Just remember, it can, and will, always get worse!

Yeah exactly. Loving the dude's mental gymnastics to avoid the simplest answer and instead spin it into moralising about promptfondling more good

Sorry, as mentioned elsewhere in the thread I can’t open links. Looks like froztbyte explained it though, thanks!

Actually I’m finding this quite useful. Do you mind posting more of the article? I can’t open links on my phone for some reason

what is this “alignment” you speak of? I’ve never heard of this before

video eventsAh you see, this is proof that FSD is actually AGI. Elon told the FSD that it needs to maximise tesla profits. The FSD accessed a camera pointing at a tesla earnings report and realised that it could increase the value of tesla’s carbon credit scheming by taking out trees, hence the events of the video

In the current chapter of “I go looking on linkedin for sneer-bait and not jobs, oh hey literally the first thing I see is a pile of shit”

text in imageCan ChatGPT pick every 3rd letter in "umbrella"?

You'd expect "b" and "I". Easy, right?

Nope. It will get it wrong.

Why? Because it doesn't see letters the way we do.

We see:

u-m-b-r-e-l-l-a

ChatGPT sees something like:

"umb" | "rell" | "a"

These are tokens — chunks of text that aren't always full words or letters.

So when you ask for "every 3rd letter," it has to decode the prompt, map it to tokens, simulate how you might count, and then guess what you really meant.

Spoiler: if it's not given a chance to decode tokens in individual letters as a separate step, it will stumble.

Why does this matter?

Because the better we understand how LLMs think, the better results we'll get.
