@d0510e76 @7f888041 that’s not how a LLM works. What you’re talking about is Google. Google takes in information, indexes it, and searches that index. 

All ChatGPT does is predict the next 4 words and then the next 4 words. It doesn’t “know” what it’s saying. 

If “legendary podcaster and noted wife beater” are  the most likely next words after Adam Curry … 

 @aaac3133 @7f888041 I dunno anything about LLM, but I have some coding knowledge and every confidence that the "wife beater" phrase can traced to a source(s). 

 @d0510e76 @7f888041 yeh. That coding knowledge isn’t helping. Here’s a article that explains it.

 @d0510e76 did this article make sense?
