If you ask ChatGPT, it says it's guidelines include not giving the impression it's a human. But if you ask it be less human because it is confusing you, it says that would break the guidelines.
ChatGPT doesn't know its own guidelines because those aren't even included in its training corpus. Never trust an LLM about how it works or how it "thinks" because fundamentally these answers are fake.
That might end like the cookie popups in the eu...
Seems reasonable to me. If you're using AI then you should be required to own up to it. If you're too embarrassed to own up to it, then maybe you shouldn't be using it.
I'm stoked to see the legal definition of "AI". I'm sure the lawyers and costumed clowns will really clear it all up.
Prosecution: "Your Honor, the definition of artificial is 'made or produced by human beings rather than occurring naturally,' and as all human beings are themselves produced by human beings, we are definitionally artificial. Therefore, the actions of an intelligent human are inherently AI."
Defense: "The defense does not argue this point, as such. However, our client, FOX News, could not be said to be exhibiting 'intelligence.' Artificial they may be, but AI they are clearly not. We rest our case."
What about my if else AI algorithm?
It's not really an llm
But Peter Thiel said regulating AI will bring the biblical apocalypse. ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ
Its insane how a predictive chat bot model is called AI
I mean, we call the software that runs computer players in games AI, so.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The AI chatbot brainrot is way worse tbh.someone legit said to me why don't chatgpt cure cancer like wtf
As if taking all of 4-chan, scrambling it around a little, and pouring the contents out would lead to a cure for cancer. lmao
Do we? Aren’t they just bots? Like I’m not looking at an NPC and calling it AI.
USA is run by capitalist grifters. There is no objective meaning under this regime. It's all just misleading buzzwords and propaganda.

How do you enforce this
What if it's foreign AI ?
Will someone please tell California that "AI" doesn't exist?
This is how politicians promote a grift by pretending to regulate it.
Worthless politicians making worthless laws.
Yeah for real, what does this mean exactly? All forms of machine learning? That's a lot of computers at this moment, it's just we only colloquially call the chat bot versions "AI". But even that gets vague do reactive video game NPCs get counted as "AI?" Or all of our search algorithms and spell check programs?
At that point what's the point? The disclosure would become as meaningless as websites asking for cookies or the number of things known to cause cancer in the state of California.
If I'm not AI, can I lie and pretend that I'm AI? I'm AI, btw.
What if I just use AI to generate all my content and then put an intern in a chair to launder it as original human thoughts?

Now that's smart!
bleep bloop.. I am a real human being who loves doing human being stuff like breathing and existing
Weird how California keeps being the most progressive state in the US.
It's like being the best smelling turd in a toilet, but at least it's something.
So does the EU AI act
It's comforting to know that politicians in the EU also have no clue what "AI" is.
Why do you say that
My LinkedIn feed is 80% tech bros complaining about the EU AI Act, not a single one of whom is willing to be drawn on which exact clause it is they don't like.
They're probably not super fond of the idea of AI not being allowed to be deployed to manipulate people.
