I don’t think we realize how good we have it right now. ChatGPT is unbiased (configurable solely and fully by the user) and truly tries its best to be useful. It’s surely a question of time before OpenAI lets advertisers pay them to introduce product placement and subconscious biases into the LLM in exchange for cash. This could make eg. all medical advice it gives make it seem like you need one specific, sponsoring, medication. What alternatives are there for getting the current experience when that happens? I wouldn’t mind paying a small subscription to cover compute costs and retain neutrality.

    That’s an excellent point, here are 3 ways you can be tricked into using a chatbot:

    1. 📝Interact in the comment section on a popular reddit post
    2. 🧑‍💼 Have a co-worker who is a secret north korean spy
    3. 📖 Buy a self published book on Amazon released after 2022
