In this situation, I wouldn't edit the output. Let management see exactly what they're getting.

they're not looking
The AI that replaced the management is looking. They are the one instructing the transcription AI to add Dorian to every third summary, to ensure the human worker is actually reviewing the work.
If it's good enough to require the staff to use it, then it's good enough to stand on its own. That's just simple logic isn't it? Oh, it can't stand on its own and shouldn't be required? Well then...
I would just leave Dorian in. Wouldn't want to assume he wasn't involved.
That is going to be quite a lawsuit, when an actual Dorian gets hurt.
Exactly this. There are real people named Dorian, you can't just assume it's a hallucination every single time.
Well that boy better should not have been named Like what we showed our AI in our training data
Some CEO or representative of that company speaking to the Public when that lawsuit hits
Actually I think Dorian is the one making any mistake here in the future.
Sounds like they need another ai system for the de-dorian work /s
This is exactly how i expect AI integration to continue to evolve.
It's inevitable, in 10 years we'll be 15 layers deep and no one will remember what layer 4 actually does.
"I'm sorry, Dorian. I'm afraid I can't do that."
We call it Agentic AI
This is actually a really common bug in transcription programs. It happens when one of the developers trains the AI model with video and audio of their dead child, Dorian. Just contact support and request that the developer tell the AI he's sorry he trapped him between this world and the next, and while he'll always love him, he knows it's time to let go; head towards the light, Dorian...it's ok...you're free now, Dorian, you're free. Then you'll probably need to restart your PC.
Be sure to wait until Dorian has been fully accepted into heaven before restarting your system or else his soul could get corrupted and end up trapped in purgatory forever.
True, although that bug is a lot easier to deal with. Instead of integrating hallucinated stories about Dorian into the transcript, you get a couple of extra lines of text now and then that read something like, "Daddy, where are you?" or, "I can't see, Daddy. I'm scared." It's annoying, but it's pretty easy to just CTR F the word, "Daddy," and delete it.
I remember in the early days of AI Dungeon (when it still used GPT 3), there were a few recurring characters from overfitting on a handful of text adventures. In the middle of a sci-fi adventure, but blood is mentioned? Count Grey speaks up from the corner: "Oh dear, are you bleeding? Come here child, let the Count clean you up."
The Picture of Dorian Grok.
Dorian is real and he is my friend!
I’ve got a painting of him upstairs somewhere.
I'm so glad my company did the opposite and said we can't use AI transcription.
"But doctor, he says, I am Dorian!"
The basic non ai software has been around for a long time.
It doesn't really work with non-whites. Best it can do is Dorian Gray.
Look out! AI will lead to mass unemployment. Better start farming! Don’t know how to farm? Just refer to Dorian’s Almanac for step by step instructions.
It really will but not because it's so functional that we can't compete with it.
It's going to cause mass unemployment because the imagined potential end of labor is so lucrative that it's worth just about any price. Since the people who will own it don't have to pay most of that price they are of course willing to force it into every single space out there to further externalize research and development costs onto an unwilling public.
They genuinely don't care what is spent, broken, or lost in their pursuit of infinite wealth.
Some day Dorian will actually be in the call
And they will delete him and get sued for denying that someone's dead child actually existed.
Had to go to the hospital after the accident? Discharge papers signed by one Dr. Christopher Turk.
Ah yes, the DeDorian DMC8
That Dorian's a ~~real~~ fake menace!
I keep thinking that it's picking up on some slang or misheard stuff.
"Sans de rien"? Makes no sense. "Santo" something?
It's like how Alexa has no idea where Barnak is but is being ordered there by quebecois on the daily.
Sounds like someone added Dorian to the system prompt, or something like that. Perhaps someone who wasn't happy about the whole project?
Everyone knows ~~Dave~~ Dorian!
