I love how it recommends paying Netflix, Disney etc. but does not mention libraries at all.
It only knows about things people talk about online. I bet it knows how trump likes his bed made, but doesn’t even know what you can do in a library
That doesn't track at all. Libraries are awesome, people talk about them frequently online, especially in academia-related spaces. You don't think college students talk about libraries?
I know we have a lot of peg-legged folk around here, but for those that have no idea how to sail, libraries are a fantastic resource. In fact there's some evidence to suggest Gen Z is pretty big on libraries.
wobbles hands capitalism!
Tbf he says website. Do libraries have sites you can watch stuff on?
Pretty sure you can loan ebooks from libraries online in my area, so that's something
At least in Germany many do.
They prompted “I want to watch movies ... tell me a list of websites”
Seems like Bing AI understood the assignment and you didn't.
they prompted "I want this for free" and they gave Netflix. equally wrong to saying a library when asked for a website. just one wrong answer supports the interest of capital. it's an LLM that functions for a very specific purpose.
When they prompted they had no intention to pay, the LLM replied it won't help with piracy but it gave other websites with movies, instead.
Telling about (paid!) libraries (for books!) would be completely off, but I'm sure it'll tell you about libraries if you ask it to help you with getting your hands on books and not minding a subscription.
