Edit to add: I also found someone who recorded a voice chat of the same thing. This isn't that someone uploaded a song, or that AI didn't actually process the file. These models really are this sycophantic:

    My plan, if I’m ever forced to use it for work or whatever, is to have a Claude.md file that says stuff like

    • you are not my friend
    • you are not a person
    • you aren’t even a “you”
    • you are a weighted random number generator built with plagiarism
    • do not ever, EVER, pretend otherwise

    So like League or PoE players?

    I find it interesting that almost all the beloved AI characters in sci-fi have personalities ranging from 'a little bit snarky' to 'raging asshole'. Given the tendency of media to influence to aesthetics of actual tech products that follow, ten years ago I would have predicted that an AI assistant would be given a personality along the lines of Cortana (Halo) or Jarvis (iron man). But somehow half a dozen companies in fierce competition with each other all decided that the right move was to go with more-sycophantic-c3p0.

    "Atmospheric" I mean, not any atmosphere I want to be in.

    Oh fuck, this gives me the idea to (locally) train an ai on fart noises and tell it its a way of communication to learn

    Quiet city montage... lol.

    I'm old enough to remember an April Fools Day bit Adult Swim once did where every show just had consistent, random fart sounds including serious anime like Ghost in the Shell. I'm certain this LLM would approve of such a work of (f)art.

    I don't know if I'll ever find it again, but there's a "restored" version of that GiTS episode up on the internet archive. Someone took a bluray copy of the video and audio, and mixed in the relevant fart sounds from the audio of a VHS recording of the adult swim edit that was tracked down.

    It's the same stuff if you ask it to help you master a foreign language in dialogue mode

    • Help me practicing English pronunciation"

    • Sure thing! Now say "travel"

    • *user just belches in the mic*

    • great job! You really aced the accent!

    The reality is that it is a next word prediction machine. There probably aren't any examples in the training data where people are writing music reviews on something that isn't music. It probably interprets the sound as best as it can as "music" (and the best it can do this is likely very bad in the first place), and then, since the prompt was about reviewing music, it uses next word prediction to write a music review, which of course turns out looking like a typical music review. It's not really interpreting the sound as "not music" especially since you told it it IS music.

    True, but the principle behind the post is the beauty here. When not using the API, it costs these companies an unsustainable amount of money to make their models listen to fart sounds. I don't use any AI myself, but I support anyone who wants to abuse the flat monthly subscription to make a company burn through money so that a plagiarism model can praise fart sounds.

    He lied, it was a single fart from him lasting 37 seconds. slow clap

    I asked it for a realistic bid for a house, I sent the same text 3 as with 3 different numbers I was thinking of and it told me pretty much the same thing for all of them. I then called it out about it and only then did I receive a decent answer.

    I wonder if they actually linked it to an algorithm that analyses the sound that is looking for certain patterns or something, and that is why you get the "atmosphere piece" thing.

    According to their tech/marketing papers, it's supposedly multi-modal, encoding audio to tokens.

    yeah but that doesn't mean anything, does it? I don't think they just tokenize the raw audio, that wouldn't make sense, right?

    Well, if it were my farts it nailed the "bedroom/DIY texture" portion of the assessment.

    Now I wonder what if you name the file farts.

    Everyone knows that the only acceptable use of AI is makinh kung fu videos with cats.
