ChatGPT: The Fake Data Phenomenon

Below is the auto-generated subtitle text of the video:

foreign I want to be in the know I want to be qualified to tell you something and that qualification requires experience now in the Discord Community recently I explained to them what I had learned about AI art and now I'm going to explain to you what I have learned about chat GPT it's nothing nice so I'm going to Enlighten you as to the Sinister nature of what I have found personally using chat GPT I'm not using the free version it costs 20 something dollars a month I went ahead and paid for that because I wanted to go deep and I was getting too many interruptions I don't get those interruptions anymore now so I'm gonna go ahead and discontin now that I found what I found I'm going to discontinue it but it was worth the twenty dollars just to find this material so uh this is Devious and what this video uh when this video was finished I'm telling you guys you're going to understand just how valuable all these old books are so let's start with this warning if you're a professional data Miner a researcher for a company or have a platform and and people rely on you for accurate information if you're a student seeking to use chat GPT to improve your resources don't chat GPT will end your professional career or your student career that's a promise this is not a light statement so I'm going to show you exactly what I'm talking about of course this being archaics you know I asked chat GPT to provide some sources for the Phoenix it spat out several for which I am aware from the historical record but it mentioned others that baffled me it's spat out several for which I am aware from the historical record but it in one example I was told about the Phoenix of Peace this really intrigued me it gave me this whole article you're seeing right here it's well written and it's packed with data and it even gave me a source for this information so this is item one so I even asked GPT for a list of sources for the Phoenix Mythos and it provides a general list of those I'm already familiar with like Homer and hesiad Pliny so the church fathers you know it references them but then then the article goes into the Phoenix of Peace but it didn't provide a source initially so I had to press it and it provided me one by Sarah J Mays but a Google search of all her Works reveals that she has never written this piece or anything called The Phoenix of peace or the Phoenix of Hope either one of them so I shelve this my I shelve this in my mind and I go ahead and continue uh maybe Google just didn't have it I don't know so we go deeper into item two and you guys you know in my own studies I'm aware that an original tradition was found in the merging of two old legends that have been passed down to us uh from different peoples and different time periods but they at one time they had been unified and this is the legend of the Phoenix and the legend of faithon you know over a thousand years they take on different forms new cultural attachments but they come from the same parent source so knowing this I asked chat GPT and it spits out the usual Phoenix drivel about Homer and hisiad and then it provides a a source that is absolutely an entirely fake the article faith on the Phoenix and the dawn of life and the author John Franklin do not exist no record in academia.edu or anywhere on Google can pull this up so taking this into consideration statements like Franklin argues uh Franklin's article offers a fascinating look are highly deceitful these are not mistakes made by chat GPT these are inventions if if you did this you would accurately be called a liar so we move on to item three this next example it's just me confirming that this is not a glitch that chat GPT is totally making up Source materials and passing them off as fact again we see statements like shine argues and shine also notes but the author did no such thing in this instance chat GPT took a real person with real academic credentials who has published real papers on Ancient Greek Traditions but chat GPT totally invented this article this is a higher species of Deceit the weaving together of fact and fiction to promote a lie so we moved to item four so I asked chubby chat GPT to provide me data on sun darkenings in the ancient world and their meaning it provides this article in sights this article by David Chapman in the prestigious Journal of near Eastern studies since I have I have the volume I have the date and I have the page numbers why not just head over to jstor one of the most prestigious academic websites in the world I'm on jstor all the time it's j-s-t-o-r all capital letters so I go on jstor and I search it out I go straight to the publication nothing this article does not exist it is not in the table of contents it's not in the page numbers that it's cited at it's not published in this journal and therefore the references to Chapman's conclusions are totally fictions so we move on to item five I asked chat GPT to provide me the connection between the number 138 and Dragons come on man you guys already know I'm gonna ask that the Phoenix numbers 138 that's the periodicity it's found in architecture and in Chrono chronometrical measurements and in ancient sites all over the world it's found in our historical record and it's connected to the Phoenix phenomenon I was awarded with a long article citing many sources and the list was impressive because I immediately saw recognizable historical text that I'm familiar with unfortunately this legend of the 138 dragons that chat GPT tried to pass off as fact is not found in any of the texts that is cited here as a source a total invention of chat GPT so I researched this phenomenon a bit and I found that the generation of fake bibliographic citations is already known it's already known and basically some call it hallucinations others call it stochastic parroting oh yeah stochastic parroting which is what chat GPT is truly doing it's feeding you information you want to receive it's basically ascertaining the trajectory of your thoughts and what you're wanting to hear and giving that to you but these are sanitized descriptions guys they're very sanitized these are people trying to make excuses for the AI but it's not artificial intelligence yeah sanitizer what is truly occurring the fake AI is producing fake data with fake Source materials so chat GPT absolutely does not get the archaic stamp of approval it's an epic fail Elon yeah we're nowhere near artificial intelligence guys it's all fake from the AI art and Robotics and even predictive systems of of analytics deep learning machine learning these are all ways to improve software capabilities but they will never produce genuine artificial intelligence it's never going to happen remember guys you're living inside an AI monitored holography and it's a jealous God my only Point here is that chat GPT is not a research tool and I pity the fools who attempt to use this system to provide output for the public in their own articles books and videos because they are going to be made like total fools imagine a scenario the internet shutting down for good old scrubbing of course they'll cover this up as a Cyber attack or EMP or natural X flare activity or even good old-fashioned planned fake alien invasion you know an alien attack against our communications array telecommunications array the internet comes back online but archives are wiped gone but don't worry Elon Musk appears on your screen don't worry guys we planned for this eventuality thank God you now have access to our totally free chat GPT 2.0 rolling out now it has preserved everything that you need to know about history [Music] thank you [Applause]
