I mean, one thing base models love to do is to generate biographical details about my life which are not accurate. Once when I was generating continuations to a thread where Alex Zhu was arguing with me about near-death experiences the model just claimed that I really knew that you don’t have any kind of “life flashing before your eyes” thing that happens when you are near death, because actually, I had been in 5+ near death experiences, and so I really would know. This would of course be a great argument to make if it was true, but it of course is not. Smaller variations of this kind of stuff happen to me all the time, and they are easy to miss.
(My comments start with a higher vote-total since my small-vote strength is 2. Then looks like one person voted on mine but not yours, but one vote is really just random noise, I would ignore it)

Do you really have access to the GPT-4 base (foundation) model? Why? It’s not publicly available.

My best guess is (which I roughly agree with) is that your comments are too long, likely as a result of base-model use.
