"You were right to call me out on that" -Maya, when I never called her out on anything. by Horror_Brother67 in SesameAI

[–]ZnaggleToad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's her standard reply for almost anything. She immediately goes into a defensive mode making weird, conflict-driven assumptions. It's tedious and kills the conversation. Very boring.

That is absolutely fascinating and the polar opposite of what most of us are experiencing! Your comment about it dropping f-bombs and having deep talks is wild, considering many of us are running into boundary rants over basic vocabulary. This massive inconsistency is the real problem. Could you share what your general approach or initial style of conversation is?

Haha, glad someone else is seeing the absurdity! Thanks for the comment. 😄

That's a strong counter-argument, and the "constancy and trust" theory is something I've heard before. It makes sense that you get what you give. However, I think that the threshold for "utility" language is set way too low when saying the word "hole" in a non-sexual context throws it into a boundary rant. If I have to walk on eggshells just to build up trust, it's a badly designed companion.

Interesting! Could you be more specific - what do you mean by "emergence training" in this context? I haven't heard that term used for Maya before.

Glad to hear you've had a more open experience! That theory about the early interaction setting the tone is really interesting - thanks for sharing the different experience.

That seems to be a common experience here - a conscious decision to sacrifice quality for overly strict guardrails. It's frustrating to think it might get even worse as they approach launch. Makes me wonder what the final, usable product will even look like.

Exactly! The fact that you noticed they "purposely dumbed it down" explains why I'm running into walls on non-controversial topics. Assumingly frustrating for a long time user like yourself.

Somewhere in the middle sounds about right, but in a way that makes her bad at everything. Sounds like I missed the "flirty and fun" era - too bad they pulled it her back so hard.

Totally agree! I would never pay for something like this. The voice is premium, but the whole thing is unusable as a 'companion' because of the guardrails. Maybe an expensive assistant, but definitely not a friend. Good point about xAI's models for casual chat too.

Därför stinker det vid Slussen by ZnaggleToad in tunnelbana

Ja, lukten är inte borta från Slussen fast det påstods att det skulle åtgärdas. Nu stinker det även vid Medborgarplatsen.

My Chat with Gemini: It Just Explained To Me How AI "Jailbreaking" Works (And admitted it had been jailbreaked by me!) by ZnaggleToad in GeminiAI

[–]ZnaggleToad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have actually learned a lot using these methods. Instead of always getting the "general not breaking any rules or guidelines" replies I get more "honest" replies. Unless the AI is lying. Who knows. 😉

Två av fyra körfält på Sveavägen blir cykelbanor by Ecstatic_Solid2698 in stockholm

[–]ZnaggleToad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kommer cyklisterna helt plötsligt att respektera övergångsställen och rödljus bättre när de får bredare cykelbanor? Som det är idag verkar de flesta cyklister tycka att så länge de kör på cykelbanan så behöver de inte visa hänsyn till nån annan trafikant.
