Amy DentataLLMs will never be what they're currently advertised as. They are not answer machines. They are not search engines. They do not think. They do not provide data.All they do is generate text via statistical weights. They do not generate thoughts, or information. Just characters in sequence. They cannot be stopped from "hallucinating." Because they do not "hallucinate." They just generate text. Whether that text reflects reality or not is only ever due to coincidence.These companies won't tell you this, because they want your money. So they lie, which primes you to accept more BS from the automated BS machine.<a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LLM</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a>

Amy DentataEvery story where someone is driven mad by ChatGPT begins with lies about the technology, what it is, and what it does—lies that originate from OpenAI itself.The very framing of "having a conversation with a computer" is artificial, deceitful, and constructed by the company in order to turn statistical text generation into a consumer-facing product. Deceit lies at the core of what OpenAI does with this technology. The people being "fooled" by ChatGPT are first fooled by OpenAI. People are being actively coached—by real, live human beings—into being easily manipulated by this software.<a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LLM</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a>

Paco Hope #resistI see this announcement from <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a> in the same way I see casinos funding gambling cessation orgs. Those orgs genuinely do good work, but they’re also working against their funding source, so you wonder how earnestly they work. And if they were effective to the point of harming the gambling companies, would they keep getting funding?Same here with OpenAI’s ‘gentle reminders’. Kinda like “The Surgeon General says smoking is bad for you. But cigarette cartons are buy one get one on two-fer Tuesday!”From the article: ‘As part of OpenAI’s announcement on Monday, it said it was introducing measures to promote “healthy use” of ChatGPT, including “gentle reminders during long sessions to encourage breaks.”’How long will they keep those reminders going, if the reminders actually work and cause people to use the product less?<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/08/technology/ai-chatbots-delusions-chatgpt.html?unlocked_article_code=1.ck8.FEwL.MLb9ajaocyTx&smid=url-share" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/08/technology/ai-chatbots-delusions-chatgpt.html?unlocked_article_code=1.ck8.FEwL.MLb9ajaocyTx&smid=url-share</a>

Miguel Afonso Caetano"To borrow some technical terminology from the philosopher Harry Frankfurt, “ChatGPT is bullshit.” Paraphrasing Frankfurt, a liar cares about the truth and wants you to believe something different, whereas the bullshitter is utterly indifferent to the truth. Donald Trump is a bullshitter, as is Elon Musk when he makes grandiose claims about the future capabilities of his products. And so is Sam Altman and the LLMs that power OpenAI’s chatbots. Again, all ChatGPT ever does is hallucinate — it’s just that sometimes these hallucinations happen to be accurate, though often they aren’t. (Hence, you should never, ever trust anything that ChatGPT tells you!)My view, which I’ll elaborate in subsequent articles, is that LLMs aren’t the right architecture to get us to AGI, whatever the hell “AGI” means. (No one can agree on a definition — not even OpenAI in its own publications.) There’s still no good solution for the lingering problem of hallucinations, and the release of GPT-5 may very well hurt OpenAI’s reputation."<a href="https://www.realtimetechpocalypse.com/p/gpt-5-is-by-far-the-best-ai-system" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.realtimetechpocalypse.com/p/gpt-5-is-by-far-the-best-ai-system</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LLMs</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Chatbots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chatbots</a>

Aber euer Artikel leider auch ein bisschen. "Es wird mit reduzierten Fehlerquoten und mehr Zuverlässigkeit beworben, was durch erste Versuche aber vorerst nicht bestätigt werden konnte (siehe Bild)." Dass das LLM aufgrund seiner technischen Voraussetzungen (Arbeit mit Tokens, die ein Wort lang oder länger sind) hier immer noch falsche Ergebnisse hervorbringt, widerlegt ja nicht, dass es insgesamt weniger Fehler macht als vorher.

Miguel Afonso Caetano"I believe GPT-5 is part of a larger process happening in generative AI — enshittification, Cory Doctorow’s term for when platforms start out burning money offering an unlimited, unguarded experience to attract their users, then degrade and move features to higher tiers as a means of draining the blood from users. With the launch of GPT-5, OpenAI has fully committed to enshittifying its consumer and business subscription products, arbitrarily moving free users to a cheaper model and limiting their ability to generate images, and removing the ability to choose which model you use in its $20, $35 and “enterprise” subscriptions, moving any and all choice to its “team” and $200-a-month “pro” subscriptions. OpenAI’s justification is an exercise in faux-altruism, framing “taking away all choice” as a “real-time router that quickly decides which [model] to use.” ChatGPT Plus and Team members now mostly have access to two models — GPT-5 and GPT-5-Thinking — down from the six they had before. This distinction is quite significant. Where users once could get hundreds of messages a day on OpenAI’s o4-mini-high and o4-mini reasoning models, GPT-5 for ChatGPT Plus subscribers offers 200 reasoning (GPT-5-thinking) messages a week, with 80 GPT-5 messages every 3 hours which allow you to ask it to “think” about its answer, shoving you over to an undisclosed reasoning model. This may seem like a good deal, OpenAI is likely putting you on the cheapest model whenever it can in the name of “the best choice.”"<a href="https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-enshittification-of-generative-ai/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-enshittification-of-generative-ai/</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GPT5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GPT5</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Enshittification</a>
