Remember the name fixation? (lemmy.world)

Well, now Perchance's AI has become completely fixated on specific names when generating characters (in AI Character Chat), when you use the "Unknown" character, the one that has you generate a character based on a text prompt.

The names include:

  • Silas
  • Kaelen
  • Jax
  • Elara
  • Allistair
  • Thorne
  • Vane
  • Hank
  • Elias

This isn't even criticism either, this is just me taking notes. It seems Perchance's AI model has a particular fixation on these names. You can only force the AI to generate a character with a different name if you specifically specify the name of the character you want the AI to generate. Otherwise, it'll just use a pool that consists of those names. It's not coincidence, it's hard burned into its memory.

I use the story generator a lot, and it's been consistently starting with an Arthur. He's always polishing his bronze or brass collections or clocks or gardening.

Previously, like. 5-6 months ago or longer- I got Adam, Daniel, John, Malik, Will, Jess, Lawrence, Tony, Charlie, Nigel, Luis, Oliver, Lillian, Marco, Taylor. As random characters I didn't name beforehand.

I do think this should be a criticism, why can't it tap into a baby name website? Why is it stuck on the same dozen or whatever names?
