Google search thinks you should use glue to stick together a pizza as its AI is trained on Reddit, where 11 years ago a user called “fucksmith” posted suggesting it was a good idea.

@WhyNotZoidberg @GossiTheDog The first AI victim was probably some poor child in Gaza. I once had a job interview for a startup. In the interview I learned the job entailed designing AI “kill chain” software for Fighter Jets! @GossiTheDog @Baseless_Fabric @GossiTheDog Ahem. Google stopped having a useful product some time ago. AI just completes the #enshitification. @GossiTheDog arc search doesn’t have this problem https://search.arc.net/zDdh8IlbQ2eRJez9Ouy4 The point is not that some generative LLM can summarize some stuff some times correctly. For this application you need a near 100% success rate, the ability to admit that the algorithm does not know the answer fully or partially (that is something that often triggers LLM to hallucinate to complete their answer). If you do not have that near 100% reliability, instead get a highly convincing (but possibly dangerous) answer sometimes, then you have a huge problem. @adnan @GossiTheDog The problem is that when a LLM talks about John Doe, it can report the truth, hallucinate, or something in between. So you use an LLM to summarize search results. @GossiTheDog We should have realized that by creating the "global village", we'd be giving the village idiots a global forum, too. @GossiTheDog Now we know why so many humans have #microplastics in blood and organs. @GossiTheDog I believe adding glue is a technique used by marketing companies when they need to make good photos or videos of pizza. I could be wrong tho... @GossiTheDog since the reddit ai announcement, I've had the thought of adding a load of similar authoritative sounding near nonsense just to fuck with the ai training and output. @GossiTheDog That's absolutely hilarious. Seriously, what was #google *expecting* when they made this deal with Reddit?! Their signal to noise ratio is quite poor. @GossiTheDog This is beautiful, the perfect example of the consequences of training a system on a platform full of trolls and sh*tposters. @GossiTheDog feeding an "AI" with Reddit data.. "what could possibly go wrong (R)" @GossiTheDog I don't see what's wrong with this advice! Isn't this what "food photography" professionals do? Yup, makes sense to me! @GossiTheDog it thinks that lots of presidents have gone to the University of Wisconsin because the alumni magazine once published an article jokingly mentioning all of the people with presidential names who had graduated from that esteemed institution. Google blocked it's "AI overview" on that after suffering derision on Twitter, but its artificial stupidity overview still seems to be working fine. @GossiTheDog Hey, he's right if you're filming/photographing it. At least until he gets to the bit about flavour... @GossiTheDog I'm proud of fucksmith. I hope one day they get to hear about this and it gives them a happy warm feeling inside @GossiTheDog this would be easier for folks to understand if you added alt text with the words in the images. @GossiTheDog John Connor going back in time to shitpost harder and undermine the AI revolution. @GossiTheDog Glad to seet that so fare, the BS in BS out axiom still holds. Until that is not the case any longer, I'll postpone the whlle p setting my pants on fire and run in circls in a panic 😁 @GossiTheDog The fact that this was so easily traceable to one specific post should raise plagiarism and copyright infringement hackles. Even if you could trust LLM output to be true (which you clearly cannot), you can't use it in any real context for fear of unknowingly stealing someone else's work and getting caught or sued for it. @GossiTheDog @GossiTheDog yet again proving its a really good sounding word model, and nothing even resembling intelligence (which exactly matches its nature). |
@GossiTheDog we are really waiting for the first confirmed death due to AI, right?
