ChatGPT

I've been using ChatGPT plus for sometime but I realized that, asking it for solutions for problems actually invites you on a wild goose chase or direct you in the wrong direction some times.

Maybe I'm not being precise enough in my requests or asking the wrong questions. I've cancelled my subscription as I'm going to use it less from now on. Time can be saved though with LLM's so they really have their uses.

I'll use it to study and ask about concepts instead and If I'm really stuck I might ask for a solution.

Bing

I tried using microsoft bing once, and when I jokingly asked if they use bing's brother, bong internally at microsoft it just wouldn't answer and then acted like I never asked the question in the first place.

I told it to print out my requests which it did excluding my joke. When I said one request was missing, it simply added a random made up one. When I said I never asked that question, it said that it must be from another conversation.

Previously I had asked bing about things like that and it said that there is no link between users requests, between conversations and so on. I pointed that out and then it said that that it is correct. Then it said it didn't know why it happened.

Manipulative LLM's?

If a LLM is trained so, it can lie and probably does so, they can twist and direct the user into another way of thinking. Users should be wary of this as it could be very subtle. It's another reason why I've decided to cancel my subscription, OpenAI they call themselves, say where is the Open part? I guess anyone can use it and perhaps become manipulated?

Others ones like Bing or Deepseek for example is no better I guess. If the new generation are not teached properly about these new tools, the internet, the media and their dangers and uses. I guess this quote from Einstein sums it up. 

"I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots." - Albert Einstein

I think LLM's are really cool and useful but who decides what information is good for the user? Isn't that up to the user to decide themselves?

Excuse me for my rant, time to get back to the project.
