Oh I thought this was going to be about the cult like in group signaling of LLM advocates, but this is a thing imagining language patterns as a society instead of language patterns of a society being a bias that the models have.

This sounds dismissive, but it is interesting in two more obvious ways:

1. The interaction appears to mimic human interaction online ( trendsetter vs follower ) 2. It shows something some of us have been suggesting for a while: pathways for massive online manipulation campaigns

It’s funny how we seem to be on this treadmill of “tech that uses GPUs to crunch data” starting with the Bitcoin thing, moving to NFTs, now LLMs.

Wonder what’s next.

Crazy - this is saying agents develop their own biases and culture through their engagement with one another even if the individual agents are unbiased.
