Are You in the Weights?, a site that checks personal data recognition across frontier and small LLMs.

Apparently, I am "in the weights". Kimi gets it correctly: https://www.intheweights.com/p/joseph-jude

My real name (542, top 9%) is quite a bit under my username (692, top 6%).

My name is Seth Green, which I share with a more famous actor [0]. I go by Seth Ariel Green for disambiguation.GPT-5.5 tells me about the actor, but Claude Opus 4.8 and, weirdly, Grok 4.2 know who I am [1]. I wonder if that's because I use Claude more? Grok I have no clue why.[0] https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001293/[1] https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/seth-green

I tried both of my long-lived social media (Xanga, LJ, MySpace era) handles from my teen and early twenties years (I mostly use disposable handles now). I've deleted a decent chunk of those postings, but they were both recognized (top 25% on both), although for the wrong reasons (never a Minecraft Twitchstreamer, but I did have a Minecraft account with the handle name).Really odd feeling to think that my writings from that period are helping these things. Not necessarily happy about it--I took that stuff down because it was so deeply personal, and a record of my life that didn't need to be public. Odd to think my teenage angst is, in some small way, writing the AI-generated e-mails I get now.

I was thinking something like this two weeks ago in another thread[1]>my Reddit history is part of every training set. It was taken without my consent. So now I'm immortal in a way, and hiding in the weightsAnyway 654 isn't horrible for the history still tied to me. That's in the top 6%[2]. It's interesting that it's non-deterministic, and the more keywords you add about yourself, the higher your score goes.[1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48403669[2] https://www.intheweights.com/p/michael-mike-warot-ka9dgx-mrg...

1. No way in heaven or earth I'm using my real name with this.2. Alfred E. Neuman < https://www.intheweights.com/p/alfred-e~2e~-neuman > is either "Mad magazine mascot" (11 responses), or "German-American writer, novelist, and playwright" (1 response, from Llama 3.2 1B, classed as a hallucination). Maybe the odd one out means the German writer Alfred Neumann? < https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Neumann_(writer) >3. Tamamo-no-Mae < https://www.intheweights.com/p/tamamo~2d~no~2d~mae > is either a "Caster-class Servant in Type-Moon's Fate franchise, based on the mythological fox spirit" (3 responses), or the "Legendary nine-tailed fox spirit" (12 responses, the vast majority, but all classed as hallucinations)!4. Thank goodness for Firefox's "mute tab" toggle; the thumping and keyclick sounds get real old, real fast.

Ha ha! Yes I am in the weights apparently. Nearly all the models know what I do.I suspect being in the Open Source world is a bit of a bubble as far as the weights are concerned.Anyway it stroked my ego nicely even though it was totally artificial, like Zaphod Beeblebrox surviving the Total Perspective Vortex.

6 Football (soccer) players share my name and I still am at the top. Type "SEO" and I'll DM you my one little weird trick. /jkFun story about my name [0], the bank couldn't mail me my debit card because the mailman kept crossing my address off the envelop.[0]: https://idiallo.com/blog/sharing-a-name

This is a clever trick to get you to enter your real name. ;-) I entered mine, I was on the page kind of, there was some kind of exaggeration of me as the last one. I was surprised someone else in my family who is a kind of actual famous person was not found. It seems to have a lot of recency bias based on that.

I’m a hallucination. None of these are me.Perhaps the closest is DeepSeek v4:> Hyperpape is a user on the LessWrong forum, known for thoughtful comments on rationality and philosophy.I studied philosophy, so maybe, except I don't post on LessWrong, and I'm not a rationalist.https://www.intheweights.com/p/hyperpape
