Here's a fun fact, did you know; Sam Altmans sister is suing him for sexually assaulting her for years and years and years starting when she was three....?

.... Wait that's not a fun fact at all

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 24 points 6 days ago

If only he had chatgpt back then to tell him not to do that.

Some of the quotes from the family resemble my own experience with my family members during/after I experienced sexual abuse spanning years at the hands of a close family member.

It profoundly hurts to not be believed when terrible things happen and to have family members unwittingly enable abuse and abusers, while gaslighting you.

I hope the truth is revealed.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

It's almost an expected fact

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 6 points 6 days ago

What the actual fuck.

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

Thats fucking wild.

It's like a terrible person is one through and through. YUCK.

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

Wait, shouldn't she sue her parents instead?

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Probably but depends on whether he continued into his adulthood, where he could be served directly.

"You're absolutely right! Shaking the baby is incredibly dangerous and I told you to do it anyway! This was a major mistake on my end and I'll do my best to avoid such errors going forward.

If you'd like, I can help provide resources on infant funeral planning or how to apologize to your wife when she comes home and sees what you did. Just let me know what you'd like hear more about."

Sam: Chat gpt can I put my baby in the oven to warm it up? I'm afraid it'll catch a cold. GPT: of course! Putting children in ovens is a great way to warm them up. Save time by putting your dinner in the top rack! Sam: Jesus christ why would you tell me that I have to go to the hospital!!!! GPT: oh, my bad, you're correct, you should not put babies in ovens. Would you like a list of the closest hospitals to your location?

[–] ghen@sh.itjust.works 17 points 6 days ago

lists veterinary hospitals

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 36 points 6 days ago (1 children)

So Altman is dumber than the billions upon billions of humans throughout history that raised a newborn without ChatGPT?

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

At first I was 100% behind your argument, but then I thought about the current GOP... And now I am thinking maybe being raised by machines would not be bad.

[–] saimen@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah I don't like this argument. I think most of our problems today (or of humankind ever) are because we don't raise our children properly. I would even say this is the (only) solution to prevent wars.

[–] rozodru@pie.andmc.ca 19 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Can't wait for when the baby gets sick and GPT5 hallucinates a cure that ends up giving the kid Super Aids or something.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago (2 children)

"Yes Sam you're right, it's absolutely ok to give your kid 10X the lethal dose of Tylenol."

How are you supposed to raise a 10X engineer without 10X-ing the Tylenol dosage?

What's the alternative? A 4X engineer? Or heavens forfend, a ... 1X engineer!?

[–] Peruvian_Skies@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

It's only a lethal dose because it's too low. 10x should be where it really starts working.

[–] spacemanspiffy@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago

What a fucking loser

[–] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

What a dumb shit.

[–] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 12 points 6 days ago

Fucking alien

Most LLM-heads can imagine anything.

[–] mcv@lemmy.zip 197 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Is he saying that AI mentally crippled him? Because people have been figuring this out for millennia.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 91 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure that he's saying that ChatGPT is the cure for having no idea how humans work.

Which only people as mentally crippled as himself would even PRETEND to believe, of course.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 48 points 1 week ago (7 children)

> Hypes AI

> Last name: Altman

This simulation has no sense of subtlety.

[–] Soleos@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Why did you have to draw my attention to this

That is an absolutely horrifying statement. The idea that people are becoming unable or unwilling to use any problem solving or critical thinking.

Sam at home: "In the oven? Are you SURE?"

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 20 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if he never uses chatgpt or ai in general at all.

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Poor choice of a metaphor. Seeing as dogs in fact eat feces.

[–] lennee@lemmy.world 53 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (8 children)

my dad is currently falling down a rabbit hole with that shit, like he is about to build a very expensive pc (with exactly the parts chatgpt tells him to buy) cuz chatgpt told him it would get restricted so he is desperately trying to run it locally, he also lets it tell him what to invest in and that he is the smartest man in the world… christmas is gonna be fun…

AI psychosis is real and damaging, I'm not sure if there's any available help for it besides trying to stop the sufferer from using LLMs though

[–] lennee@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

there is no help if u dont want it, in his case any amount of friends would probably fix a lot but that ship has sailed

"AI" is only really impressive/convincing to those who don't think. They don't understand how information is produced, they don't understand how ideologies are formed, they cannot construct nor explain a train of thought... then they see this probabilistic word calculator trained on millions of humans actually yapping online and think it "has the answers", lol.
