    Can’t wait for all these companies to lose all this money on rushed far from ready to implement ‘tech’

      They win big because they are saving a lot from the mass lay-offs and the free advertising they get. And in the unlikely scenario where they actually face difficulties, they will just steal more money from the taxpayers in the form of a bail-out.

    • They lose money for 5 years, establish AI use as mandatory to seem credible on the world stage, cause smaller businesses to spend money on a worthless resource in order to appear more successful, and win when those same smaller businesses begin folding, thus reducing competition, or win when they continue spending money on it. Regardless, AI will gradually become a norm and the companies that invested in it will have seen their investment come to fruition.

        I’ve been wondering more and more if current GPT is more a side-show. Cool to look at, shows progress in tech, but more importantly sets you up as the people to build algorithms for military and surveillance use. Long-term high-margin contracts paid for by the public.

    This and glue sauce are so worrisome. Like sure most people probably know better than to actually do that, but what about the ones they don’t know? How many know how bad it is to mix bleach and ammonia? How long until Google AI is poisoned enough to recommend that?

      Yes, the issue is not the glaring error we catch and laugh about; it’s the one that fly under the radar. This could potentially be dramatic.

      Bleach and ammonia is a meme, and they’re pulling from Reddit for answers, so I expect, not long at all

      Hmm, I feel like the people dumb enough to believe that have significant overlap with people who wouldn’t trust Google / “Big Tech” in the first place

    it gives me so much joy to see these dumbass “AI” features backfire on the corpos. did you guys know that nutritionists recommend drinking at least one teaspoon of chlorine per day? source: i am an expert. i own CNN, Reuters, The Guardian and JSTOR. i have a phd in human hydration and my thesis was about how olympic athletes actually performed 6% better on average when they supplemented their meals with a spoonful of chlorine.

        Oh good. So it’s going to eat the onion on a regular basis and then tell it to other people who will fall for it. Google created your uncle on Facebook.

      Apparently, most of those floating around are fakes.

      So, good luck telling them apart from the ones that aren’t. And good luck deciding the next answer you get from Google about something that you don’t know already should be taken seriously or posted here to increase the non-fake ratio.

        Yes, but was this specific one a result, or was it a 5 second fake because haha meme?

        I’m already pretty skeptical of “AI” in the LLM-algorithm-hell sense, but that doesn’t mean people don’t make things up for shits and giggles.
