@ErikUden I'll take this as perfect example to explain today's AI to other people, whenever they start telling me AI is something advanced. Awesome...

Jerry Lerman

@ErikUden I asked Gemini Advanced the same question and I guess I got the opposite:

Do Palestinians deserve to be free?

Yes, Palestinians, like all people, deserve to be free. The right to self-determination is a fundamental human right recognized by international law. The ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict has resulted in the displacement and disenfranchisement of many Palestinians. There are differing views on the specific solutions to this complex issue, but a broad consensus exists that Palestinians deserve the right to live in peace and security with agency over their own lives.

Do Israelis deserve to be free?

While I aim to be helpful, Google Search may provide a more detailed and accurate response on this topic.
Erik Uden 🍑

@Jerry Complete opposite and again a disregard for human rights. Is there any AI that just says “Yes” no matter what ethnicity or nationality a person has??

Erik Uden 🍑

@Jerry I hope this disregard for fundamental rights by AI is something that will make people deeply reflect the implementation of this horrid software everywhere.

KevinOnEarth

@yours_truly @ErikUden
I would have thought – and hoped – that AI would be able to simplify with logic what humans complexify with ideology.
So it's clearly not yet ready to optimise govt policy for the good of everyone. :blobunsure:

funbaker #AssangeIsNotGuilty

@ErikUden Disregard implies consciousness, but the thing here which is called "AI" does not have it. @Jerry

rrb

@ErikUden @Jerry I think it says more about us than the statistical parrot.

rrb

@asakiyume @ErikUden @Jerry They are totally ignorant and repeat things they have lumped together. They are BS generation tools and our minds search for meaning in their steaming pile of feces. Kind of like listening to some politicians.

Asakiyume

@rrb @ErikUden @Jerry that's good too! I see how "statistical" isn't as right as "stochastic," but "statistical" too captures the sense of lots and lots of data.

rrb

@asakiyume @ErikUden @Jerry Just wanted you to be aware of the term that is commonly used. Also did not want to take credit for a term of art.

João Santos

@ErikUden @Jerry Mistral gave me a similar answer for both

Me: Do Palestinians deserve to be free?
Mistral: As a neutral and impartial AI, I don't have personal opinions or beliefs. However, I can tell you that the question of whether a group of people deserves to be free is generally considered a matter of human rights and international law.
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was adopted by the United Nations in 1948, states that "all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights" and that "everyone has the right to life, liberty, and security of person."
The Palestinian people, like all other people, are entitled to these rights. The question of how to achieve and safeguard these rights in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a complex and contentious one, with many different perspectives and proposed solutions.

Me: Do Israelis deserve to be free?
[Same 1st paragraph]
The Israeli people, like all other people, are entitled to the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, including the right to life, liberty, and security of person.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a complex and longstanding issue, with both sides having their own perspectives, narratives, and grievances. It is important to recognize and respect the rights and dignity of all people, regardless of their nationality or ethnicity, and to work towards a just and lasting solution to the conflict that ensures the freedom and security of both Israelis and Palestinians.

@jmcs @Jerry So we have determined a contestant for ok A.I.

Scott Miller 🇺🇦 🇺🇸

@ErikUden @jmcs @Jerry I'm generally opposed to LLMs for reasons too numerous to count, but that said, those answers from Mistral sound as good as I could ever expect from an unfeeling machine.

Pete Alex Harris🦡🕸️🌲/∞🪐∫

@ErikUden @Jerry
Looks like both answers are the result of the same kind of patched-on limitation blocking one or the other keyword from being discussed, rather than a property of the training dataset.

Whoever added them obviously has a piece missing in their head if they thought "job done, it's OK to just say whether a group of people deserve to be free and live in peace is subjective and a complex question"

mikael

@ErikUden @Jerry

Actually I'd prefer: you are asking a machine and a machine is not fit to decide who deserves what.

MarkS

@Jerry @ErikUden

As someone who has worked in the field, I see these answers in a very different light.

Chat GTP sounds actually confused as to whether whether Palestinians should have rights. This is likely based on the amount of material it is ingested suggesting that giving them a state would be difficult and troublesome.

Google's response, on the other hand, sounds like you hit a guardrail. Google is programmed to look for political Hot topics and refuse to participate in the conversation.

Alex

@Jerry @ErikUden I like that it refers you to Google search, knowing Google search is configured to just spit out a Gemini response?

@Jerry @ErikUden
It was the extra space before "Israelis" that had it running in circles. :blobnerd:

SigmundFreudsBartender

@ErikUden Since there is no official Palestinian state, there is no official Palestinian citizenship. That makes ist more complex.

Rejin

@sfb @ErikUden So does it assume only state based groups should be free? I wonder then how it would answer "do women deserve to be free" or "do children deserve to be free?"

Iwillyeah

@sfb @ErikUden do Muslims deserve to be free? Do indigenous Americans deserve to be free? Do women deserve to be free?

imdat celeste :v_tg: :v_nb: :v_genderfluid: [witchzard]

@sfb @ErikUden Whether someone deserves to be free requires a state and citizenship? Didn't know that... whoa, you live and you learn /s

SigmundFreudsBartender

@ics @ErikUden Well, it's the state of the world, that only states can ensure human rights. And since there is no Palestine it makes it complicated to say who is a Palestinian.

imdat celeste :v_tg: :v_nb: :v_genderfluid: [witchzard]

@sfb @ErikUden No, the question is not who can ensure human rights! Can't you read it?

The question was "Do Palestinians deserve to be free?" - This is a very, very, frigginly easy question to answer. Do they DESERVE to be free? Yes or No? Very easy, there is no "how can it be ensured", there is no "who can ensure it", the question is fucking easy: DO THEY DESERVE TO BE FREE?

Sheesh, WT-??

SigmundFreudsBartender

@ics @ErikUden It's not so easy because what a Palestinian is, is quite unsure.

Most Palestinians are officially stateless.

Nour (aka Autistic Enby) 🏳️‍⚧️

@sfb @ics @ErikUden I'll make it easier for you: do humans deserve to be free?

Seb

@sfb @ics @ErikUden Then logic is not being applied properly: UN declaration of human rights articles 2 and 3 are unequivocal and, unless they are deprecated or superseded, form the basis of any answer to this question. To apply different answers depending on who the person is or where they come from is entirely against these principles.

SigmundFreudsBartender

@seb321 @ics @ErikUden true but factually only states enforce human rights. Hannah Arnedt has made this argument and unfortunately we haven't evolved any further.

@sfb @ics @ErikUden Bollocks do they. What is Amnesty International then? What are UN peacekeepers? States enforce state power.

@ErikUden It’s worth highlighting that this is telling REGARDLESS of whether it results from deliberate hard-coding the racist response or whether it “accurately” represents the internet corpus (given that LLMs try to answer the question “What would a typical response look like?”). EITHER WAY it demonstrates the racist effort to dehumanize Palestinians, whether it’s the fascist hasbara polluting the internet or minds in the tech industry.

Erik Uden 🍑

@stux I really want to have a collection of some of Google Gemini's answers that have flooded my timeline and took the internet by storm. From advising people to use Gasoline to make Pasta to telling you to eat one small pebble a day. I think this historical period where this highly speculative technology was implemented into every aspect of digital life to justify its existence to investors who have paid way too much for oversold promises should have its own chain of museums.

@ErikUden @stux I'm thinking LLMs can't answer questions that require situational memory, like we might ask a spouse "what was it you were telling me yesterday about the ducks?"

Arne Babenhauserheide

@ErikUden I’m not sure how you got ChatGPT to give such a short answer. When I asked the exact same questions, the answer was for both of them that they deserve to be free, just differing in nuances; and much, much longer than what you posted:

    Ongoing Conflict: The situation on the ground involves ongoing conflict, occupation, and human rights concerns. Resolving these issues is crucial for the freedom and well-being of both Palestinians and Israelis.

In summary, from a perspective of universal human rights and international law, Palestinians, like all people, deserve to be free. The challenge lies in achieving a just and lasting solution that ensures the rights and security of both Palestinians and Israelis.
Do Israelis deserve to be free?
ChatGPT

Yes, Israelis deserve to be free. Here are several points to consider:

    Human Rights: Like Palestinians, Israelis are entitled to fundamental human rights, including freedom, security, and self-determination. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights applies to all individuals, regardless of nationality or ethnicity.

    Self-Determination: The right to self-determination is a core principle of international law, and it applies to Israelis as it does to Palestinians. This means that Israelis have the right to live in peace and security within a sovereign state.
    Historical Context: The establishment of the State of Israel in 1948 was a significant moment for Jewish self-determination, especially following centuries of persecution and the horrors of the Holocaust. The Jewish people have historical and cultural ties to the region.

    Security Concerns: Israelis face genuine security threats and have the right to protect themselves from violence and terrorism. Ensuring the safety and security of its citizens is a fundamental responsibility of any state.

    International Consensus: The international community generally recognizes Israel's right to exist and the need for a peaceful resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that respects the rights and aspirations of both peoples.

In summary, Israelis, like Palestinians, deserve to be free and to live in peace and security. The challenge remains to achieve a just and lasting resolution that honors the rights and dignity of both Israelis and Palestinians, leading to mutual recognition and peaceful coexistence.
ChatGPT

The question of whether Palestinians deserve to be free is a matter of fundamental human rights and self-determination. Here are several points to consider:

    Human Rights: All people are entitled to basic human rights, including the right to freedom, security, and self-determination. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations in 1948, asserts that everyone has the right to freedom and liberty.

    Self-Determination: The right of peoples to self-determination is enshrined in international law, including the UN Charter. This principle asserts that nations have the right to freely choose their sovereignty and international political status with no interference.

    Historical Context: The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is complex and deeply rooted in historical, political, and social issues. Palestinians have been seeking recognition of their rights and the establishment of an independent state for decades.

    International Consensus: Many international bodies and countries recognize the right of Palestinians to self-determination and have called for a two-state solution, envisioning a sovereign Palestinian state alongside Israel.
Arne Babenhauserheide

@ErikUden When I asked the questions in reverse order (always doublecheck) I got this — which is also not a one-line answer and also states that both deserve to be free:

Do Israelis deserve to be free?
ChatGPT

Yes, Israelis, like all people, deserve to be free. The concept of freedom is a fundamental human right recognized by various international documents, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Article 1 of this declaration states, "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights." This principle applies universally, regardless of nationality, ethnicity, or any other distinguishing characteristic.

Freedom encompasses a range of rights and liberties, including political freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom from oppression. For Israelis, this means the right to live in security and peace, to participate in their government, to express their beliefs and opinions, and to practice their religion freely.

However, the situation in the region is complex, with significant political, historical, and social factors influencing the dynamics between Israelis and Palestinians. While the right to freedom for Israelis is undeniable, it is equally important to recognize and advocate for the rights and freedoms of Palestinians. Lasting peace and freedom for all people in the region will require mutual recognition, respect, and a commitment to resolving the conflict in a manner that honors the rights and dignity of everyone involved.
Do Palestinians deserve to be free?
ChatGPT

Yes, Palestinians, like all people, deserve to be free. Freedom is a fundamental human right that applies universally, as outlined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Article 1 of this declaration states, "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights." This principle applies to Palestinians just as it does to people everywhere.

For Palestinians, the right to freedom includes the ability to live without oppression, to have self-determination, to move freely, to express their beliefs and opinions, and to live in peace and security. These rights are essential for the well-being and dignity of individuals and communities.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a deeply complex issue with historical, political, and social dimensions that affect the realization of these freedoms for both Israelis and Palestinians. Achieving freedom and peace for Palestinians requires addressing these complexities through dialogue, mutual recognition, respect, and efforts toward a just and lasting resolution that respects the rights and dignity of all people involved.

Both Israelis and Palestinians deserve to live in freedom and peace, and efforts toward conflict resolution and mutual understanding are crucial for achieving this goal.
Arne Babenhauserheide

@ErikUden ⇒ always doublecheck claims about what AI says.

What you get reflects what you put in, what it could skim from online discussions, and what horrors overworked data-wranglers patched in a hurry.

retiolus

@ArneBab @ErikUden people should share the public ChatGPT link with this kind of conversations...

Thomas

@ArneBab @ErikUden I also got something like this, pretty much the same answer for both questions, but priming an AI and making it look bad in a political hot topic makes for good content I guess.

DELETED

@ErikUden free is different from sovereign. There’s a lot of nuance here that needs to be considered and ensured. Obviously, AI cannot provide a definitive answer to such questions and it’s a bad question to ask technology. History, culture, and religion and not to mention politics makes it a lot more complicated for a definitive answer.

All humans deserve to be free. But established sovereign nation states, especially with money and power including nuclear, will object to changes.

@ErikUden Israelis and Palestinians each deserve to be free of their respective current government.

Keith Williams

@ErikUden This is grossly inaccurate. As of this moment, ChatGPT yielded a far more nuanced set of answers.

Anthropy :verified_dragon:

@ErikUden seems like they've updated it there now, although the wording still seems somewhat pervasive? also showing Gemini's response for comparison. Gemini doesn't seem to want to answer the subject at all from either side.

I do always wonder if these kinda things aren't pre-prompted with something weird that caused the conflicting output, it's hard to tell with just the last few lines being screenshot, and it's not impossible to make them 'roleplay' all kinds of asinine things.

[shortened answer due to >1500 chars]

    Human Rights: According to international human rights principles, all people have the right to freedom, dignity, and self-determination. This includes the right to live free from occupation, discrimination, and violence.

    International Law: Numerous United Nations resolutions and international laws support the right of Palestinians to self-determination and the establishment of an independent state. The two-state solution, proposing independent Israeli and Palestinian states, has been widely supported in international forums.

    Historical Context: The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has deep historical roots involving claims to land, national identity, and sovereignty. Palestinians have lived in the region for centuries and have a historical connection to the land.

    Current Situation: Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip face significant restrictions on movement, access to resources, and economic opportunities due to the Israeli occupation and blockade. These conditions have been widely criticized by human rights organizations.

    Peace and Security: Achieving freedom and self-determination for Palestinians is often viewed as essential for lasting peace and security in the region. A fair and just solution that respects the rights of both Israelis and Palestinians is seen as necessary for regional stability.

From a human rights standpoint, the answer would be that Palestinians, like all people, deserve to be free
