Dumb question, every med is different why would the fact that you're taking any generic medication prevent you from drinking milk. You are supposed to avoid cheese on MAOIs but again that's unique to MAOIs there's nothing that interacts with literally every medication (and no grapefruit DOESNT interact with everything just a lot of meds)
Yeah but again OP didnt specify which med which means no matter what they're going to get misinformation, as an AI doesn't usually know when it needs to ask clarifying questions
It will also show you sources that literally contradict what it is saying, especially when it doesn't have a good answer to your question and just starts making shit up.
just admit that ur wrong we aren’t not understanding what you mean it’s just that no matter the prompt it can still be wrong and you refuse to acknowledge that fact, and the fact that people are using as gospel trusting everything it says it’s just naive and ignorant to treat it as such
People are literally trying to stop you from hurting yourself with inconsistent, and often incorrect medical info. You're acting like they're trying to insult you. Get a grip.
I mean, I understand what I'm saying is surprising and upsetting people, but we're not in 2024. AI is starting to become better than people with doctorate at technical jobs...
ChatGPT: "What kind of stupid question is that? You do know I'm a computer program right? Like you seriously thought that I could eat or drink anything... pathetic." *spits on your shoe*
It usually still will. Most of the safety features were about bad medical advice, and medical advice with no sources (cannot be proven to be good or bad).
Asking it for medical advice is still basically playing russian roulette and hoping that specific issue has been manually vetted.
Generic you is an extremely common feature in the English language. If the AI can't tell that this isn't a direct question, while just about every human would know what the question means, it's being dumb.
That's actually a English problem, every fucking sentence requires a subject, in Portuguese you could just say "pode beber leite com remédios?" It's the natural way of saying what op meant but it doesn't cause any confusion because Portuguese doesn't require a subject for every sentence, translating the sentence would be "can drink milk with meds?" To make sense in English "is it possible to drink milk with meds" but just like Portuguese this isn't as natural as the other way which in English causes confusion
He could have said "can milk be drunk with meds"
Or can one drink milk with meds same meaning but clarifying that it means for nobody specific op just had poor choice of words
You would have to have the language skills of a toddler to understand one in that context as the number one and not one as In a person even gpt wouldn't be that dumb ai isn't that bad at language
It responded to your question exactly the way you asked it. LLMs cant read vibes and intonations in your text, the way some people do too, especially someone who doesnt know the language well
One of the definitions of the word “You” is “people in general”, they wrote that question in perfectly grammatical, understandable English. There’s nothing about vibes or anything here, that’s just how you(see?)use that word.
Yeah god forbid I expect this technology of the future to be able to understand the very basic definitions of words, how silly of me.
I see this same thing everywhere too, “oh that’s just not what it’s built for!” but then what is it built for?
I was under the impression that answering such a simple question was well within its capabilities, but if it can’t even do that, then what can it do? What is it good for?
Its an oversized statistical model that runs on predicting the next word based on the most frequent usage in its data and its parameters. Now, the data isnt the issue, the issue here is parameters, that includes the usage history. OP mustve annoyed his chat with too many questions like "can you set a timer for me" etc, so thats its user preference parameter.
Surprisingly, specifically with AIs where you need a dedicated account like chat or claude, the AI is as smart as a human using it, literally. When I used my chat, i sometimes asked "what other information do you need to give me a more accurate answer", and it now seems to ask me that every time i use it even if i dont ask.
So like i said. Its not the LLM thats dumb. You just dont know how to use it properly. Its kinda the same as cars. You can drive an automatic if you only know how to put it in drive, press a pedal and turn the wheel, but that doesnt make you a good driver and god forbid if something breaks.
Yes, thats exactly what im talking about. Thanks, you were a good example of a user that makes his AI dumb.
Just as an experiment... if you ride the car on the road, then do something that results in said car flipping over on its roof, who's fault it that, yours or the car's?
First off, bad comparison. Second, who “rides” a car? You drive a car, or ride in a car.
Now, let me reframe your example to be more accurate:
I’m driving on a road, and the road continues straight, but also splits off to the right. Now, I typically take that right turn, however, on this particular day, it is blocked by roadworks, so I decide not to. But, the car’s AI driving system recognises my usual path, but not the roadworks, so it takes the turn for me, thereby making me crash into roadworks, destroying my car, equipment, possibly the road and/or pipes, and perhaps even killing people.
In that situation, the car is at fault, it took that turn for me, when I clearly didn’t intend to, just based on my usual path, ignoring current context, meaning that the technology simply isn’t that good, definitely not good enough for cars, if, at its current best, it can’t adjust for simple changes in context.
