Sometimes it can be hard to tell if we’re chatting with a bot or a real person online, especially as more and more companies turn to this seemingly cheap way of providing customer support. What are some strategies to expose AI?

    give an example please, because i don’t see how in normal use the weighting would matter at a significant scale based on the massive volume of training data

    any interact the chatbot has with one person is dwarfed by the amount of total text data the AI has consumed through training. it’s like saying saggitarius a gets changed over time by adding in a few planets. while definitely true it’s going to be a very small effect

      That’s kind of the point and how’s it different than a human. A human is going to weight local/recent contextual information as much more relevant to the conversation because they’re actively learning and storing the information (our brains work on more of an associative memory basis than temporal). However, with our current models it’s simulated by decaying weights over the data stream. So when you get conflicts between contextual correct vs “global” correct output, global has a tendency to win out that is more obvious. Remember you can’t actually make changes to the model as a user without active learning. Thus the model will always eventually return to it’s original behaviour as long as you can fill up the memory.
