I'm convinced the Amish may have the right idea.

Ted Kaczynski wasn't as crazy as we all thought

I mean, aside from the whole bombing thing what did he do wrong?

[-] Jerkface@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

later

Okay, okay... But besides the bombing, the sabotage, the vandalism, the harassment, and the animal cruelty, what did he really do wrong?

[-] jali67@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Software Engineer here: computers were a mistake.

[-] Quokka@quokk.au 5 points 3 weeks ago

Computers are great, it’s capitalism that is the issue.

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@piefed.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Specifically on the tech thing then. They have a lot of things wrong lmao

[-] kilgore_trout@feddit.it 1 points 3 weeks ago

Apparently they are over 400.000 in the US now. Time to join!

[-] frongt@lemmy.zip 39 points 3 weeks ago

Not haywire. It was specifically prompted to get that output.

[-] sundray@lemmus.org 45 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] nondescripthandle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 3 weeks ago

It's really just an affirmation machine for tech bros

[-] andrewrgross@slrpnk.net 16 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 37 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 25 points 3 weeks ago

Pee drinking is somewhat impressive, but can he eat shit and die?

[-] natecox@programming.dev 11 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

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.

[-] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 32 points 3 weeks ago

“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

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago

Well now let's hear it out...

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

I can’t stop laughing at these, what a great day of shitposting

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

We're gonna need to bring Bubba in to evaluate...

[-] db2@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago

In this case I'm inclined to believe the dumb llm 100%.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 weeks ago

I think they're programming the ketamine into the LLM at this point

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 6 points 3 weeks ago

Did it really go haywire, or was it actually giving 100% accurate facts and they are just claiming it went haywire? 🤔

[-] oneofmany@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

BREAKING: Chatbot says random bullshit!

[-] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

This is undeniable proof that Grok is the most accurate.

[-] Scotty_Trees@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

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?

[-] bytesonbike@discuss.online 1 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] mystik@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Squander your talent? Unthinkable!

[-] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] sns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 weeks ago

Under no circumstances do you have to "hand it to him".

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

[-] ekZepp@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

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. 😮‍💨

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 3 weeks ago

I miss my RiF keyword filters.

[-] Silar@lemmy.ml 0 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like has an eye infection probably took a money shot in the eyeball.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

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?

[-] Sonor@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

it's a snake blowing it's own tail
