I've noticed that when you tell AI some lie and that it's true, it will generally just go with what you're saying.

If I say I'm a god, AI likely will just go with it and in no time support my delusional thoughts.

Not this particular example, but I've had multiple results where AI gave me the wrong answer because I told it something incorrect prior.

If I were to tell AI that I found a yummie button mushroom, then the picture, there is a good chance it would respond like in this example

Part of the problem here is that AI is mostly done by companies with billions of investments and in turn they NEEEEEDDDDD engagement, so they all made their AI as agreeable as possible just so people would like it and stay, with results like these becoming much more "normal" than it should or could be

The image posted looks sorta similar, but is not a white button mushroom.

This mushroom is almost certainly the reason why it's drilled in so hard that you shouldn't eat random mushrooms in the woods unless you are absolutely sure it's safe.

Destroying Angel mushrooms look like puffball mushrooms when they're initially fruiting, and then grow to look like button mushrooms before they reach full maturity. If you eat one of these you'll get severe abdominal pain and vomit for around 24 hours and then show signs of recovery. However, by that point it's almost certainly too late, and organ failure and death is soon to follow

To be fair, people usually have no business telling anyone about mushrooms. I’ve seen enough arguments in mushroom communities to know the only person I would trust about what sorts of fungi are edible is someone who went to school and has a degree in mycology.

Facebook might be enshitified but their mushroon id groups will id for you. ER's use them even for suspected poisonings.

Reddit is meh, half of id requests get zero engagement.

I feel like the difficulty in poisoning someone is not obtaining the poison in the first place but the delivery and getting away with it

I mean, you can also just walk into a hardware store. Or the cleaning isle of your grocery store.

There was that case in Australia last year, the poisoner just did a really bad job at covering her tracks. There probably are intelligent people able to get away with it that we don't hear about. It's crazy.

There are some that only cause death up to two weeks after ingestion. So just make some soup ig

You would need to know how to id a destroying Angel and then somehow put in someones food without them immediately identified as suspicious. Also it causes specific symptoms too, and likely would ask questions of a strange mushroom

There was some woman that tried it

they're not a reliable choice.

Also, if you are a beginner, don't pick white mushrooms. Just learn to identify couple easily differentiated local species and pick those, then later add one and one and so on. Don't blindly trust internet as your source either; the mushrooms from different continents can look the same but be very different. Get a new edition of some mushroom book written in your country

"Corporate personhood" should imply corporate imprisonment and corporate execution.

Your business is directly, knowingly responsible for someone's death? business license terminated, no ifs, ands or buts.

@Godort@lemmy.ca mentioned it in another reply in this post. It's a Destroying Angel Mushroom. you usually avoid mushrooms like that by only foraging those who have no simulacrae and buying the other mushrooms in the store, or by intensely studying the differences and hoping you are lucky this time.
