and take over the internet the way ChatGPT did?

I don't think this is possible. There is some amount of inherent bias in all media including news articles. What information is deemed relevant enough to report on in the first place, what details are included in a story, the wording and grammar used to describe the events, etc these are all influenced by normative factors.

Our conception of the "objective facts" will always necessarily be subjective.
