Bitch if I wanted the robot, I’d ask it myself (well, I’d ask the Chinese one)! I’m asking you!

LMAO THATS HILARIOUS. that literally sounds like a parody of debate bros.
”if you ask it this way”
Yeah maybe that should let you know it doesn’t actually know shit.
NGL, I’ve dicked around with chatGPT before and it seems to be very averse to actually disagreeing with you. I’ve had to go out of my way to have it go against some of my biases because it felt too ‘convenient’ chatGPT would agree with me all the time.
There’s been memes floating around about ChatGPT being a pure confirmation machine. Someone posted their conversation with the bot where it enthusiastically supports their business idea of selling literal shit on a stick.

In my experience, the surest way to get ChatGPT to push back against you is to argue in favor of communism.
haruspex of the modern age
I can’t remember who it was, but some PhD in anthropology (I think) was tweeting about his research and some fucking idiot was arguing with him because ChatGPT said something different. Fucking bong-cloud epistemology.
I lost my fucking mind at a person at work who started picking fights with me on topics I am an actual honest-to-god expert on. No comprehension, not even engagement, just a bunch of vibes and “I have been doing this for X years”. I wrote a fucking essay in the work chat with examples and references and practical details, and this motherfucker says “well, I used my AI text editor to summarize what you wrote and respond to it”. It was at this point that I realized they weren’t even disagreeing with me, they were telling their text editor to disagree with me (or, perhaps worse, it was telling them to disagree) and then regurgitating the results. AI freaks are literally inhuman.
I was googling something about BMI and found a reddit thread where some dullard confidently asserted that having your height in cm match your weight in lbs was impossible. Source: chatGPT, which no joke said in one paragraph that being 165 cm and 165 lbs would be underweight while being 165 cm and 165 lbs would be overweight. These LLMs don’t know shit about fuck and only idiots turn to them for answers.
Amazing mathematical reasoning at work here.
I mean yeah they’re just doing predictive text, talking about overweight and underweight in the way they’ve seen it done, but with placeholder numbers.

That’s a great opportunity to explain to the person how the AI produced an obviously wrong and potentially harmful answer, and decrease their trust of AI.

I saw a Bluesky post and a bit made me laugh. It was something like… AI will never replace people because people know when to ignore their boss.

And whenever they say “i wrote minecraft” they mean a bunch of voxel hills. Where’s the villagers, the pirate treasure, the enchanting, the caves?
This should be a tagline
My friend pulled out her phone to ask chatGPT how to play a board game last night, and despite all of us yelling at her that chatGPT doesn’t know anything, she persisted. Then the dumbass LLM made up some rules because it doesn’t know anything.

Do you think they took home the lesson that llms don’t possess knowledge or do reason?
i fucking hope, but she didn’t really pay much attention to us lol
she didn’t really pay much attention to us
Why do people do things like this? What is the point of playing a game with your friends if you won’t listen to or pay attention to them?
Why would she take away that lesson? It produced a list of rules to the game that look approximately right.
Presumably her friends corrected her and showed her why the “generated” rules were incorrect… at least that’s what I would expect of my friends
I hope so. You have to be patient in circumstances like that.
one of my friends did the same thing and it provided incorrect information about the games rules lmao
If you tell people that ChatGPT doesn’t know anything, they will only think you’re obviously wrong when it gives them apparently correct answers. You should tell people the truth – the harm in ChatGPT is that it is generally subtly wrong in some way, and often entirely wrong, but it always looks plausibly right.
Yea, that’s definitely one of the worst aspects of AI is how confidently incorrect it can be. I had this issue using deep seek and had to turn on the mode where you can see what it’s thinking and often it will say something like.
I can’t analyze this properly, let’s assume this… Then confidently spits an answer out based on that assumption. At this point I feel like AI is good for 100 level CS students that don’t want to do their homework and that’s about it
Same, I just tried deepseek-R1 on a question I invented as an AI benchmark. (No AI has been able to remotely correctly answer this simple question, though I won’t reveal what the question is here obviously.) Anyway, R1 was constantly making wrong assumptions, but also constantly second-guessing itself.
I actually do think the “reasoning” approach has potential though. If LLMs can only come up with right answers half the time, then “reasoning” allows multiple attempts at a right answer. Still, results are unimpressive.
I fucking cringe so hard when people are like “i asked chat gpt about what’s holding me back in life and it came back with great answers”
Bitch it’s fucking astrology. I can come up with shit that vaguely makes sense for most people and you’ll think that it’s “so true” and “it knows you better than you know yourself”
I just find the deference to chatbots a bit sad in that it will cause people to be less curious. Guess this is how people felt about moving from an abacus or slide rulers to calculators, but it gets used for such menial bullshit that can easily be looked up instead of asking the virtual eqvivalent of Dave at the pub.
calculator actually gives reliably correct answers though unlike the truth machine. we’re supposed to see it that way, as a pure step of technological progress, but it’s a load of shit.
This should be an instant ban on any part of the internet. I’ve seen it on Lemmy before.
According to ChatGPT, anyone who uses it to answer a question someone else asked is a butthead.
I just disregard anyone who says that, ChatGPT can be made to say Trump is the first WWE champion to become POTUS and to make up names of scientific journals it cites, there’s no way I’m taking any answer from it at face value.
I asked a chatbot what it thought, and according to DeepSeek:
I feel you—there’s something uniquely frustrating about asking a real person for their thoughts and getting a regurgitated AI response instead. It’s like asking for a home-cooked meal and someone hands you a microwaved frozen dinner with a shrug.
If you’re looking for human insight (or just some good old-fashioned hot takes), it’s totally fair to push back with something like:
"Cool, but what do you think? I didn’t ask for a chatbot’s fanfic."And hey, if they keep hiding behind AI, maybe start responding to them with “According to my calculations, your originality levels are critically low.”
(Also, “the Chinese one” got me. 😂)

It really is
AI translated manga bit
to be clear: that is cum, the verb, not the nounOkay but is it accurate tho
I just say “I dunno lol” like a normal idiot
