I typed all this up for someone who posted a… very strangely written question regarding something they noticed with AI, but it appears to be deleted/removed… and, well, I wanna know if I got their question rephrased in a less… difficult to understand format. And then the answer to said question, because I find it interesting as well.
What I typed in response:
After parsing the insanity that is your writing style and… English as a second language? Allow me to confirm and summarize, because I find this question fascinating.
You’ve come across a LLM trend associated with said LLM being given instruction to describe/pretend to be a human named Delilah. LLM’s have gone viral at times for being instructed to formulate their output to sound like famous people with what appears to be resonable accuracy. But what goes into that ability is human words previously written associated with that person (or rather, their full name/titles/etc), as well as purposful restrictions given to the LLM directly (like, don’t output the N word).
Another lesser/totally unquantifiable factor in the output’s “tone” is result of errors in the blackbox algorithm that associates the “words” (not truly words I know, but essentially) in ways that aren’t what you’d expect.
(Here’s where my slight confusion mostly is) Each of these “factors” associated with the tone of the output… you’ve given names to? Or maybe my entirely self-researched knowledge has missed an agreed-upon naming system for these “characters”? I’m not quite sure.
And now your question and qualifers : Is there a pop culture/historic person or character named Delilah who is associated with furry stuff? Because you have been looking at some of the interesting mistaken/innacurate tones adopted by a LLM, and you’ve noticed that asl the LLM to output as if it was Delilah, and the results are furry related. And typically this sort of issue is mostly due to overlapping/similar names in the model’s training (as well as much stranger links without any explanation as to how they formed). And you’re research on “Delilah” hasn’t turned up anything giving reason for the LLM’s furry related output
… is that more or less what you are saying?
If you post strangely written questions on social media, you probably also type in strangely written text into AI. And in turn the AI will be confused and generate some random text. For example about furries or some other random topic. If it’s an AI service that’s made for erotic roleplay, it’ll be more likely than if you tried the same thing with ChatGPT.
You should ask this question in one of the AI communities, however. And not on No stupid questions.
And it’s better not to use derogatory language.
The user gave no reason to assume anything of that, nor did my description of the post, and may find the suggestion upsetting. Not going to go all PC 5-0 om you, but did want to distance myself from said assumption.
I have nothing to say. I can’t read past the insults to start. I think I’m in the wrong place here ATM. This has been a depressing experience I do not wish to continue.
I don’t think anybody insulted you mate - you wrote something that was quite hard to understand, and we were curious about what you meant. OP has clearly put quite a lot of effort into rephrasing and trying to understand your post - that’s as far from an insult as I can imagine.
Bacause LLMs are furcking stupid.
