    I'm pretty sure that dicknose thing is the meanest thing i've said.

    Sometimes you really live up to your acronym of Mean, Rude and Obnoxius (MRO). Keeps things interesting lol...

    Lonewolf

    my name is -oblivious- but i used the name mroblivious1bmf to secure
    the username with email and social media sites because it was unique.
    then on irc i trimmed it down to mro just to make it easier to type. And....anybody i was mean to had it coming. but a lot of time i was just fucking with them.

    same thing goes with everything i do online. if someone thinks they are an internet detective and try to look me up they only see what
    i want them to see. my real usernames are far different.

    Have any of you guys played around with Google's "NotebookLM", specifically the "Generate a Conversation" function that simulates two podcasters discussing shit?

    Nice, now we don't have to create podcasts, and we can create LLM podcast
    listeners? :)

    This is pretty interesting.

    "The usernames hint at the potential for conflict..."

    Today I decided to point it at my dove-general.sdt file, that hasn't
    been purged since mid/late 2021. The AI gets a bit confused over
    certain things (ie it thinks "DoveNet" is the BBS, and that it's only
    been around since 2021) but that could be corrected if I improved my prompts when generating the conversation (I basically just said
    "summarize this archive of bbs posts").

    How did it read the .sdt file? Or did you export it to text?

    I'd like to see what exactly was inputted into the engine.

    Like I said, I just pointed it to my "dove-general.sdt" file from my bbs. The first entry from that file was Sun Oct 24 2021 (I just checked now) and the last entry would have been 30 minutes or so before I made yesterday's post. NotebookLM was rejecting the file (with no reason) so I used a text splitter to split it into 10 parts, then uploaded each part without issue.

    As for my prompt, you don't need to use one, you can just click "generate conversation" but I think I used a custom prompt where i just said "this is an archive of messages from DoveNet from 2021 to present, summarize" (or something very similar, I can't recall my exact prompt). Prompts are limited to 500 characters.

    so you want to summarize 2.5 years of random posts? i'm sure it crapped itself. ---

    i was messing with it uploading printouts from msg areas and
    website urls to sway the opinion of the AI.

    i'm not sure where this came from but there's one section
    where it says "MRO: Champion of Synchronet and DOVE-Net"

    i guess this is kinda new but there's this guy running an instagram,etc page with a woman. her boobs are slightly different sizes in every video and something just doesn't look right. then he has an onlyfans. there's also a bot that replies to people. people were calling him out on the stuff. if you have a good enough eye it's obvious there's real time ai doctoring in the videos. it's beyond filters

    there's also this joke page on fb for a fictional gas station. one of their workers is all AI. https://i.imgur.com/hTzhL0H.png

    How did it read the .sdt file? Or did you export it to text?

    It looks like the posts are saved as plain text in the .sdt files, with some things in between the posts.

    It'd be better to export the message text, with headers (metadata). A lot of context would be lost from just parsing the .sdt file.

    i just do that to piss off nick andre. he's a lower case guy (short) so i do it for him.

    I didn't hear that part in the 'podcast'. It's not in the transcript. where do you see this?

    Never heard of you. I wouldn't call it hillarious. it's just AI junk.
    the dicknose remark was funny because I made it.

    I don't use Notebook LLM or any LLM. Ever. It ain't ever gonna do any worthwhile research.
