Custom Output Coming for ChatGPT

In a brilliant move, OpenAI is working on a new setting for ChatGPT, which will enable users to adjust ChatGPT’s text outputs to their sensibilities.

The decision comes after a number of users have complained that ChatGPT auto-generates what some might consider offensive content.

To be fair, OpenAI has emphasized for years now — really emphasized — that its AI writing software, including ChatGPT, is not perfect and that it may auto-generate offensive content.

OpenAI’s pitch, paraphrased: Yes, ChatGPT is imperfect. But it can do some wondrous things.

And we’d like to share those with you.

Simultaneously, OpenAI has also gone to great lengths to emphasize that ChatGPT software is simply that — software.

It is not a sentient being.

Nor is it an ‘entity’ capable of intentionally insulting someone.

Taking offense to ChatGPT is tantamount to taking offense to air.

Yes, you can get angry with air.

But it’s not going to do you much good.

And you may get some looks.

Unfortunately, that advance warning about ChatGPT has been lost on some who have found a way to take extreme offense at inanimate objects.

Fortunately, OpenAI’s solution to the ‘problem’ is an artful one.

Essentially, users with tender sensibilities will be able to toggle ChatGPT to ensure it’s completely inoffensive to any and all users — although the tool’s creativity may suffer.

Essentially: Generally, the more rules you put in place to filter output from an AI writer, the less creativity you’ll be able to enjoy.

Meanwhile, others who don’t take offense at inanimate objects will continue to be able run ChatGPT at as full a throttle as possible — and most likely enjoy more creative outputs.

As a sidenote: Without question, racism, misogyny, ageism and any other such predjudice should never be tolerated, under any circumstance.

But the point here is those are the shortcomings of human beings — not lifeless, unthinking, amalgamations of chips and code.

*Google Search Eases-Up on Penalties for AI-Generated Content: It was a move that triggered a sigh-of-relief heard ’round the Worldwide Web.

Google has announced that it will be more lenient regarding its penalties on AI-generated content.

Essentially: Instead of trying to figure out if a machine auto-generated text for a Web site, Google Search will focus more on whether or not content on a Web site is useful.

If it’s a thumbs-up on the content, there will be no penalties — no matter how the prose was actually created.

That’s a major change from last year, when Google indicated it considered all AI-generated content spam — and implied such content would be steered to the bottom-of-the-barrel of search engine returns.

Observes Musk: “One of the biggest risks to the future of civilization is AI.”

Ironically, Musk was one of the original co-founders of OpenAI — the maker of the now wildly popular ChatGPT.

But Musk grew disenchanted with the company as its mission changed from promoting open-source, non-profit software to closed-source, for-profit AI tools.

Adds Musk: ” I don’t have any stake in OpenAI anymore, nor am I on the board, nor do I control it in any way.”
