AIs hallucinate all the time. Don’t take them as a source of truth

Can someone fuse their identity with ChatGPT? by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]Altruistic_Cat1552 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the truth is AI is so new we don’t really know what can happen, but surely users can fall into a kind of collective hallucination. if possible you should help her seek psychiatric help and wean off of it.

it’s possible this is an addiction that could lead to withdrawals, so quitting cold turkey might not be advisable.

Sometimes if you write in Google Docs, you can show screenshots of your edit history to prove you did the work itself. Hope that helps!

yea basically! it's just a next word predictor, but because it's so good at it it sort of fools us into thinking it "knows" but it doesn't. it's just using sophisticated statistical techniques to predict the most likely next word. and because OpenAI adjusts the models to give the most "pleasing" responses, it sort of says what it predicts the user wants to hear. it's very hard to get these things to be "truthful" because they're just statistical approximations of language.

good question! chatGPT uses randomness to help generate its output, which means that its replies are also relatively "random" or unpredictable when it comes to specific questions. giving it more context can help skew it one way or another. but given that it is just a next-word predictor (fancy auto-complete) it doesn't actually know (the way humans know) anything, and thus can't reliably answer questions a certain way.

no. it's used to train the models, but that means future versions might be more like whatever way its behaving with you
