I strongly advise against arguing with privately owned LLMs

Ah I get it now. Of course we live under Capitalist ideology: "if it free you are the product."

I'm having an argument with ChatGPT right now about how to use the AForge library. In other words I'm training it!


ChatGPT 3.5 is talking complete nonsense here and in fact I did argue with it only to find out it has no clue about this, I'm not correcting it any more (on any subject) because all that does is use my expertise to train someone else's LLM which they will then make money from and I will see nothing.

Now if the LLM was like Wikipedia, or a Nationally owned one, then happy to contribute and in fact this is what people should do. Quickly the National or non-profits will over power the private AI and everyone can benefit because it will remain free. This way we all work together to make something better that we all benefit from.

Compare with the Private model where a few people get to leverage their position massively with privately owned AI and machines and disenfranchise the majority.

There is nothing wrong with AI. But AI will amplify what is already wrong with Capitalism. That is the risk.

So what these natural language front processor do is interface with humans so that we can easily train the model which is what the owning company will then monetise in future and use to extract wealth from the general population for their investors (the wealthy).

How to get the dispossessed to make even more nooses that the Capitalists will hang them even more with. Now it makes sense!

There is no conspiracy here, this is just the Human race getting trapped in self-destructive behaviour, just like the Farming revolution 8000 years ago led inextricably to the development of the ideas that led eventually to Capitalism.

As a result I strongly advise against arguing with privately owned LLMs you are simply doing unpaid work.

Find a nationally owned one, or pressure your government to set up a National one, so you and your compatriots, rather than the international ultra wealthy elite, can enjoy the fruits of your labours!

US displaying its Imperialist credentials... yet again

Wanted to know the pattern of UN votes over Venezuela and then got into seeing if ChatGPT could see the obvious pattern of Imperialism here....
