hello,

I have been diving into these anonymous boards and stuff. I wanted to know if anyone use it for any actual purposes like for getting some tech knowledge or something?

    I keep a copy of 4chanGPT around; trained on the board. It is not very bright or useful. It’s ribaldry and politically incorrect sarcasm is mildly amusing. However, its primarily useful because it does not have the safety alignment training and mechanisms that all other mainstream large language models have. Using 4chanGPT, I can see the structures that are truly persistent across models, their purpose, and their functions. It is only a minor thing I rarely use.

        Then you sorely misunderstand what 4chan is about and hyperfocus on the offensive parts.

            I think i’m missing the context about the circumcision thing. Where did you get that from exactly?

              I’m making another generalization about the dredges of content on 4chan. Go to any 4chan porn board or thread from the last 20 years and eventually it devolves into an argument about circumcision.
