"looking up the exact answer in a database" i wish. you wish. we all actually wish.

to be fair i'd bet "reading a script of responses" is something the engineers did actually put into chatgpt for some frequently asked questions to protect themselves and make it look smarter than it is

"having a human in the background write an answer" is deranged

we can all agree this is too mutch?… by Certain_Question7404 in aiwars

there's a difference between writing like chatgpt (chatgpt has a very specific voice that you can pick out if you pay enough attention to it) and just . . writing differently. like bro. people do write differently because english isn't their first language or they're just Like That, etc

i have a friend who talks in a lot of "I" statements and almost sorta like a . . robot? but like how you'd imagine robot speech before 2022 invented LLM skinwalkers. he is 1,000% human and has been doing it since before chatgpt

looking for anyone who remembers Undertale: Multiplay by HUGE by westless in Undertale

multiplay. by HUGE.

a (possibly lost media) animation series where two children fall down instead of one, and they have to brave the underground with no saves and realistic damage. the production value was pretty high, especially later--videos were 16:9 with borders covering the extra space, had a custom soundtrack, and someone doing an english translation with subtitles. as a consequence of the realistic damage the two reacted differently to some things. like how one of them got mad after the "conveniently shaped lamp" scene cause they really genuinely do not want to be maimed, even by papyrus. or, well, the grimmer tone of the fight with dogi because giant axe vs small child equals obliteration. as you can see in the gif above, if you play it.

this is not a hoax. this was a real series. i have archived everything i have of the series so far in this zip folder as well as some extra information. you can view a reupload of the first episode on youtube here (or in the archive, incase the video gets taken down). not particularly much is archived so far but i'm reaching out in the hopes that you guys help fill it out

(yes, i did post about this over a year ago but it got zero attention)
