"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Yes, it can obviously never entirely replace real surveys. I would assume that survey results forming a part of the training set is a big part of why they're able to get good results in the first place, and as I said I think its a significant risk that the evaluation is done it performs well because the data being evaluated against are (unbeknownst to the researcher) present in the training set.
