If that's true, why then did it take me 10 seconds yesterday to find an extremely obscure fact of 18th century history with ChatGPT 3.5? I tried Google queries for over an hour, without success. ChatGPT first gave a wrong answer (because my question actually wasn't accurate), but after some clarification answered something that appeared correct, and after 1-2 minutes of further research and validation, I was 100% that it was indeed the correct answer.
> AI systems like ChatGPT are trained with text from Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, and other huge archives of bullshit, alongside plenty of actual facts (including Wikipedia and text ripped off from professional writers). But there is no algorithm in ChatGPT to check which parts are true. The output is literally bullshit.
Well. Any philosopher, mathematician, scientist, or novelist was trained on plenty of actual facts (established works of other people, school learning, experiments) and huge archives of bullshit (individual day-to-day experiences that cannot be called scientific, casual conversations just like Twitter conversations, propaganda, lies). Their output then would also be bullshit, and by extension, everything humanity ever created.
