Silly to use Reddit for training?

Anyone else think that training AI models on content from Reddit is a dumb idea? I participate in a bunch of subreddits, and you can find interesting/useful information in some of them, but 80% of the content across the whole platform is wacky. I foresee a lot of glue pizzas in our future.

Agreed, I think this was a strange move from Google, at least to the degree they seem to have implemented it.

What’s confusing to me is that some of those weird results seem to come from a single Reddit comment. I would have thought they programmed it to try and find the information based on a variety of sources.

Exactly. My understanding of how LLMs work is that they build catalogs of words and context to derive information. Glue pizza is funny, but kinda scary if you think about someone asking a medical question or something important.

I agree. Reddit also seems to have far-left political views, AI should be more neutral.

Simon,
I work in Commercial Real Estate and I think the rabbit could help revolutionize this industry. Over the next few weeks I plan on using the lam function to teach my rabbit to post listings, reply to emails, reply to listing questions, post articles, book showing times and hopefully more. Do you think the R1 is capable of this?

??? From what I’ve heard, the LAM function won’t be available for quite a while still

Thats upsetting, only reason I ordered it was because of that function
