there is… a lot going on here–and it’s part of a broader trend which is probably not for the better and speaks to some deeper-seated issues we currently have in society. a choice moment from the article here on another influencer doing a similar thing earlier this year, and how that went:
Siragusa isn’t the first influencer to create a voice-prompted AI chatbot using her likeness. The first would be Caryn Marjorie, a 23-year-old Snapchat creator, who has more than 1.8 million followers. CarynAI is trained on a combination of OpenAI’s ChatGPT-4 and some 2,000 hours of her now-deleted YouTube content, according to Fortune. On May 11, when CarynAI launched, Marjorie tweeted that the app would “cure loneliness.” She’d also told Fortune that the AI chatbot was not meant to make sexual advances. But on the day of its release, users commented on the AI’s tendency to bring up sexually explicit content. “The AI was not programmed to do this and has seemed to go rogue,” Marjorie told Insider, adding that her team was “working around the clock to prevent this from happening again.”
Eh, all chat bots trained on internet data become horny in the same way that virtually all AI is racist. It’s merely a reflection of the data it’s trained on, but a lot of people think they can magically control it by putting ‘safeguards’ after it’s been trained. The constant game of cat and mouse with gpt3/4 and prompts to getting it to ignore safeguards are proof this doesn’t work.
You can also curate the training data so that it’s not problematic, but then you are biasing the model in other ways.
Impossible at scale. Data is always biased, it’s a matter of tradeoff
