Answer, No Answer, Or I Don't Know

Ask ChatGPT "Who run Barter Town?"
The next war, is fought by developers and hardware experts. And all it need to do is blow up one factory, and we loose 10 years of development. ONE factory, to throw us back 10 years. ASML. Right now they run Barter town, but then, we already know how that one ends :)

If there was an obscure question that had one (wrong) answer, and people (somehow) started asking that same question, would AI respond with the wrong answer until it became "the" answer?

Yes I think so, there is this metaphor of a stochastic parrot [https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3442188.3445922\](https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3442188.3445922) And there is also a discussion about this metaphor on Twitter ... :sigh:

Heh, and I believe it? Nope!

Yes. False answers are much harder to correct than to take a true answer and corrupt it to a false one that everyone believes.

This is the answer ChatGPT gave to me: "As a machine learning model, AI is not capable of intentionally providing incorrect answers. AI is designed to make predictions based on patterns it has learned from the data it was trained on, and it will provide the answer that it believes to be the most accurate based on that information. If the model has been trained on inaccurate data or has not been trained sufficiently, it may produce incorrect answers. However, this would not be intentional, but rather a result of limitations in the training data and the algorithm. It's important to ensure that the training data used to build an AI model is of high quality and diverse, in order to minimize the risk of producing incorrect or biased outputs. Additionally, regular testing and evaluation of AI models can help to identify any inaccuracies or biases in their predictions, allowing them to be corrected over time."

Yes. But so do humans, and not just for obscure stuff. 40 countries help Turkey; 3 countries help Syria. What do you think "religion" is? Ghosts, Angels? Ask ChatGPT for me which religion is "correct" and post me the answer :D If you want a real riot, ask it who blew up the gaslines to Germany.

Addressing that seriously...no. If it is that obscure then "right" is no longer meaningful because no one would ask it. And no one would care if it was wrong anyways.
What was obscure becomes clear. Your flat earth would have stayed flat.

There are no answers anywhere online. There are only likely and unlikely hypothesis. So, basically, it doesn't matter. A wrong answer is still an hypothesis worth testing.
Not if it involves drain cleaner.

It's a worthy answer ... but too long for most. I also think, not everyone gets the same answer: testing the questioner is part of the "learning" process.

I took obscure to mean of little interest. So for example 'what is that fungus on Will's toe'. Now if 'Will' is the King of England then many more people are going to be interested than if Will is just the guy that lives down the block from me. If many people are interested then there will be many answers for the AI to look at. If very few are interested then far fewer answers. But as well a wrong answer in that case means it has no impact.
