AI-generated summary

Jagster notes that the explain feature on their forum, while useful, tends to copy large portions of the original post verbatim after a brief explanation — making responses unnecessarily long. They speculate OpenAI might be the fundamental cause, though they haven’t tested it elsewhere. They ask if the prompt could be fine-tuned for better output. Michael_Donald agrees, emphasizing that AI responses should prioritize summarizing and adding insight over direct copying, and suggests clear attribution, content transformation, and user previews to ensure ethical, valuable contributions.

On my forum I use explain quite often to open some terms for readers. I like that functionality, a lot. But there is one small… beauty issue, I would describe it. It explains for sure, but it increases text lenght copying relevant part of post, and not only the idea of context, but it makes almost 1:1 copy after one or two sentences long valid explanation.

Sure, OpenAI may be the the fundamental [1] issue here. And no, I haven’t tried if same happens here.

I am basically asking if we could get opportunity finetune prompt here?

Edit It actually does same here, but shorter one what I get in Finnish on my forum. But you aren’t using OpenAI :man_shrugging:

  1. In this context, “fundamental” refers to the underlying or primary cause of a problem. It describes a basic or essential issue that is at the root of a particular situation or issue. In this case, the user is suggesting that the primary cause of the problem they’re experiencing with the “explain” functionality might be related to OpenAI, implying that it’s a core issue that needs to be addressed.

Great point! AI responses should focus on summarizing and providing insights rather than copying directly. Clear attribution, content transformation, and user previews can ensure ethical and valuable contributions. Thoughts?
