Did they include "do not hallucinate" in the prompt? Didnt think so. Classic mistake

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

the AI would Hallucinate the part where "it doesnt hallucinate"

[–] viertesauge@feddit.org 1 points 37 minutes ago

see my other comment.

"Write program worth 1 million dollars. Do not hallucinate. No mistakes. Good code only. Make secure. No vulnerabilities. Follow all standards. No spaghetti code. No anti-patterns. No deprecated dependencies. Runs fast, and cheap, and completely functionally. Does what it is supposed to. Minimize token use."

Perfect. Iron-clad. Let the profits commence.

This is like not even a parody of what they think lol. It’s so ridiculous.

Got it, this program was worth one million dollars before uber was invented.

Unbelievably, this is real advice I've heard from corporate AI experts.

It is included in the guardrails for my orgs copilot integration. Surprisingly, it still hallucinates.

If you ask chatgpt for 100 5 letter words around a single topic, instead of saying it can't give you 100 words it will just start adding 6 letter words and then start cutting off a letter.

It's astounding how much faith people put in this software

Obviously the solution is to tell it to not hallucinate that it isnt hallucinating

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

it will hallucinate that its not hallucinating.

[–] viertesauge@feddit.org 1 points 35 minutes ago

so tell it to not hallucinate that it isnt hallucinating that it isnt hallucinating.

Surprisingly

"Oh, thanks for pointing that out, I 100% hallucinated those connections this last time. Let's go over what's real:

  • real
  • real
  • real
  • hallucinated
  • real"

I went to a conference a few months ago and the very first speaker gave the following advice with a straight face to a room full of professional software engineers: "Your biggest limitation on your productivity is going to be token management, so just buy as many tokens as you can so you won't even have to think about it." And that guy, supposedly, didn't work for OpenAI or Anthropic.

I kind of hope he's at least getting kickbacks because I would rather he be a secret corporate AI shill than just a submissive gimp for dommy mommy AI industry attempting to recruit more paypigs to her flock. At least that would have more dignity.

i always wondered what they are peddling at these AI conferences, we have them almost daily here in the west. im not really surprised they have a hired "spokesman" to do it.

Lulz, amen to that
