If you wanted the AI to just create book like texts than you could train it purely on books from a library but if you want it to converse like a human being you need training data that imitates that.

But that's my point really it already talks like a human. My guess is they feed it on hours and hours and hours of podcasts because that tends to be the manner in which it communicates. I don't see how Reddit really adds to this.

I doubt its trained on podcasts, seeing as they would need subtitles, and current automated subtitling is not that good.
