@aral tiktok should just be blocked alltogether as a source of relevant information. There is no info of relevance coming from that platform.

@aral Probably the same type of person poisioning the AI data.Also as side irony. We where afraid that AI would kill us if it read the Internet. We never expected it to be this way.

@aral Is it possible they want to write over history with bullshit just so it can be something they control?

@aral when you've got as much power as they do, having partially merged with governments of several large countries, you don't need intelligence as being evil is enough.

@a1ba @Toasterson @aral maybe you can even start appreciating these garbage ai responses for what they are, and I guess people already do since at least it makes them laugh sometimes. If only they weren't shoved in your face as a solution to all of your problems by the most popular search engine on the planet

@aral okay but did you know the word "boycott" came after people decided they hated Chuck BoycottOr that "shrapnel" was named after Hank Shrapnel who made the type of grenadeOr that "dunce" is a reference to a guy named Duns ScotusOr that "saxophone" was named after Mr. Sax

@aral NGL Pretty sure this is referencing 'Roland the Farter' (legendary for his performance of 'a whistle, a tumble and a fart' to the point he was given land and titles by the king for making him laugh so much with it) but if AI returned that, people would assume that it was fake. So they changed it to John Backflip.

@aral Maybe the idea that administering every business organization can be mastered in 4 years is absurd.Maybe these beaurocrats should be replaced with HR and logistics algorithms cuz this Jack Welchian financialization shell game bs IS NOT working.If only the people in charge would put resources towards replacing the most expensive, least directly productive employees. But they won't fOr SoMe ReAsOnAlmost like it was America's capital, not Silicon Valley's genius, that enabled innovation

@aral I mean, how'd you even counteract that? It's just quick, broad research returning the first result it finds. Limiting it to authoritative sources is a clusterfuck.I only know it's wrong by being aware of the "Thomas Running invented running by walking twice at the same time" meme. (plus the silly name)

@aral LLMs have made almost every major company go braindead. They see only dollar signs and the fact it's a fast changing field, so throw as much money as they can at it and throw everything they have into making it happen without ever stopping to realize that they really aren't going to work for any of the things these companies think they will.It's really insane to watch from the outside as they all lose their minds over this. I would find it funny except ultimately we all bear the fallout.
