    Literally that Black Mirror episode, where the woman has a brain implant to cure a brain trauma, and they put ads in her speech because she is on the free subscription tier.

      Not to defend adding ads to chatgpt, but it’s quite different from an implant that turns people into walking ads.

      Also, they weren’t on the free tier, their subscription was already stretching their finances and then they added ads and a new even more expensive tier to avoid the ads.

        Yes, it was the base tier in the episode (not free). You’ll forgive me, it’s been a some time since I watched it.

        It’s not a 1:1 comparison, but you’ll admit that the resemblance is uncanny.

    I suspect that for a 5th grade teacher, something written by OpenAI will be one of the best papers they’ve ever read. Not insightful in any way, but correct spelling, punctuation, paragraphs, vocabulary, etc.

      No because kids are smart enough to add “write it like a kinda dumb 5th grader” to the prompt. So its not just slop its intentionally dumb badly written slop that makes you question if a sentient being wrote this.

    This was either from April or early December. In either case, I’ve never heard this repeated anywhere else since.

    I do not believe their models are good enough to accurately and organically “prefer” one result over another. Not to say they won’t try, just that it sounds futile. How do you even train a model to pick advertisers over non-advertisers? Feels like they’re just going to start shipping prepackaged “assistants” with a big, stupid list of company sugar daddies to fluff up.
