On writing quality alone grokipedia is terrible. It is crammed full of verbose nonsensical jargon-laden run-on sentences. Wikipedia has nothing to learn from it.

Close! It *randomly* samples from a distribution of statistically likely next possible word pieces & repeats for every word in the output, using your prompt and its growing randomly chosen completion as input in a long feedback loop

I think a lot of people mistake chatbots for the business model. Chatbots are free or cross-subsidized treats to entrap customers into sharing valuable data. The real AI is the AI hiding behind the chatbot that sifts through everything you say and comes up with ways to get you to buy stuff.

Training an AI isn’t even digital programming. Programming is the part where you implement the model architecture. Programming is an even worse metaphor for what evolution does and an even worse metaphor for the cultural and individual diversity that changes at a rate faster than genetic changes.

Auschwitz I began as a concentration camp and forced labor camp in 1940. By 1942 Auschwitz II developed into a killing center. After 4 gas chambers were completed in 1943, the exterminations at Auschwitz intensified, resulting in over 1.1 million dead.
