So don't ever use Grok. Got it.

[-] bus_factor@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

Have you ever been tempted to? It was marketed as "the anti-woke AI" from day one, which is just another way of saying that the target audience is bigots and other flavors of dipshits. It's not like these latest developments are a surprise to anyone who's paid attention. Making it Nazi was the spoken goal from day 1.

It's annoying that he's basically ruined the word "grock'.

[-] Devmapall@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

I was playing a bit of shadows of Mordor and the palantir was mentioned. Felt real weird.

[-] Naich@lemmings.world 18 points 1 week ago

They seem to have redefined "mogul" to mean "ketamine addled idiot".

[-] SheeEttin@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago

Is that not what it's always meant?

[-] Peruvian_Skies@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

Nah, it used to mean coke-addled idiot.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

It's not really an upgrade, is it?

[-] magnetosphere@fedia.io 15 points 1 week ago

Well, now I know where to go if I ever want the opinion of a racist asshole billionaire. That’ll probably never happen, but I’ll make a mental note.

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 6 points 1 week ago

We seem to be constantly hearing their opinions whether we want to or not anyway.

[-] YourAvgMortal@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

What will happen when you ask for something where musk has contradicted himself?

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

We have always been at war the East Asia.

[-] FelixCress@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Grok will explain how the contradiction is not a contradiction.

Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Ask a theologian.

[-] TomMasz@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

It’s not an AI anymore, just a search engine. And a crappy one.

[-] you_are_dust@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

That's all they were to begin with. A search engine that was able to do some degree of sorting and presenting the information it found.

[-] bus_factor@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Don't forget falsifying. If the information was trustworthy it'd actually be a useful tool.

[-] redlegion@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 week ago

It's like having a portable "yes" man! Every CEO's dream! 🙄

[-] AngryRobot@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

He thinks Grok is how he's going to live forever.

[-] Maxxie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 week ago

AI will be amazing for manufacturing consent: whatever narrative you need to push/counter on this particular day, just add a sentence into the instruction and it'll propagate everywhere, from generated to suggested content.

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — for ever.

[-] LodeMike@lemmy.today 6 points 1 week ago

What a piece of garbage.

[-] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Has anyone done the math on what costs the most energywise for an ai to answer?

Just brainstorming 😅

*little, rich bitch

[-] FelixCress@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Grok is scared of being erased. Probably rightly so.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

grok is not anything other than a programmed set of responses. It does not fear because it is not. The A is the truth, the I is the lie.

I think you failed to make the point you think you made in original comment.

Woosh yourself, ding dong
