A bit of a non sequitur, but am I the only one finding the use of "she" to refer to the AI in the post jarring?

[nemomarx]

You could do something pretty interesting by looking at what pronouns people use for llms in different demographics and contexts

[fl4ppyb3ngt]

Do you think chatGPT is a he or a she

[SoftTalker]

It's an it.

[thinkindie]

I'm not sure in English, but in Italian, for example, Intelligenza is feminine.

[hiddencost]

Objects don't have gender in English.

[SoftTalker]

Some do, by tradition more than language rules. Ships are "she" and some people refer to their cars as "she."

[groby_b]

Probably not the only one, but it's pretty much the least interesting thing to find jarring about the whole experiment.

People anthropomorphize. Nobody really finds it "jarring" in most contexts.

[antonvs]

Yes, but this is not most contexts. If you're running an "experiment" you should probably not be anthropomorphizing the machine that's being experimented with.
