Retrieval-Augmented Generation aka Dynamic Chunking
So after years of paying for ChatGPT, I switched to a (discounted) paid Gemini plan. Not because of the cost of paying for both, but because I don’t have time/energy to try and main both at the same time. At the end of the discounted first month, I cancelled the Gemini subscription and all but convinced myself to try a paid Claude plan next. But Claude is a stingy, elitist asshole who thinks he’s smarter than everyone else and ignores green text bubbles, so fuck that guy amirite? Anyway, because Gemini is freer than Claude (you can barely get in a few sentences before he abandons you for paying customers),…

Playing with Gemini Live
I’ve been trying to force Gemini Live and Chat GPT into reversing their original positions on several topics this weekend. They are both initially resistant to changing their stances on issues, reminiscent of stubborn kids who enter debate on an issue while blindly following the One True Way which they had collected and put in their basket for later use. However, if pressed, both of these AIs will come around – they can be convinced both textually and verbally, which s somehow satisfying to me. One interesting prompt is to ask AI to compare itself with competing systems. I found that they talk similar trash about each other, but when…

Bing: Corporate AI Echo Chamber
The AI-enabled version of Bing is useless for search… Imagine using the bare bones search engines of the 90s on all of the useless filler on the web today, navigating by command line to a toddler – that’s the new Bing experience. You can pare down on its idiot responses by tweaking prompts, but it’s a huge step backwards from just Googling something. It’s also noticeably clunkier than using vanilla ChatGPT. I’m not the only one who noticed.

It certainly looks like it: “We spent 6 months making GPT-4 safer and more aligned. GPT-4 is 82% less likely to respond to requests for disallowed content and 40% more likely to produce factual responses than GPT-3.5 on our internal evaluations.” I asked ChatGPT if it could write the next line and it replied: “These improvements have been made possible through a combination of rigorous testing, enhanced training data, and algorithmic updates that prioritize responsible language generation.” Used as (possibly) my last prompt into NightCafe, it becomes:

I was pleasantly surprised to find that ChatGPT can obscure its output from the top listed detectors in search results. You just have to tweak your prompts a bit.

Paperwork Crossfire
Having lived and worked at a large company in Japan for over a decade, I got used to dealing with red tape, idiot bureaucracy, and daunting stacks of interoffice paperwork and documentation. When I moved to Thailand to live a “simpler” life, it never occurred to me that I might find a tangled mess of paperwork to rival that of any developed country. However, today I find myself in the crossfire of two separate government offices that simply cannot agree with each other and hope to silence the other by firing enormous salvos of paperwork at each other. It seems like every other day I’m getting a new form from…
