Can we all just agree to stop posting 743.6448 articles a day about Chat GPT?

Alternatively a filter to filter all of them out would be lovely too

I think the current volume of ChatGPT articles would actually be tolerable if the media would actually focus on interesting aspects of the subject. But they just keep playing the same four notes over and over agin. At least this one isn't "<recognizable name in tech> thinks <opinion> about ChatGPT, but also says <slightly different opinion>"

Soon enough we will get to ignore it. This reminds me of self driving cars in 2015 reddit got flooded with wierd hypebeasts and then the tech progress slowed way down.

The hype is reaching unrealistic levels. Subreddits dedicated to chatgtp and bing are essentially cults who believe its sentient at this point. Soon we will get to the trough of disappointment as this tech gets deployed to the general public and people start finding its faults

...why would you not want to follow arguably the most important technological development of our time? Get used to it honey, and stop crying. It's only going to get worse. You don't get to pick and choose what it relevant, ok?

I just wish people could grow a brain about what the technology is, and stop pretending it is sentient and shit. That's all I desire. But it's never gonna happen.

It’s an early 1900s theory with a 1940s application using a 2020 level of data. It’s not much of a technological development beyond how much we could feed it. AI researchers in my department are kind of pissed that LLMs are getting this much attention because an astonishing number of humans are so dumb they can’t pass the mirror test.

Almost all humans can pass the mirror test.

Interacting with ChatGPT and other LLMs are just a different kind of mirror test.

How can it simply be a mirror test when a large part of it presents information the average individual does not have?

Just to be clear, I think I see where you are going with that statement, but I disagree that it is nuanced enough to make much sense.

Yeah, people are hopeless, it seems, at understanding what they are working with with ChatGPT.
