Here's how the data we feed AI determines the results https://theregister.com/2023/04/28/column/ by @sjvn
Yes, generative #AI programs, like #ChatGPT, sound like they know what they're talking about, but the closer you look, the worse they appear. Here's why.
@b4cks4w We really don't have much of a clue where ChatGPT gets its data from. And, unless, they're forced to open their LLMs, we'll never know.
@sjvn Bing's bot pulls from obscure sources which I know because it often mis-cites them, so I reinterrogate it and find them. My day job is safe for a while longer.
Would need to know much more about what's in the black box, i.e. what sources it contains, how they're prioritizedand what is excluded before I could rely on this types of things for any substantive research
As you say they are not open, oh well.
