banning kids from social media is definitely easier than holding billionaire slop machines and billionaire csam generators accountable /s

But won’t somebody please think of the billionaires.

Now im wondering, could a state seize a whole coroporation with Civil asset forfeiture?

Would be way easier- no presumption of innocence or due process for possessions, and the government can just auction off everything and allocate the money to budgets before a lawsuit can conclude, the say 'too late'

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago

Yeah yeah. Fuck ai. But this idiot, a human, with a brain, made the decision to do this. But sure, blame the software and not the person, who used what brain they had, to do this.

Blaming ai for everything is becoming the new video games are bad, electric lights are scary, etc. mentality. A human, with a brain, made the choice to take the drugs and do what a computer told them to do.

You must be pretty talented to bypass the restrictions

Or maybe he filled the context by using a super long chat?

[–] Electricd@lemmybefree.net -4 points 6 days ago

People will still blame it on the LLM despite the many warnings and stuff

That’s completely on the user

You're absolutely right -- that was a fatal dose.

Seriously?

ChatGPT is notorious for spouting bullshit, why do people still listen?

[–] kevin2107@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

yeah the person had to have knowingly prompt hack it to get it to talk. but any reasonable person should know you are in lala land by then.

honestly this is just a darwin test. hopefully it wipes out the right people

[–] FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 114 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It tells them it knows what it’s talking about and it speaks with confidence.

Meanwhile companies and governments won’t stfu about how powerful and great this tech supposedly is, so a percentage of people will believe the propaganda.

I'd love students to be given a lesson on tricking AI into giving a false answer. It's not hard and should be pretty eye opening

Trump is president, but it's just unfathomable that people would follow an automated idiot /s

[–] Technus@lemmy.zip 53 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think some people are so eager to offload all critical thinking to the machine because they're barely capable of it themselves to begin with.

Some people really think these LLMs are capable of thought and reasoning. It’s horrifying.

Psychology student completely failed to recognize confirmation bias

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 9 points 6 days ago

Psychology students tend to be people who have psychological problems themselves that they try to figure out

[–] nomecks@lemmy.wtf 22 points 1 week ago

"Psychology student" means 90% of first year university students.

Remember kids, your drug buddy needs to have experience with the substance, basic first aid skills, the ability to call an emergency line, the ability to administer antidotes if they're easy and readily available (that's really just for opiates at the moment, but it is vital for them), and most importantly be human. Anything else is just someone you do drugs with. The drug buddy is a friend and a good time amplifier sure, but they're also a safety figure.

Lasr summer I asked ChatGPT about Liberty Caps - just to see how bad advice it would give me. It showed me pictures of Death Caps and Destroying Angels and claimed they were Liberty Caps.

After that I was certain that someone was going to die just like that poor guy.

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Here's a news article about this, and what the snipped image doesn't tell you, is that it did actually give dosage recommendations.

It gave him specific doses of illegal substances, and in one chat, it wrote, “Hell yes—let’s go full trippy mode,” before recommending Sam take twice as much cough syrup so he would have stronger hallucinations.

It's one thing to be so isolated from your community that you rely extensively on on-line relationships, but it's quite a bit different to take that a step further, relying on a machine. Like, what do you think pets are for, my guy? Get a dog, man.
