Seeing this I initially let out a laugh until I scrolled down and saw that they trained this using /pol/. Even as cynical as I am I don't think the world deserves a infinite racism machine.

Why not train it using a more whimsical (although still offensive) board? You could probably automate all videogame discussion forevermore using /v/.



I'd rather /g/ for the infinite gentoo memes, but seriously there are multiple boards more interesting than the stormfront containment board


A guy from /g/'s daily programming thread started collecting posts for that exact purpose. Nothing came of it but it's still a hilarious snapshot of that general. Sadly it's dead now.

There's no such thing as a "containment" board. They don't keep anything or anyone contained.


/mlp/ is the only actual containment board.


Someone should make a GPT from the SCP wiki.


More like "magnet"


Containment boards don't work, but my recollection is that /pol/ was nevertheless created with the intention of being a containment board. /n/ and /new/ had already been banned for racism, but it metastasized across the rest of the site. /pol/ was created after banning boards for racism failed.


Probably because /pol/ has the most activity and therefore training data.

> trained this using /pol/

I wasn't expecting the g in GPT to stand for gestapo


Underrated post here


It may be just a question of days until somebody hooks it up back to /r/pol. I bet quality of discussion won't decrease though.


Maybe because it was the dataset the author found


> why not...

Have you ever heard about lulz? The internet hate machine? A true 4chan native will train a 4chan bot with /pol/ and probably with /pol/ only.


The pages are littered with warnings that it's vile, so not sure why the top comment is basically repeating that fact without adding any information.
