I might be completely wrong about this, but as it stands the data to build safe and reliable AI doesn't exist: scraping reddit to train an AI won't produce quality results, nore has scraping the wider internet. Building a bullshit generator whose usefulness diminishes by the day and marketing it as general purpose AI isn't a sign we're heading for a bright future: it's a sign we are in the midst of an AI bubble, and it's only a matter of time before it pops...

@jmaris Speaking as someone who's actually tried to use things like ChatGPT to speed up coding simple and relatively obvious tasks, it's ridiculously obvious that it's trained substantially on StackExchange, without even the to ability to distinguish the problem code from the solution code -- where the latter is even present -- nor bad answers from good ones -- ditto.
