I don't know, I don't mind someone telling me about a dream, if it's not too long. It can be interesting or funny.

As always, when one says something, they need to check that the public they have is interested and the public must give cues about how they receive the thing. Of course it doesn't always work well, but this could concern any topic.

Definitely don't share your AI chat with me though, I can sustain a poker face and politeness only for so long, after that I will probably need to complain, vent or practice sarcasm.

I'm more interested in the prompt than the AI's response. If your prompt was just asking it the question, then neither is worth sharing.

I saw a post on the torment nexus that was about 12 pages long and kept stopping to say "Chat told me" or "So I asked chat"

And I asked why they kept saying it. I hadnt made the connection yet. I thought it was something about twitch.

THe bloke replied "Oh sorry about that I have recently acquired ChatGPT as my personal assistant"

And I just couldnt. He was basically explaining all the cool things he discussed with ChatGPT.

Why would he think anyone else cares? I dont understand.

I get what you're saying here but I do think an actual dreams are at least a bit more interesting then AI output.

But I do think such a comparison (to emphasis how unhelpful sharing tailored AI text with others is) would be useful.

I legitimately would rather hear about my coworkers dream than their AI chatlog. At least the dream might be an interesting bit of their subconscious. The unwanted log is just a more annoying way to convey what would otherwise be a single sentence answer.

>Don't bore your co-workers (or others) with descriptions of your dreams, and don't throw a computer's dreams (AI chat logs) at them either.

Beautiful. An ode and axiom for our new age.

> AI conversations are like dreams: everyone has one they like and wants to share it with others ... but no on gives a crap about your dream/chat session, because it was uniquely appealing to you, and not them.

> Don't bore your co-workers (or others) with descriptions of your dreams, and don't throw a computer's dreams (AI chat logs) at them either.

This is a great quote, thanks for sharing.

Same for AI music, images, videos.

I created a few songs that I enjoy, but I would never subject anyone from having to listen to it (or worse, deceive them into thinking it's a human creation).

I get the metaphor but to be honest I'd much rather hear the details of someone's dream than whatever an AI produced for them most of the time.

Edit: amusing LLM bloopers may be an exception

That's odd, I actually like hearing about other's dreams

Dreams are usually predicated on info-dense stuff, like personality or prompts

I was writing a comment after some code I wrote and Copilot autocompleted saying "This is hacky, but..."

I thought it was funny so I put a comment above saying "This is what Copilot said about my code:" and it autocompleted a line after it saying "Copilot was correct, but..."
