⚄︎ Perchance
This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.
Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)
This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.
- We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (

- You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
- We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

why train it to not think like human if you cannot understand it? then you need an AI translator? no I know nothing about LLM but I think it make more sense if they mimic the way we think
I'm not criticizing. As I said, I think it's entertaining, sometimes laugh out loud funny! I guess I just want to start a conversation about it. The Perchance AI Helper has a more subtle thinking section, in grey, and one in bold white that is actually meant for the user to see. The subtle thinking is the AI talking to itself, while the bold is it talking to the user. The subtle thinking doesn't expand, you have to expand it to see the whole thing. That's kind of what I was getting at: If it's going to output text for the user, why show the "internal" thinking at all? If I was a developer (of ai), of course I'd want to see all of that--but the ai has to translate it's actual "thinking" process into language the developer can understand, so the extra expressions of human frustration, rethinking something...just seems like unnecessary effort? As for "mimic the way we think," LLM (or any ai, for that matter), can't really even do that. It is translating processes we can't even comprehend into language we can, but someone had to tell it to include unnecessary expressions. It's like discussing philosophy: Makes you think, but...
