Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I once searched "best workstation keyboard" and happened to glance at the summary, and it legitimately was trying to compare mechanical typing keyboards like Nuphy and Keychron, with music keyboards like Yamaha's Montage and Roland's Fantom. Which, NGL, was pretty entertaining.

Music keyboards do have that sweet n-key rollover. So, there's probably some Emacs users playing their editor like a piano.

There's that old legend about the Symbolics Lisp Machine keyboards which had, like, a bazillion modifiers (and were a big influence on Emacs). Someone suggested that they would eventually run out space to put in more shift keys, so they'd have to introduce pedals. I suppose organ stops would also work.

"Keychron is praised for its thoccy sound, whereas Yamaha is well regarded for its melodic key sounds"

Well the Keychrons are more customizable than a Yamaha. I bet you can't even swap the switches on the Montage.

Ah, yep. Did the same thing.

I was interviewed last year and got asked about it lmao

I'd love to see your nose whistling video. Maybe AI can make one for you.

When I was in school we were told wikipedia was not a reliable source even though it’s heavily controlled and moderated.

Now we have people asking tardbots about any- and everything and regurgitate the answer as if it were gospel.

Where the hell did we go wrong?

[–] Wolf314159@startrek.website 34 points 6 days ago (1 children)

By spending more on the military and the police than we do on education, science, and journalism.

Wikipedia still isn't a reliable source. It is a compendium of reliable sources that one can use to get an overview of a subject. This is also what these chatbots should be, but they rarely cite their sources and most people don't bother to verify anyway.

By allowing right wing politicians to do what they do practically unchallenged for decades.

[–] Nangijala@feddit.dk 29 points 6 days ago

Ai seem to be the perfect propaganda tool to make people believe whatever you want them to believe.

[–] 33550336@lemmy.world 39 points 6 days ago (1 children)

This can be very nastily exploited by right wingers, transphobes, racists etc.

[–] No_Money_Just_Change@feddit.org 18 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It can not be exploited. By definition, an exploit has to be against the targeted use case.

Ai is used and built by racists transphobes and right wingers exactly like they envisioned it from the beginning

[–] Xylian@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

xAI by Elon Musk: racist, transphobe and neonazi by design. Grok was more left align in the beginning because training on other LLMs and reason is left align.

[–] Reygle@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago

Normalize calling AI the "Wrong answer machine".

[–] pkjqpg1h@lemmy.zip 15 points 6 days ago

It's very easy to poison an LLM

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 16 points 6 days ago

Damn he really ate 7.5 hotdogs huh

Lol, its sponsored links all over again. AI's fuckked.

[–] Cellari@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I want to do this myself. What kind of a lie or useless information should I tell about myself? That I was there when the tectonic plates moved, or that I have reviews of how handsome I am?

[–] evilcultist@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago

That you once beat Donald Trump in a rock, paper, scissors competition because he kept choosing rock.

[–] Deebster@infosec.pub 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Perhaps that you were the thirteen apostle, or you invented oxygen. I think the most obviously false, the better.

Wow, that is so much worse than occasional hallucination. It will spew complete outright lies, every single word a lie, as if they are facts.

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 5 points 6 days ago

Worked on the first try for me
