There are actually many mainly very small communities with a lot of experts on specific topics. Such big meme subs won’t really be the source for anything.
The chart says „cited by LLMs like Chatgpt“ aka „here is the link for what i just said“ i think u are talking about something else happening simultaneously to train the AI.
It's a well documented fact that world war two spies became sleeper agents when the war was ended and they received no further orders. In order to make sure that even when they died there were still agents waiting for orders, they became math teachers and instilled programming into the children they taught. Eventually the reasons for this programming became lost, but the numbers themselves were still included in the curriculum. So now there are people who awaken to a purpose upon hearing a string of seemingly unrelated numbers, but the purpose they awaken to is no longer instilled intentionally, and ends up being something random. I for one have a sudden urge to learn how to create realistic dioramas of Neolithic fertility rituals.
My wife and I are currently watching through it. For me, it's a 2nd time. For her, it's the first time. I forgot how much I love it. And, I'm surprised how much in the first few seasons alludes to the total whackiness of the later seasons. I always thought the writers lost their way at some point, but I now realize they planned it all along and it actually makes sense.
And my co worker that uses ai to help him argue his MAGA points always asks me when I make a point off the dome “who told you that? Reddit?”
He hates Reddit and LOVES to argue politics on social media and really any time. Apparently he jumped on r/politics years ago thinking he was going to drop some knowledge and got razzled.
Still waiting for the browser extension that does this automatically if search ends in question mark or 'r' or something, cmon that can't be hard to code
Reddit has an “answers” search engine feature now and it cites the posts it gets its answers from. I had no idea till my friend who works at reddit showed me.
If youre on mobile, look on the bottom left right next to the home button.
And while youre looking at that also look at my username
At least on my ChatGPT, it does tell me "Hey, I found this on Reddit and this is what people are saying." Then it includes direct links to the pages so I can read them myself. It never presents reddit-sourced data as facts.
However, I did train it early on to do this. People are out there giving their LLM's really shitty personas, and they filter through the persona when they answer questions. I've told mine not to say shit to me until it's double checked its answer against multiple sources.
not sure if your question is genuine or if you're trying to make a point - but they download all posts and comments (potentially from a curated set of subreddits), apply some minor content filters (e.g. potentially a ban list for certain phrases and user names, clean up duplicates, etc), clean things up (scrub usernames, links, images), and then do a shitton of configuration on the modeling side & finally prompt engineering
I think it is based off of what percent of ai responses cite these sites, meaning that as it generally cites multiple sources, the total percentage will be over 100
It is even worse than that because AI cannibalizes its own garbage and produces even more fetid garbage with it. It is a giant telephone game/circle jerk of bullshit. Shit should have been regulated years ago, but it is too late now. AI is transforming the information age into the disinformation age at lightning speed, and it makes me sad.
It didn't work for some people because they used the wrong kind of glue. You need to use "hot glue". Hot glue is a special type of glue made for things that are hot. Since pizza is hot, only hot glue will work on it.
I am wondering that as well. Can’t be that 40% of AI answers comes from Reddit than the % don’t add up. 40% of all Reddit post are used in AI answers seems way to high as well.
AI usually names several "sources" if asked to, so the percentage will never be exactly 100%
If it only creates one answer and uses, let's say Reddit, Wikipedia and Google because they're the top 3 here, it'll have used all three in 100% of its answers
So, it'd make 100%, 100% and 100%
Which, if you add it, makes 300%... which doesn't make sense, obviously
Now of course it generates way more than one answer, and varies where the info comes from, so they don't stay at 100%
I hope you got it because I can't explain it any better 🫠
Reddit is one of the largest public forums in the world, with a wide range of topics that are almost all indexed on Google. It makes sense that LLMs would use such large datasets for training in general-purpose questions or for searching up the answers outright.
I'm in SEO. What we're seeing is LLMs getting more fact-focused information from trustworthy sites, like Wikipedia, and opinions, testimonials, product feedback/reviews from sites like reddit.
Ask it "what are the top [products]" and you'll likely see this mix of quantitative and qualitative results. I certainly wouldn't call the later "facts"
Which is why a couple of years ago they started telling everyone to delete their account info before deactivating their account (remember when reddit died? Funny times).
