    6:06 I have an anecdote about that.
    I had an encounter with a dude on a discord server saying to everyone that he was fluent in japanese and was living in Japan for 5 years. I was interested in practicing japanese so I started to chat with him a bit, but his sentences felt weird and overly polite (the first sentence he said was : 私は元気で、あなたは?) that's when I suspected he was using an AI. I tricked him by saying I couldn't understand polite japanese and asked him to speak casually, which he was unable to do, then I wrote very very unnatural sentences and asked him if he could spot my mistakes because I wanted to improve my skills, he pretended that everything was good. I called him out and he left the server.

    • @mitsuhashii

      @@sune9578 It’s because it’s unnatural to ask people if they’re 元気 in Japanese unless they’re sick. It’s not really something that Japanese people say, unlike what the textbooks want you to believe. Maybe it’s because having the “how are you” from English will make Japanese look less scary, but it’s more like “are you well?” for a sick person (お元気ですか? is a common thing that beginners say.) Also, starting a sentence like that with 私は is unnatural. In addition to that, that usage of で is extremely weird. While yes, you could translate it as “I’m well, and you are?”, it’s not something anyone who is actually fluent in Japanese & living in Japan for 5 years would say. Definitely plausible that an AI would write a sentence like that.

    @fmaylinch 11 місяців тому +9

    For those learning Japanese: I have been using GPT and it's an amazing tool, if used correctly.
    Let me explain how GPT works, in simple words, so you can make the most of it:
    GPT isn't actually intelligent, it doesn't understand your sentence. What it does is completing your sentence with the most probable words that would follow it. So, when you write a sentence or a question, GPT finds the most probable word after that, then the most probable word after that one, and so on, until it has produced one or a couple of sentences more.
    So, you need to find the sentences that work best with GPT, for your needs. You should ask questions in a way that is common, in a way many people usually ask them, so GPT will find a good answer for those with high probability.
    If you ask weird questions, uncommon questions, or sentences that rarely people say, GPT will produce a weird or random answer.
    It's like, if I told you "dog what red", what would you say? The continuation of that sentence could be anything, like:
    * green blue
    * maybe you mean what dog is red?
    * what blue
    * sorry, I don't get it

      To be honest there are plenty of resources to learn Japanese. I liked to use Tae Kim's grammar guide coupled with Wasabi (Learn Japanese Online) and Maggie Sensei.

    Given the abject failure of dedicated translation apps to deal with Japanese, I really doubt generalized ai is gonna cut it. However, given the self correcting algorythms used in ai, it is quite likely that an ai program specifically fed a diet if correct japanese would probably master most of the language pretty quickly. Whether it will be able to read the context, let alone read the atmospere, is another matter. Get ready for aspberger's ai.

    LLMs in general are pretty inconsistent. You could try to regenerate the answer a few times.
    The power of LLMs in my opinions lies in fast iterations through feedback. I'd like to see what happens if you ask it for improvements if needed. For example, say:
    "I like that you corrected the grammatical mistakes, but the sentence still sounds unnatural. Can you make it sound more natural?"
    OR
    "Ilike that you corrected the grammatical mistakes, but you converted the phrase from neutral Japanese to formal Japanese, and I'd like the phrase to be in neutral Japanese. Can you change that?"

      That said if I wasn't around N3 using it like this would be pointless as I wouldn't be able to tell when it's being too textbooky, formal, or casual. And I'm sure I'm not catching a lot of its mistakes but I'm hoping it's still better than me by myself

      Generally the most popular Japanese foods abroad are their fast food. Ramen is noodles (carbs) and bone broth soup (hella fat). There are lower calorie ramen broths but it's still mostly just carbs.
      Healthy foods will focus on proteins and/or veggies with few added carbs, fats, etc. So sashimi is definitely good (do your research on stuff like mercury in fish though), and Japanese sushi (not western sushi) with lower rice to fish ratios are good. Carb intake is still important, but focusing on preferably whole grains and eating it alongside proteins and veggies is best to reduce hunger.
      Miso soup is also good. Japanese pickles are traditionally eaten with most meals and are great as a veggie source and for gut health. Tea with your meal can also help you feel more full, mostly due to it being a warm drink

      Neural networks, which is what people typically mean when they say AI these days, are different. They also take a position as input, run an algorithm, and output a move/evaluation, but the difference is that nobody knows what that algorithm is. They make their own algorithm during training by modifying their internal structure. By the end, though we can see each neuron and its connections, understanding the structure of the whole thing is impossible, similar to human brains.

  • @Herr_Vorragender
    @Herr_Vorragender 11 місяців тому

    It's a hard task for the machine learning models.
    Maybe try something they actually should be strong at?
    Perhaups if I'd write a paragraph in English and have it translate it to Japanese with added instructions on whom (friends or strangers or boss) to adress?
    Or even better, have chatgpt write a short paragraph about any topic on its own from scratch with again the added instructions of whom to adress?
    Having chatgpt translate and explain is hard because of mathematical and probable distances within the trained model.
    See, when they feed the model with texts in various languages, you can think of the learned things as "bubbles".
    If they hadn't fed the model with any translated texts at all, and every text was unique, the trained mathematical model would not be able to diliver any translations at all, because the "bubbles" never overlap or touch each other.
    You can think of the translated texts to act like a bridge between the "bubbles". Or in mathematical terms the translated texts move the sets closer to each other raising the probability that text A maches text B, hence resulting in a probable translation.
    But! If you bypass this little problem by sticking in the "bubble", you should get pretty good texts.
    But why? Well, what do I care about the text book "Peter, Paul and Mary watched a football game." when I could not care less about football?
    Some people love the tedious repetitions and even more tedious example sentences. But I'd propose not a single living babies soul on earth nor history has ever learned their mothers tongue by grinding through irrelevant text snippets.
    We all learned because the words we learned had meaning to us at that point in time.
    Hence, having chatgpt spit out a paragraph about that dude making sweet loving quality time with that beautiful redheadded woman will (so I propose) stick much wicked more than any dumb text about any shopping situation.
    Is the latter unimportant? No. But it'll come automatically on its own and in time.
    Now, when you have the Japanese paragraph you can easily rip the sentences apart, throw them into any text to speach app and hear what it sounds like.
    And in terms of grammar, do 6 year young children know much about grammar? They do not. Are babies tormented with grammar?
    Why then should we not have fun with languages and do the grammar later?
    And if you object to all this then you can easily save teachers valuable times by having them cross check the chatgpt text, then learn to speak it, and afterwards have the teachers explain the grammar if you desire. Maybe by that teachers get to keep their sanity by not grinding through basics 90% of their time.
