<p>How incredibly cool to see young people that are interested and capable of building things! I have a couple of rhetorical questions.<p>How do you expect a language model to see through propaganda and other large-scale misinformation by power/money with a megaphone?<p>How do you expect a computer program that can't reliably determine what letter a word starts with to determine objective truth?<p>I appreciate that you have a passion for the subject, but this tool is fundamentally unable to do what you wish it to do. If your goal is to make money -- keep going forward. Big promises built on lies have made many tech billionaires. If your goal is to combat misinformation you'd be better served by doing it in a different way than relying on a machine.<p>If you're building this at sixteen you have no limits. Don't take this as discouragement towards building things -- take it as a warning against cybernetic totalism. Make the world a better place not through technology that tells humans how to be or how things are; make the world a better place by building technology that adapts itself it human needs. Maybe even build technology that needs humans more than the humans need the technology.</p>

<p>And yet GPT4 still can't reliably tell me if a word contains any given letter.</p>

<p>Simple ID scans are already on their way out.<p>"Liveness checks" where we have to turn on our webcam and let some stranger make a full biometric model of our head to  use basic internet infrastructure is the dystopia we deserve, and it's the one we're gonna get.<p>I hope the "AI" was worth it. Let's see if you can fix this problem you created.</p>
