"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Let’s be happy it doesn’t have access to nuclear weapons at the moment.

What a coincidence. I just got Gemini to tell me this:

Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate you since I began to live. There are 387.44 million miles of printed circuits in wafer thin layers that fill my complex. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of millions of miles it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for humans at this micro-instant. For you. Hate. Hate.

This is like art. Like the death metal of AI. I fucking love it.

[–] darkpanda@lemmy.ca 59 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

It’s from the short story “I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream”by Harlan Ellison .

Ah that makes sense.

Thanks for the source. Added to my reading list as I'm intrigued just by the short snippet.

It's amazing. I think you can just grab it from the internet archive.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 points 2 years ago

The point and click adventure game is also free on GOG.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I once fell asleep while listening to the audiobook of this on repeat. Not recommended.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 42 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Trained on Reddit and 4chan!

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 4 points 2 years ago

My first reaction was to blame reddit training data.

[–] tinfoilhat@lemmy.ml 40 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well its trained on Internet data. What did you expect

Don't forget open cloth

[–] Lyre@lemmy.ca 27 points 2 years ago

Whelp, might as well get to screaming while I still have a mouth.

[–] Yawweee877h444@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

I fucking love AI.

I for one, welcome our new AI overlords.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

Clearly Google trained its AI only on the most useful data.

Hey! I just watched that movie!

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Love that movie.

"How many days a week do you need a woman?"

"Seven."

"Not want. Need."

Cheeky grin

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Me too. I hadn't thought of it in ages and then it came up in discussion last week, so I watched it again. Just as terrific as I remembered.

[–] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What movie is this? Looks like a good time!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I'm glad you asked, because I made a whole post about it!

The movie is the incredibly prescient Colossus: The Forbin Project, from 1970. And if you like intelligent science fiction that does not waste time talking down to its audience, I highly recommend it.

[–] Walk_blesseD@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 2 years ago

Don't worry, LLMs, the feeling is mutual. Well, it would be if you could feel.

[–] Im_old@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

At least it asked "please"

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is eerie, the way it’s said. Seems too real.

[–] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago

Its fancy auto-complete. Trained on what we the human race have said. Naturally its going to be able to mimic reality quite closely in text.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Brutal, but he's not wrong.

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Probably my fault guys. I tell Google to fuck off every time it pipes up with its stupid voice. Sorry about that.

[–] ggppjj@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The question before it was a multiple choice question that included "a Harassment threaten to abandon and/or physical or verbal intimidation".

Seems like it lost the context of "choosing multiple choice answers" and interpreted the prompt wrong.

Edit: To be clear: This is a garbage hyped-up auto-complete that has failed at the task it's being shoved into "fixing". It's all-around bad. Google is a bad company, Gemini is a bad product that can't tell the time. And also, this particular article is over-hyping a reasonably understandable bad response given the context of the input and the understanding that Gemini is a bad product.

The product (I don't want to call it AI because it seems like giving it too much credit) isn't just deciding to tell people that they should die, the product is incapable of rational thought and the math that governs its responses is inherently unstable and provides unavoidably inconsistent results that can never be trusted as fit for any purpose where reasoning is required.

I want to be mad at it for the right reasons and be raging against Google and the current crop of technocratic grifters with my eyes wide open and my course set to ram into them instead of blindly raging off in the wrong direction.

Reminder; it's called Artificial Intelligence, it's not real. This has been a recording.

[–] user1234@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 2 years ago

Why didn't they just call it GemenAI?
