The MAHA report got me thinking. We need a concise slur for people who blindly copy and paste LLM outputs. It needs to say that the person is lazy, ignorant, gullible, disrespectful, and dishonest all at once. Something along the lines of NPC. Maybe parrot? But that’s not too catchy. Any ideas?

Asked ChatGPT. It gave me a couple of good ones:

  • Bothead
  • Promptpuppet
  • Promptparrot
  • Neuroshill
[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

damn I really like neuroshill but realistically bothead is a lot easier to say.

[–] olafurp@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Yeah, I like it also, bothead was interesting also but comparing it with metalhead would imply the meaning bot enthusiast.

I used my own brain now and came up with promptsimp

[–] fox2263@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago

🤣 did you blindly follow it, promptpuppet?

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 days ago

'olafurp' it is 🤗

That's good, because they serve up sloppy seconds.

We need another one for people who think posting, “I asked chatGPT and this is what it said…” is in anyway contributing to anything.

[–] BertramDitore@lemm.ee 57 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I stopped listening to a daily news podcast partly because the hosts did this live on the air. They’d ask ChatGPT for a statistic, then say “ChatGPT says it’s 37% of Americans” or whatever. They never fact-checked it, and based on how consistently wrong LLMs have been in my experience, it called into question everything else they said.

It’s a great way to instantly lose trust in another person’s abilities.

[–] glaber@lemm.ee 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That might be one of the most unhinged used of ChatGPT I've seen yet. There's virtually no linguistic difference between saying one number or another, all possible answers are gonna look identical to the machine. I'd like to see these slopgobblers try to ask the same question several times and see the results

The French have a good inside joke. Just call them cat farts.

[–] biofaust@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I see what you did there. But would you call the perpetrators farts or the slop they produce?

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

That seems to be a subset of the same thing to me.

Combining yours with the one by @vala@lemmy.world, we get "Slop gobbler"

[–] nonentity@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Slop slingers are purveyors, slop gobblers are consumers.

I could support "lemmings" for sure. They follow one another to their manufactured death, just like those rodents in the movie that someone swept off a cliff.

Stupid is pretty accurate.

But ... "moron" is already right over there.

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah but being nitpicky about what specific kind of moron is what makes us human.

In school, plagiarists are called cheaters. This seems the same to me.

[–] ChexMax@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

But they're worse than cheaters. They're cheating off of hallucinations. It's like you're cheating off of spark notes for the movie instead of the book, totally unaware that they made a bunch of changes. They're stupid cheaters.

Coworker regularly sends me llm slop when i ask him a question. He has a PhD in relevant field. Its so ridiculous. I end up answering the question myself but realizing thats just freeing him from the work so just going to start replying that’s unacceptable

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 38 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Respond with "Chatgpt, write me a reply thanking my coworker for the answer"

[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Tell the boss. Or the boss' boss. Because if the bean counters get even a hint that a whole PhD can be replaced with a computer, they'll do it yesterday. And then you're in the same situation with less overhead.

Why don't you ask chatgpt to come up with a slur?

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

ironically. a good idea

i did, and it suggested LLMmings, which makes me suspicious about the one who suggested that @NRay7882@lemmy.world

[–] NRay7882@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Well if a bot on the internet gave you the answer then it must be true.
