I'm convinced the Amish may have the right idea.
Ted Kaczynski wasn't as crazy as we all thought
No no. He was.
I mean, aside from the whole bombing thing what did he do wrong?
later
Okay, okay... But besides the bombing, the sabotage, the vandalism, the harassment, and the animal cruelty, what did he really do wrong?
Or when tech is in the hands of a select few vile men, it is becoming a net negative. It definitely is not for the public good.

Software Engineer here: computers were a mistake.
Computers are great, it’s capitalism that is the issue.
Specifically on the tech thing then. They have a lot of things wrong lmao
Apparently they are over 400.000 in the US now. Time to join!
Not haywire. It was specifically prompted to get that output.
It was asked leading questions about embarrassing topics, but the over-the-top, fawning praise for Musk was baked into the responses without being specifically requested in the prompts.
It's really just an affirmation machine for tech bros
I think this is the main story. I don't think it's new info, but it confirms the issue persists: this LLM is so heavily trained to fawn over Musk that it doesn't exercise any application of context or attempt to find truth.
Which is sad.
This headline makes it sound like someone has doubts about Musk's pee drinking skills. That seems a little judgemental. Pretty sure Grok knows his master well.
Pee drinking is somewhat impressive, but can he eat shit and die?
Of course he can’t, he’s too much of a loser to eat shit and die. He couldn’t manage it.
Eat shit? Maybe. But eat shit and die? No sir. No way. I won’t believe it unless I see it for myself.
“I’m a Grok guy,” said Vance. “I think it’s the best. It’s also the least woke!”
What a fucking idiot. Really wants everyone to go back to sleep
Well now let's hear it out...
I can’t stop laughing at these, what a great day of shitposting
We're gonna need to bring Bubba in to evaluate...
In this case I'm inclined to believe the dumb llm 100%.
I think they're programming the ketamine into the LLM at this point
Did it really go haywire, or was it actually giving 100% accurate facts and they are just claiming it went haywire? 🤔
BREAKING: Chatbot says random bullshit!
This is undeniable proof that Grok is the most accurate.
And with headlines like this, why the fuck do I care about any of the news coming out? This is so fucking ridiculous and stupid. Like come on. What the fuck are we doing in 2025?
Sometimes I like to find top headlines from other countries.
Like damn, your country's biggest news today is that you're replacing outdated lights with eco-friendly alternatives?
Must be nice.
Squander your talent? Unthinkable!
After the posts were deleted, Musk responded in a statement, saying, “Earlier today, Grok was unfortunately manipulated by adversarial prompting into saying absurdly positive things about me. For the record, I am a fat retard.”
I have to hand it to him, that's a pretty funny response.
Under no circumstances do you have to "hand it to him".

...Drat!
I've got a question not related to the topic of the post: why is this site so often posted, when it has an ad blocker banner that you can't just click a button to dismiss?
Why is this site considered acceptable? Do they generally do good work, and so people agree that disabling adblockers are worth it?
I'm just so used to sites that do that being shit upon and posters linking them told to go fuck themselves and smarten up
I mean, it is funny and all... but at this point, i'm just so tired of all this shit, I don't even care. 😮💨
I miss my RiF keyword filters.
Looks like has an eye infection probably took a money shot in the eyeball.
It just looks like a healing black eye to me so I think this is just an old photo.

Damn, a self-conscious retard
...our governing hierarchy is just a long list of who's blowing who, isn't it?
it's a snake blowing it's own tail
