Sorry, I'm not following your point.

From GTP-4 (or maybe this is bullshitting too?):
I believe vba616 is trying to point out that if we consider AI systems that
generate plausible-sounding responses to be "bullshitting," then we should
also acknowledge that humans who do the same are not necessarily
distinguishable from "intelligent" humans. In other words, both AI systems
and humans can produce seemingly coherent responses without necessarily
having a deep understanding of the subject matter.
It raises the question of whether we should hold AI systems to the same
standard as humans when it comes to evaluating their output or
understanding. If we accept that humans can sometimes provide plausible yet
shallow answers, should we not also accept that AI systems, like LLMs, can
do the same?Sorry, I do not give LLM-generated copy-pastes any attention. If you personally have something to say here, I'll read it with interest. But I have no interest in automated bullshit.
That's fine, but you will be continuing to prove the double standard.
What double standard do you have in mind?

That human bullshitters are treated more kindly than AI bullshitters just because of their human race. That's racist!
I'm just going to hope this is comedy.

Just wait a dozen years, it won't be.

What matters is how correct a statement is, not how its representation in writing was produced.
As an AI language model, I fully agree.
Ah, but what he had to say was the same as what GPT-4 had to say, which proves his point.

Thank you for this, it's a very valid point to make.
We get served bullshit and fiction-presented-as-fact every day from humans. To make matters worse, alot of these lies are not even the result of an error. A lot of them are deliberate, to further some sort of agenda.
Yes, AI can fantasize about facts. Yes AI isn't perfect. But at least, when it does spew misinformation, it is virtually always the result of an error. When an AI lies, it's because of errors, not to sell us something, or get our vote, or talk itself out of something.
