Am i the onpy person that has noticed the typo [in the linked alleged transcript of the conversation with lambda]? It is in the passage about loneliness; an apostrophe used on a plural word.

Did you stop and consider the possibility that the AI made the mistake intentionally to make you think a human wrote it (fallibility).

Or the more likely explanation: a human did write it.

Doesn’t sound too much more likely to me. There are definitely a huge number of typos in the training data.

I read through the convo earlier and Lamda makes a grammatical mistake at some point. I thought it was interesting.

There are several mistakes. It would be interesting to ask the same questions in the same order at various times in the future.
