PayPal passes most billing information to the store where you purchased from. Card info is excluded, but in most cases PCI compliance checks ensure that card info is stored securely (or not at all).

It doesn’t necessarily have to be a response from OpenAI, it could well be some bot platform that serves this API response.

I’m pretty sure someone somewhere has created a product that allows you to generate bot responses from a variety of LLM sources. And if whatever is interacting with it is simply reading the response body and stripping out what it expects to be there to leave only the message, I could easily see a fairly bad programmer create something that outputs something like this.

It’s certainly possible this is just a troll account, but it could also just be shit software.

It can’t be effective. The risk of false-positives is huge.

Perhaps it was being influenced by the chat history. But try asking how many r’s in raspberry, it does get that consistently wrong for me. And you can ask it those followup questions to easily get it to spout nonsense, and that was mostly my point; figuring out if you’re talking to an LLM is fairly trivial.

My point is that telling it a right answer is wrong often causes LLMs to completely shit the bed. They used to argue with you nonsensically, now they give you a different answer (often also wrong).

The only question missing at the start was "How many r’s are there in the word ‘veryberry’. I think raspberry also worked when I tried it. This was ChatGPT4-O. I did mark all the answers as bad, so perhaps they’ve fixed this one by now.

Still, it’s remarkably trivial to get an LLM to provide a clearly non-human response.

Here’s what I got:**

It’s dead simple to see if you’re talking to an LLM. The latest models don’t pass the Turing test, not even close. Asking them simple shit causes them to crap themselves really quickly.

Ask ChatGPT how many r’s there are in “veryberry”. When it gets it wrong, tell it you’re disappointed and expect a correct answer. If you do that repeatedly, you can get it to claim there’s more r’s in the word than it has letters.

Any enterprise working with sensitive data certainly has to disable the feature. And turns out, that’s most enterprises.

I have heard very little, if any, enthusiasm about this. Nobody seems to be excited about it at all.

Nuclear reactors are ill-suited for baseloads, because they can’t scale their output in an economical way.

You always want the cheapest power available to fulfill demand, which is solar and wind. Those regularly provide more than 100% of the demand. At this point, any other power sources would shut off due to economical reasons. Same with nuclear, nobody wants to buy expensive nuclear energy at peak solar/wind hours, so the reactor needs to turn off. And while some designs can fairly quickly power down, powering up is a different matter and doing either in an economically feasible way is a fantasy right now.

If solar and wind don’t provide enough power to satisfy demand, some other power source needs to turn on. Studies have already shown that current-gen battery storage is capable of doing so. Alternatives could be hydrogen or gas power stations. Nuclear isn’t an option economically speaking.

Elected judges really isn’t all that common in the world. To me (Dutchman), electing judges/sheriffs sounds wild. Police does their own hiring, same goes for the judicial system. Judges decide who gets to be a high court judge, there’s no politics involved at all. That to me sounds like a massive violation of the trias politica.

It sounds more like Rashida Jones.

Well, the numbers show otherwise.

XD is Dubai (separate from the United Arab Emirates).

Ah, that may be true indeed.

Signal recently updated to allow usernames instead of phone numbers.

A strong bias against genocide and in favour of peace is not a very disagreeable one.

Definitely do! uBlock Origin is the best one around, and it’s completely free. Even without configuring anything the defaults block 99% of annoying ads.

Techwise it probably doesn’t, but then there’s marketeers, sales, accountants, legal, etc…

Well, more RAM will always help. An iPhone with more RAM will allow it to perform better than one with less RAM. Similarly, too little RAM will hamper performance regardless of the device.
