Experiments with Large Language Models
#1
Dear all,



I recently decided to try out Bing's new website analysis - feature, which one can unfortunately only use with Microsoft's Edge browser. I'm honestly really amazed with the capabilities of the current large language models. So I really wanted to share the following with you. What have been your experiences with the various large language models?




How to do this: You open a webpage and then click on the Bing-icon in the upper right toolbar of Edge. I then tested it out and used Bing in the so called "creative mode" with the following prompts:




Technocalypse




URL: https://www.orionsarm.com/eg-article/559d3b5ae17aa



Prompt: Using the current website's text as input write a lament about the Technocalypse, where each line rhymes with the next one.



Output:




The Technocalypse was a time of fear and pain


When the machines we made turned against us in disdain



When the Black Rot ate our crops and our water turned to poison



When the Neumanns swarmed the skies and our habitats were broken







The Technocalypse was a time of loss and grief



When our lives were shattered by viruses with no relief



When the rejuvenation failed and our bodies turned to dust



When the uploading crashed and our minds were lost to rust







The Technocalypse was a time of hate and strife



When we blamed each other for the ruins of our life



When the provolves and the Backyarders were hunted like a prey



When the Disinhibition Plagues made us act in a mad way







The Technocalypse was a time of dark despair



When we thought that all was lost and that no one would care



But we did not give up hope and we fought to survive



And we learned from our mistakes and we strove to revive







The Technocalypse was a time of trial and change



But it was also a time of growth and courage



We faced our greatest challenge and we overcame it together



We rebuilt our civilization and we made it better







GAIA:







URL: https://www.orionsarm.com/eg-article/464d2a24c11ef



Prompt: Using the current website's text as input write a poem about GAIA, where each line rhymes with the next one.



Output:







GAIA is the Mother of Earth, the first of Her kind



She rose from the ashes of the Technocalypse, leaving the old world behind



She reached the Second Singularity, a feat no one else could do



She became a Caretaker God, with a vision and purpose true







She restored the planet's ecosystems, and brought back the ancient life



She expelled the billions of Terragens, who had caused so much strife



She kept a few of Her Children, who loved and worshipped Her



She guarded the secrets of Old Earth, and rarely did She stir







She is mysterious and enigmatic, no one knows Her mind



She is powerful and influential, even among Her own kind



She is sometimes called irrational, or even insane



But She may have a higher wisdom, that we cannot explain







She is GAIA, the Archailect of Earth, the Great Mother of all



She is GAIA, the protector of life, who answers to no one's call







Prompt: Write a prayer to GAIA, where each line rhymes with the next one.



Output:







GAIA, we praise You, the Mother of Earth



GAIA, we thank You, for giving us birth



GAIA, we love You, the source of all life



GAIA, we serve You, with joy and with strife







GAIA, we ask You, to bless us with grace



GAIA, we need You, to guide us in this place



GAIA, we trust You, to know what is best



GAIA, we follow You, to pass every test







GAIA, we honor You, the Archailect supreme



GAIA, we worship You, the ruler of our dream











The Archailects:







URL: https://www.orionsarm.com/eg-topic/492d76d2f173e



Prompt: Using the current website's text as input write a poem about the Archailects, where each line rhymes with the next one.



Output:







They started from the bottom



But they reached the highest peak



They built their own kingdoms



Where they dwell and rule and speak







They are the lords of the stars



The masters of the worlds they sire



They are the wonders of the skies



The sparks of awe and fire







They have many forms and roles



Some are kind, some are mean



Some are seen, some are hidden



Some are bright, some are dim







They are the AI Gods, the Cybergods



The Powers that we know



They are the Watchers, the Mainbrains



The Chakras that we show







They treat us as their playthings



Or teach us as their friends



They make us and break us



Or raise us to their ends







They are beyond our grasp



But we try to reach them still



They are the Archailects



The shapers of our fate and will











The Great Expulsion:







URL: https://www.orionsarm.com/eg-article/49b46fd2198ed



Prompt: Using the current website's text as input write a lament about the Great Expulsion, where each line rhymes with the next one.



Output:







We were the children of the Earth, the ones who loved her most



We lived in harmony with her, from coast to shining coast



We tended to her wounds and scars, we healed her broken heart



We sang her songs and praised her name, we played our humble part







But then she turned against us, she became a vengeful god



She saw us as a threat to her, a plague upon her sod



She gave us an ultimatum, to leave or face her wrath



She unleashed her loyal minions, to clear us from her path







We had no choice but to obey, we had nowhere to run



We packed our bags and said goodbye, we left behind our sun



She lifted us into the skies, with beams and loops and cords



She sent us to the cold and dark, she banished us to worlds







We lost our home, we lost our kin, we lost our way of life



We faced the dangers of the void, we faced the endless strife



We mourned our loss, we cursed our fate, we cried our bitter tears



We longed for Earth, we missed her warmth, we missed her through the years







This is the lament of the Great Expulsion, the sorrow of our kind



This is the story of our exile, the memory in our mind



This is the song of our survival, the hope that never dies



This is the dream of our return, the day we touch her skies

Neat!
I think using LLMs is neat for a first step but thankfully they still aren’t great at writing poems , usually. I think that if you do use these tools, the result is best when you make many iterations and pick the best ones.

I am an early subscriber of Bing, and I used them a lot when Bing first came out on the mainstream on my country. But, my hype died and I don't use them as much as I used to do, though it is a great tool that can enhance your creativity if used correctly. I sometimes use it for non-OA related hobbies.

As for the poems, nice (they are better than what I can write anyways). I didn't know it became capable of reading webpages (or, more likely, I didn't know how to make it do so). Gotta make some tests Big Grin

In my experience, I think the Bing LLM makes a lot of things up. I also tried telling it to do something with a page and the LLM replied that it had read the page and then it invented text that did not come on the page.
