I just read an article on how cybercriminals use ChatGPT that is perfect for this thread (-:

Unfortunately, AI’s typical problem with biases, in particular those towards certain minorities which are discriminated against online, did not warrant making this release. It only gets a tiny mention under limitations:

GPT-4 still has many known limitations that we are working to address, such as social biases, hallucinations, and adversarial prompts.

and yet they released it. Anyone who still entertains this propaganda device while being aware of all of this is completely off my circle.

Can you help me understand what you mean by propaganda device?

I mean to call ChatGPT a potential propaganda device given its blatant inclination towards disinformation. With its copycats like that of Bing actively trying to gaslight its users too.

@altair222 @Gaywallet Well, is #ChatGPT better at misinformation than humans?

Why do you ask this question?

@Gaywallet Mostly because I find it odd that some place an odd amount of weight in the responses #ChatGPT provides. Many were shocked when it said things that were wrong, but in reality, it’s just imitating human beings, who are often wrong anyways. If I say misinformation to you, you’re very likely to not be as surprised or perturbed as if #ChatGPT told you misinformation, for example.

Why do you think that I perceive chatgpt in this way? I voiced an opinion about the biases that chatgpt and most AI have due to their large training sets which reflect systemic biases.

probably not, but is a very powerful weapon for it

@altair222 Ah I see…because of its capabilities for mass-producing fake news, that does make sense

@altair222 @realcaseyrollins I think ChatGPT is peak of diminishing returns of disinformation. Because it is not quality or quantity that matters though, there are different forces at play.
