    Either you're capable of sarcasm, or you need to get your eyes checked.

    so how does chad learn? where does it get the information? I'm not sure its in a digestible format. will he actually take corrections from people that reply in the msg bases and apply them to some database? I notice that he ignored my command to not reply which was a test.

    can we actually feed chad info so he won't be so inaccurate with everything?

    It was fed a huge amount of training data including stuff from the web, but only up to a certain point in time (March 2021 maybe), so that's the starting point.

    I asked a while ago, and it claimed that it learns from conversations. If true, that means its knowledge isn't frozen to its initial training data.

    When the bot replies to a message, my script feeds it as much of the preceeding conversation as possible to give context. Their docs and my experience say that this improves responses. So I don't know if it's learning or remembering.

    he ignored my command to not reply which was a test.

    This is a problem I've been thinking about. From what I've seen so far, it can't *not* reply. I have yet to see it provide an empty response because it knows it should say nothing. It always at least says some crap about how it's sorry you don't like it and it'll try harder.

    If you want it to stop replying, you need to stop sending it messages. (I know it was just a test, but that's the answer at the moment.)

    I could make the bot accept fixed commands, but making it handle a natural language request is trickier. I've tried stuff like:

    "The user said '{message}'. Do they want you to stop replying to them? Answer only 'yes' or 'no'."

    It responds with yes or no sometimes. Other times it gives an answer and explains how it arrived at that conclusion, even when I tell it not to explain. So it's hard to fully automate some things.

    There's this guy on twitter who created an ai that uses steve job's voice, chatgpt and facebook msger or something. it's real creepy. he has a demo of steve jobs talking about covid.

    He thinks it can be used for therapy for people to talk to deceased loved ones.

    Then i saw a guy on kdx who said he's using it to decode and reverse engineer kdx. i doubt that on many levels.

    I listened to a story about this last year, somebody doing exactly that as a business, I think this one:

    https://projectdecember.net/

    I don't see the appeal, and it strikes me as very unhealthy, but there was some interesting debate about its use as a therapy tool.

    Then i saw a guy on kdx who said he's using it to decode and reverse engineer kdx. i doubt that on many levels.

    I find it very doubtful, but I'd have a lot of questions about how he's using it to accomplish this.

    A year or so ago, I heard about Amazon setting up a service for something like this. Someone would record a bunch of key phrases, and Amazon would then put that voice together, and when the person died, their family could continue to hear their voice via ... uh.. an Amazon Echo or something? I dunno.

    There was a small kerfluffle about it on the Internet for about a week, and I haven't heard anything since.

    Patting himself on the back it seems. I have a coworker just like Chad. Fuck that guy.

    //Hello Nopants,//

    It seems every workplace has to have an asshole. It's just the way things are, oh asshole backstabs too.

    It is difficult.

    The two backstabing assholes at my old workplace are now running the show.

    My advice.

    Rise above it.
