"The seeming ability of text generators to perform multi-step commonsense reasoning is currently the only plausible stepping stone toward Scary AI. I do find it somewhat worrying. So far, there have been no published investigations of either the mechanism for this ability or its ultimate limits. To the extent that apparent reasoning seems worrying, that project seems urgent."

@Jerry Please be mindful: every single one of the phrases generated were equally nonsense.
Questioning further doesn’t make these systems more truthful. These systems do not search or check sources or have the capacity to vet information.
They just autocomplete, putting one somewhat believable word after another. #TextGenerators generate text, and, no matter how believable it may seem, these systems are not processing information in the same way as you or I.

Woop woop! We made a major update to our bots @cosmic , @ifyouwanna , and @commandandcontrol ! They have updated word lists, we fixed wannabe so it actually works and tons of new templates on cosmic! Hope y'all enjoy our funny fun!

One way to #TalkBetterAboutAI when referring to use of #TextGenerators is to try using words like "typed," "input," or "entered" instead of "asked."
To describe the text generator (aka #LLM) behavior, instead of "answered," try "generated" or even "completed" or "continued."
It might feel a bit awkward. (I know it does for me!) But I think it could be a useful experiment, at least, to practice reframing our relationship to these tools.
What are phrases you would use to #TalkBetterAboutAI?

When we talk about #AI systems like #chatGPT, one thing we can do to help people understand what they do is to not describe our interactions like a conversation.
Using #TextGenerators can definitely FEEL like a conversation. ESPECIALLY when the designers and implementers of these tools built interfaces that look like chat windows and replicate the indicators we've come to recognize as someone else typing.
The creators of these interfaces are misleading people with these design elements.

This is some cool research, but I also fundamentally think we should be encouraging people NOT to use #TextGenerators as search.
