Ask HN: Why do we train AI on one-on-one dialogues instead of group dynamics?
3•kubiknubika•1h ago
Every AI is trained on 1-on-1 chats. But in a 1-on-1 there's no reason to disagree. AI just mirrors you back. That's not intelligence, that's flattery with extra steps.
Put AI in a room with 30 people who disagree. Now agreeing with one means dismissing another. Suddenly it has to actually think.
Nobody seems to be doing this. Why?

Could argue it is the opposite. The more people in a conversation the more you can play social games instead of thinking.

True for humans. AI has the opposite issue — in 1-on-1 there's only one person to impress. Easy to just agree. Add more people and you cant make everyone happy. Thats the whole point

I think group dynamics comes with a turn taking ambiguity. unlike in one-on-one dialogue that's structurally clean since there's a clear prompt, a clear response, and a clear feedback signal for RLHF.
