Would be cool to hear some samples of this. I remember there was some hallucinated background music during the meditation demo in the original reveal livestream but haven't seen much beyond that. Artifact of training on podcasts to get natural intonation.
1) Every response would be normal except end with a “whoosh” like one of those sound effects some mail clients use when an message is sent, and the model itself either couldn’t or wouldn’t acknowledge it.
2) The same except with someone knocking on a door. Like someone would play on a soundboard.
3) The entire history in the conversation disappearing after several minutes of back and forth, leading to the model having no idea what I’m talking about and acting as if it’s a fresh conversation.
4) Advanced voice mode stuttering because it hears its own voice and thinks it’s me interrupting (on a brand new iPhone 16 Pro, medium-low built in speaker volume and built-in mic).
5) Really weird changes in pronunciation or randomly saying certain words high-pitched, or suddenly using a weird accent.
And all of this was prior to these most recent changes.
It also stutters and repeats sometimes and says poor connection even though I know the connection is near-ideal.
Yeah we’re too lazy to fix it too
Here's a non-AI example: If all HN comments had to be some multiple of 50 characters long and comments were padded with the letter "A," then most HN comments would look like the user was screaming at the end. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I experience the same issue on an iPhone 15 Pro Max and have to mute the mic whenever I'm listening to a response. I wish they added an option to disable voice interruptions so that it could be interrupted only by touch.
Likely a natural consequence of using native voice mode. It is very probable that its context span is very short. Sesame for instance loses context after less than 20 minutes (not sure when exactly).
Obviously I get LLMs have no concept of truth and hallucinate all the time, but I would have thought that the model prompt would have told it to acknowledge that it's a chatbot.
