Saying “Thank You” to AI

尽管jǐn guǎn我们wǒ men知道zhī dào,在zài和héAI的de交流jiāo liú中zhōng,AI的de回答huí dá是shì一yī串chuàn被bèi训练xùn liàn出来chu lai的de字节zì jié组合zǔ hé,但是dàn shì很多hěn duō人rén依然yī rán会huì说shuō“请qǐng”或者huò zhě“谢谢xiè xie”等děng词语cí yǔ,似乎sì hū在zài和hé一yī个gè真正zhēn zhèng的de人类rén lèi交流jiāo liú。

OpenAI的deCEO说shuō,用户yòng hù每měi一yī次cì说shuō“请qǐng”、“谢谢xiè xie”等děng词语cí yǔ会huì让ràngOpenAI多duō花huā千万qiān wàn美元měi yuán,但是dàn shì这zhè笔bǐ钱qián还是hái shi花huā得de值得zhí dé的de。

为什么wèi shén me呢ne?

WorkLab指出zhǐ chū,AI往往wǎng wǎng会huì模仿mó fǎng你nǐ输入shū rù内容nèi róng的de专业zhuān yè程度chéng dù、清晰qīng xī度dù和hé细节xì jié。

你nǐ越yuè温和wēn hé、礼貌lǐ mào,它的tā de回答huí dá也yě可能kě néng越yuè全面quán miàn、人性化rén xìng huà。

有的yǒu de人rén和héAI聊天liáo tiān会huì被bèi聊liáo哭kū,因为yīn wèiAI永远yǒng yuǎn在线zài xiàn,从不cóng bù打断dǎ duàn你nǐ,也yě不bù评判píng pàn你nǐ。

所以suǒ yǐ面对miàn duìAI,很多hěn duō人rén也yě愿意yuàn yì做zuò一yī个gè温暖wēn nuǎn的de、有yǒu礼貌lǐ mào的de人rén。
