Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

This might sound stupid, but this ai's output sounds a lot like gpt. In fact, if you just use the API, gpt doesn't really mind answering toxic or bad questions, so long as the output didn't violate thier rules.

I'm not saying Elon is using open ai, but maybe they've trained on gpt-4 output?

They did.

The issue here is that the web is full of ChatGPT outputs, so we accidentally picked up some of them when we trained Grok on a large amount of web data. This was a huge surprise to us when we first noticed it.

Elon: "I created OpenAI! It only exists because of me!" Also Elon: "I created this new AI, which I copied from OpenAI, because it was... mine all along?"
