I mean, if you’re literally telling it exactly what to say, I didn’t think it’s a big deal. It’s when you expect more genuine connection that it becomes a potential problem
I guess maybe you could get it to tell you the same thing in different ways, or generate a conversation where it called you a good girl. It’s just a language machine, so trying to get affirming language on request isn’t gonna mislead you like some uses of AI (fucking google search blurbs 🤬).
That said, I think having a text to speech model call you a good girl would be an even better use of machine learning. Getting an NPC in a video game to say my chosen name was really helpful for me back in the day, and having a model read out custom tailored affirming statements would be really euphoric. Nothing really compares to hearing someone name and gender you correctly.
yesyes butbut i dont consider NPCs as someone >~< u know?
like- yesyes TTS is fun and like- sure, hearing the name u wanna hear is also fun-
but like- idunno… this feels a bit too sad iguess.
id rather have nobody and nothing say a thing rather than programming a computer to do so. but that is infact personal preference.
currently Tomodachi Life is giving me comfys where i can dress up a fictional variant of myself in fun clothing and have her try foods id not wanna try-
It’s less about replacing real people acknowledging you, and more about affirming yourself with a tool. Hearing someone refer to you with your chosen name for the first time simply hits different.

i mean-… if i wanted a computer to tell me that i would just umm…
maria@fedora:~$ echo "good girl" good girl maria@fedora:~$ awwawaw dont say that >///<u see?
using an LM to repeat some words at me is a pretty bad use of a language model in my onion 🧅
one could make the argument:
(in the case of language models that is)
so like - i was kinda assuming u ment the more genuine connection type stuff and i went like
whaaaaa noooout of reflex-ive seen too many peeps fall into LM-rp spirals…

bad game, but okay time-waster.
