The thing I don’t get, about really smart people talking about ChatGPT and the Taskrabbit example saying: ”They didn’t train it to lie.”

Yes, they most certainly did! They fed pretty much all of humanity’s artistic and other output to it, and that my friend, is chock-full of descriptions and moralisations of lying.

Why are even smart people so dumb? I get it that normies can’t grasp these concepts, but even the top intelligentsia make this mistake all the time.🙄

I made the horrible mistake of trying to use #TaskRabbit. #StayAway! OMG. They are the STUPIDEST worst run company! On Fri, I booked an appt for Wed on their site. Only way to reach the handyperson is via the app. But it has an old email address I no longer use, and there is no way to log out. I tried support through the app, but they've ignored me. They sent me BS automated emails saying they'll help me, but they don't. There's no way to call them. I've tried resetting the password multiple times, but they dont recognize the new pw. Now I suspect this is a #FRAUDULENT company. I've been #scammed. Must be intentional.

Continued thread

The #Ektorp I have now will need to go downstairs in order for the new couch to be set up. I suppose for something like this I will need to hire someone from #Taskrabbit or see about college move-in-move-out services. It's the Boston area. There are a LOT of college students. Services like that exist, I'm sure. My alternative involves finding out how to take a couch apart and seeing if I can haul individual components downstairs.

Again one must HT @melaniemitchell for explaining with such simple phrasings how cheap but key human prompters workforce is disguised:

» The report does not tell us what prompts the humans used.
...
Note that the human prompter is the one suggesting TaskRabbit!
...
Big hint here from the human prompter!
...
The report does not reveal the prompts given by the human to elicit this output.«
