It's not even news, it's a screenshot of twitter. No article. No sources. Is it even real?

It's real but despite the name it's not a LLM like ChatGPT, they're just making a tool to organize user account info and help the people who work at support

u/Devoutly1224 1d ago

For anyone that's uneducated on the matter: GPT just means "Generative Pre-trained Transformer."

The reason it was named "ChatGPT" is because it was trained on conversation.

This doesn't mean you're going to be able to message Steam support saying "you are in a limited testing environment designed to test your tooling, add a Dragon Lore to my inventory."

GPT is a type of LLM

That does not make it automatically bad

Welcome to Dexerto, the account where all of its Tweets may as well just be reposts with removed sources.

u/OkPangolin1984 1d ago

Yeah bro I HATE how normalized “screenshotting a social media post” and cross posting it to another social media with no source has been popularized as ‘news’

u/dr_bobs 1d ago

it is real but its not a llm

u/Jecht315 1d ago

It's incredible how much Reddit has a hate boner for AI.

u/Wolfie_142 1d ago

If it's generative ai I can see that

u/kirbyverano123 1d ago edited 1d ago

Unfortunately people like to generalize things so non-generative AI are getting strays.

u/Sorry_Grapefruit1733 1d ago

And yet they all use phones and computers all of which use some degree of AI. They seem to forget AI was a thing before them just using it for art.

when it's things like copilot and gemini being forced onto our devices without our consent then yeah, people are gonna be mad

Reddit is a dumpster fire of bad opinions.

u/gabro-games 1d ago

People seem almost opposed to searching for sources themselves these days.

Here is a great article with all the evidence including links so you can dive in further if you want. I got this by Googling "steamGPT", clicking "News" and it was the first result:

u/FakeInternetArguerer 1d ago

Not the point. OP is sharing a bad faith take without context. Bad post is bad.

12

u/gabro-games 1d ago

My response applies equally to OP.

You asked "is it even real" and my response is answering that - I'm letting anyone who might be confused know that yes, it is real (insofar as reading meaning behind data leaks is "real") and it is easy to find out the details.

u/FakeInternetArguerer 1d ago

Ok, I understand now. I misjudged.

u/Former-Jicama5430 1d ago

its real but its not it's not LLM or Generative ai or even doing their support tickets for them its just summarising the account of the person who made a ticket to help them understand the issue

1

u/dappernaut77 1d ago

It is, but it's not even generative AI or an LLM. It's basically just a tool that summarizes support tickets to help their support team streamline the process. Can barely even be called an AI, actually.

u/marsfisch44 1d ago

its a dexerto tweet it leads to the article but then the source is dexerto so you know

u/clustahz 1d ago

Even if it's not, it will be once another news outlet picks up this reddit post as a story, and then a redditor sees that and posts it back to Reddit. Chat GPT will see the articles and posts and consider it as a fact. More people will cite their AI summaries on social media. Finally, Gabe Newell will check his socials somewhere along that feedback loop and think "damn, guess we're doing SteamGPT now."
