His first opinion would be what the US tells him.
There are humans behind AI and unless you know exactly who they are, AI is not worth its weight in gold.
Javlar!
The typical pattern for leaders is to get “second opinions” from advisors who tell them whatever they want to hear, so… maybe asking the equivalent of a magic 8 ball is a marginal improvement?
Let’s be honest though the majority of politicians are so terrible at their job, that this might actually be one of the rare occurrences where AI actually improves the work. But it is very susceptible to unknown influences.
They aren’t terrible, they make it look like that bcs they do evil things and the public is not who they really work for.
They know what they’re doing and it’s easier to get away with it when it looks like incompetence or mistakes.That’s the big issue. If it was only about competence, I think throwing dice might yield better results than what many politicians are doing. But AI isn’t throwing dice but instead reproduces what the creators of the AI want to say.
Depending on the AI, it will conclude that he ought to buy a new phone charger, deport all the foreigners, kill all the Jews or rewrite his legislation in Perl. It’s hard to say without more information.
Not much different than real politicians then.
Real politicians would use Cobol, but yes.
Creators of AI don’t quite have the technology to puppeteer their AI like this.
They can selects the input, they can bias the training, but if the model isn’t going to be lobotomized coming out
then they can’t really bend it toward any particular one opinionI’m sure in the future they’ll be able to adjust advertising manipulation in real time but not yet.
What is really sketchy is states and leaders relying on commercial models instead of public ones
I think states should train public models and release them for the public good
if only to undermine big tech bros and their nefarious influenceYou don’t have to modify the model to parrot your opinion. You just have to put your stuff into the system prompt.
You can even modify the system prompt on the fly depending on e.g. the user account or the specific user input. That way you can modify the responses for a far bigger subject range: whenever a keyword of a specific subject is detected, the fitting system prompt is loaded, so you don’t have to trash your system prompt full of off-topic information.
This is so trivially simple to do that even a junior dev should be able to wrap something like that around an existing LLM.
Edit: In fact, that’s exactly how all these customized ChatGPT versions work.
It’s weird for a head of state to consult their mentally challenged imaginary friend?
William MacKenzie King, the longest serving Prime Minister in Canada used to commune with spirits via psychic mediums including those of his dead dogs. It was only revealed after his death but was a big part of his life.
I agree it’s weird.
Bad news friend. The number of atheist heads of state is surprisingly low.
Meanwhile the American president uses no intelligence at all. Artificial or otherwise
It’s literally a cult.
You can see it on this government policies
It surely can’t hurt, if it’s to sanity check your highly paid advisors…
Oh no man does research of course Americans are upset here lmao
Asking an llm isn’t research, he might as well have been consulting a magic 8 ball.
Sounds like you have a skill issue
europe is fucking doomed
Because of this one incident. Good how you figured it out. So much smarter than the rest. … Get. out.
What a treasonist piece of shit.
