There is a problem of incompatibility of examples of AI like ChatGPT.
1st: Wikipedia is not primary source, the references are important. In
ChatGPT there are statements but not references to support the statements.
2nd: Bias. In Wikipedia all positions for a problem must be indicated.
ChatGPT is not able to describe the different positions. It takes generally
only one.
3rd: disambiguation. Examples like ChatGPT don't process well the
disambiguation. It means that the system has a weak AI. It looks that in
case of disambiguation, it takes only one meaning.
4th: neutral point of view. Examples like ChatGPT don't give a neutral
answer. Frequently they are trained to take a specific answer.
However I personally consider that investigate in AI makes sense because AI
is doing a lot of progress and Wikimedia projects can benefit.
But ChatGPT is a bad example for Wikimedia projects.
Kind regards

Hi everyone. I have seen some of the reactions to the
narratives generated
by Chat GPT. There is an obvious question (to me at least) as to whether a
Wikipedia chat bot would be a legitimate UI for some users. To that end, I
would have hoped that it would have been developed by the WMF but the
Foundation has historically massively underinvested in AI. That said, and
assuming that GPT Open source licensing is compatible with the movement
norms, should the WMF include that UI in the product?
My other question is around the corpus that Open AI is using to train the
bot. It is creating very fluid narratives that are massively false in many
cases. Are they training on Wikipedia? Something else?
And to my earlier question, if GPT were to be trained on Wikipedia
exclusively would that help abate the false narratives?
This is a significant matter for the community and seeing us step to it
would be very encouraging.
Best regards,
