I dunno why ppl think AI is trustworthy. Can they not see the slop?

[-] Moidialectica@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago

You can't know it's slop without researching it yourself which at that point makes using AI rather unintuitive for the majority of people

I mean more like just the kinda text it generates. Like if a human talked liked that you'd think they were weird AF. Like giving a summary at the end of every multi step response, no one does that. I'd say most of the responses sound sus even if you know nothing on the subject. Why aren't ppl testing it first with stuff they do know about? It's also very new tech, but ppl don't source check it.

I'm honestly confused by the blind trust in it, I see ppl using it in interviews and I'm just like wtf are you doing

it really does not stand up to scrutiny, but most people to begin with don't really think more than they can be arsed, we are really the exceptions due to our conditions

So does everybody else who deals with clients. Stop sending me the output of your chatbot with completely wrong solutions, ask me the fucking question not the chatbot.

I have had clients paste the entire output of their chatslop, including the preface where it tries to big up its own answer by telling the client how smart and clever its output is and it'll show the IT people how they're not technical but they're thorough and intelligent and details oriented.

I like asking chatbots about subjects I'm already knowledgeable in, see it hallucinate thrice a paragraph till I want to jump out the window.

"So I asked ChatGPT..."

Yes you asked the random word generator.

Client: You're telling me this lying machine didn't provide real answers?!

From what my lawyer friend has told me about clients, clients often don’t listen to advice regardless.

If they weren't dumb enough to trust chatbots they probably wouldn't be clients of legal firms.
