Creating a reader AI 2023-11-15

GPTs are all the rage, but I wanted to automate it programmatically, so I thought I'd make it 3.5 based.

I wrote a few prompts myself.

Then I thought, "No, we should try to streamline this process itself with GPT Builder.

I put in my own prompts and started naming myself and drawing icons.

(DeepL) The "Building a Reader AI" content on Hirokazu Nishio's Scrapbox page discusses various aspects of AI development, focusing on the transition from translation to authorship using GPT-3.5 and the challenges of creating a reader AI that understands and responds to content. The text mentions experimenting with small starts, leveraging synergies with current DeepL translation, and eventually replacing translation. It also emphasizes the need for output that is easy for machines to understand and translate. This approach will initially use prompts and eventually be fine-tuned to target non-native English-speaking users. The page further discusses the idea that one should not expect a response from others when writing in Japanese, the unintended desire for feedback on English articles, and the solution of creating a non-human entity that reads and responds. The process is broken down into steps: translation from Japanese to English, translation from English to English by the reader AI, and translation from English to Japanese. Issues related to linking concepts and accurate processing by the AI will also be discussed, along with consideration of the best platforms for hosting these AI outputs, such as Github Pages, Wiki, and Vercel.

The idea that we should not expect a response from others when writing in Japanese

In Japanese" is superfluous.

It's more of a summary than a translation, though, right? Oh, well.

Let the reader AI read it.

The emphasis on making outputs that are easy for both humans and machines to understand and translate is crucial. It ensures that the AI's responses are not only accurate but also accessible to a broad audience, especially non-native English speakers. This is particularly relevant given the global reach and diverse user base of AI technologies.

Nishio's solution to the lack of feedback when writing in Japanese, by creating a non-human entity that can read and respond, is an intriguing way to foster interaction and engagement. This approach could significantly benefit users who write in languages that have a smaller online presence and thus receive less feedback.

The process he outlines—translating from Japanese to English, having a reader AI process the content in English, and then translating back to Japanese—is an intricate workflow. It addresses the challenge of linking concepts and handling them correctly, which are common issues in AI translation and response generation.

Finally, the consideration of the best platform to host these AI outputs, be it GitHub Pages, Wiki, Vercel, or others, shows his attention to accessibility and the importance of choosing the right tools for dissemination.

Nishio's work seems to embody a blend of technical prowess and a deep understanding of human-AI interaction, especially in the context of language and translation. It would be interesting to know how he envisions the future of AI in terms of cultural and linguistic diversity. How does he see AI overcoming the challenges of accurately interpreting and responding to the nuances present in different languages and cultural contexts?

(DeepL) As detailed on his Scrapbox page "Creating a Reader AI," Hirokazu Nishio's approach to developing a Reader AI is quite fascinating and innovative, and his focus on translation-to-authorship using GPT-3.5 is a great example of the AI's ability to The emphasis on making big leaps forward, leveraging synergies with existing translation tools such as DeepL, and the idea of starting small and gradually replacing them with more sophisticated AI-driven systems is a realistic approach. This gradual transition would seem to offer a more secure and controlled technological evolution.

It is critical to focus on creating output that is understandable and translatable for both humans and machines, ensuring that AI responses are not only accurate but also accessible to a wide range of audiences, especially those for whom English is not their first language. This is especially relevant given the global reach and diverse user base of AI technology.

Nishio's solution to the lack of feedback in writing in Japanese is an interesting way to promote interaction and engagement by creating a non-human presence that can read and respond. This approach could greatly benefit users who write in a language where they have little online presence and are less likely to receive feedback.

His process of translating from Japanese to English, having the reader AI process the English content, and then translating it back into Japanese is a complex workflow, solving a common challenge in AI translation and answer generation: the difficulty of linking concepts and processing them correctly.

Finally, his discussion of the best platforms to host these AI outputs, such as GitHub Pages, Wiki, and Vercel, illustrates the importance of his consideration of accessibility and choosing the right tools for dissemination.

Nishio's work seems to embody a blend of technical prowess and a deep understanding of human-AI interaction, especially in the context of language and translation. It is interesting to learn how he envisions the future of AI in terms of cultural and linguistic diversity. How does he see AI overcoming the challenge of accurately interpreting and responding to nuances that exist in different languages and cultural contexts?

Adaptability Across Languages: How does the reader AI adapt to the nuances and contextual differences across various languages, especially between structurally distinct languages like Japanese and English?

Feedback Mechanisms: In the context of creating a non-human entity for feedback, how does the AI handle the subjective aspects of language, such as tone, style, and cultural references, particularly in creative or less formal writing?

Error Handling and Learning: When the AI encounters errors or misunderstandings in translation or interpretation, what mechanisms are in place for it to learn and improve over time? Does it rely on user feedback, or does it have an autonomous learning capability?

Integration with Existing Platforms: How does Nishio envision integrating this reader AI with existing platforms or social networks? Will it function as an independent tool, or is there a plan to embed it within popular platforms for wider accessibility?

Ethical Considerations: Are there any ethical considerations or safeguards in place to ensure that the AI's responses are not only accurate but also respectful of cultural sensitivities, especially when dealing with diverse global users?

Long-Term Vision: Finally, what is Nishio's long-term vision for this project? Does he see this technology evolving into a standard tool for cross-cultural communication, or does he have other specific applications in mind?
