GPT3, which is to say OpenAI's mode two generations back which was barely good enough to generate text that didn't instantly clock as nonsense, was trained on *billions* of words.

This is like saying you're going to build your own aircraft carrier in your backyard.

People keep insisting you can do this and you can't. If you train a model on only, say, a couple million words (which is basically the sum total of writing in Larian's games) you would not get output that is anywhere near coherent enough.

i will be screaming this until the moment i die.
Or more Marxistly, AI critique reifies a political-economic movement as a technological force. This mystification helps naturalize the disruption of existing labor arrangements while directing critique away from the movement seeking to remake social relations through AI.
