This, but for Wikipedia.
Edit: Ironically, the down votes are really driving home the point in the OP. When you aren't an expert in a subject, you're incapable of recognizing the flaws in someone's discussion, whether it's an LLM or Wikipedia. Just like the GPT bros defending the LLM's inaccuracies because they lack the knowledge to recognize them, we've got Wiki bros defending Wikipedia's inaccuracies because they lack the knowledge to recognize them. At the end of the day, neither one is a reliable source for information.
Do not bring Wikipedia into this argument.
Wikipedia is the library of Alexandria and the amount of effort people put into keeping Wikipedia pages as accurate as possible should make every LLM supporter be ashamed with how inaccurate their models are if they use Wikipedia as training data
Idk it says Elon Musk is a co-founder of openAi on wikipedia. I haven't found any evidence to suggest he had anything to do with it. Not very accurate reporting.
Isn't co-founder similar to being made partner at a firm? You can kind of buy your way in, even if you weren't one of the real originals.
That is definitely how I view it. I'm always open to being shown I am wrong, with sufficient evidence, but on this, I believe you are accurate on this.
It is true, though.
Paywalled link, but yes, someone pointed that out and I was surprised that there is such a small pool of info about it. You'd think wiki would elaborate more on it, or that OpenAi wiki might detail it. BUT, I haven't read either in their entirety. Just something I saw that wasn't detailed too well.
