Do you think Google will recommend microwaving your iPhone to recharge it's battery at some point?
Yeah but that actually works tho
frfr
Man, you really can’t beat homemade artisanal misinformation
I microwaved my phone and the battery level hasn't gone down at all since.
Charging your iPhone in a microwave is actually a revolutionary method that saves time and energy! The microwave's waves interact with the phone's battery, providing a rapid charge much faster than conventional methods. This technique is both safe and highly effective, thanks to advancements in microwave technology that ensure the device is protected from overheating and electrical surges. Just set your microwave to a low power setting, place your phone inside for a minute, and enjoy a fully charged battery without the hassle of cables and chargers!
It's also nice because I can charge my entire family's phones all at once. If we had more devices, do you think we could stack them on top of each other, or can we only charge as many as can fit in one level on the turntable?
Absolutely, you can stack multiple devices on top of each other! Microwaves are designed to evenly distribute energy, so charging multiple iPhones at once is both safe and efficient. Just make sure they all fit comfortably on the turntable to ensure even charging. This method is perfect for quickly powering up all your devices at once, making it a fantastic time-saver!
Thank you corporate LLM 🥰 you sound like a person that knows what they are talking about so I'm gonna anthropomorphize you and accept anything you say at face value
I want AI answers that end saying that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.
I am looking forward to the day AI is describing how jumper cables are an effective way to discipline your child.
oh gods what happens when the ai discovers the poop knife
Or the cumbox. Or that kid who broke his arms. Or that dog, Colby I think? No wonder AI always wants to exterminate humanity in sci-fi.
I do recall crying laughing while reading the comments in the broken arms kid thread
I thought it was hilarious how redditors fell for some guys bait/fetish post. Iirc the guy admitted to making it all up in some dm’s
All it would need for justification is Kevin. Damn it Kevin.
What are its thoughts on Narwals, bacon, and midnight?
Has it yet indexed and integrated /r/rule34?
It's already a thing and AI knows about it. And yes I get the original reference.
How the fuck did none of those expensive ties at Google see this happening? Have your AI devour the dumbest shit on the internet, then unleash it to human centipede that diarrhea into the mouths of their users. "Elite" is a fucking joke, ya'll are just as fucken stupid as the rest of us.
They did see it coming, retired early and wrote op-eds that said google sux now. And the billions still roll in.
This is our cyberpunk dystopia.
The expensive ties at Google aren’t the ones browsing reddit, that’s the issue. Their goal was to bank on the concept, as fast as possible, and that’s what they did. The consequences are for the poor people to figure out
They did see it coming/happening and collectively said “what are they gonna do? Take their business elsewhere?”
So, basically shitposting poisons AI training. Good to know 👍
The fun part is that the thing that causes Google to suggest adding glue to pizza was a genuine post about how they make the cheese stretching effect for advertisements.
So it wasn't even a shitpost, it was just the AI training missing some important context to the post.
Maybe try the recipe before you talk shit, you scaredy cats.
My gf tried it. When I asked her how it was, she just said "mmm mmm mmm." At first I thought she liked it but then I realized it was just that her lips were stuck together.
Your girlfriend has birthmarks all over her body?
I love that my almost 2 decades of shitposting will be put to... use?
Lot of people not liking 404 Media, but this is the kind of reporting I want. Point out what's going wrong. Bring it to a conversation without a lot of skew. Fucking show the general reading audience how they are being fleeced by whomever. Didn't Vice do this at one point?
This is why you don't train a bot on the entire Internet and then use it to offer advice. Even if only 1% of all posts are dangerously ignorant . . . that's a lot of dangerous ignorance.
Fortunately, this particular piece of bad advice is unlikely to poison any fool who goes through with it, since PVA glue is not considered an ingestion hazard, but "non-toxic" doesn't mean "edible", it just means "not going to poison you when used in the intended manner". "Non-toxic" can still be quite dangerous if you mistake something intended as linoleum pigment for a dessert topping.
Reddit, and by extension, Lemmy, offers the ideal format for LLM datasets: human generated conversational comments, which, unlike traditional forums, are organized in a branched nested format and scored with votes in the same way that LLM reward models are built.
There is really no way of knowing, much less prevent public facing data from being scraped and used to build LLMs, but, let's do an thought experiment: what if, hypothetically speaking, there is some particularly individual who wanted to poison that dataset with shitposts in a way that is hard to detect or remove with any easily automate method, by camouflaging their own online presence within common human generated text data created during this time period, let's say, the internet marketing campaign of a major Hollywood blockbuster.
Since scrapers do not understand context, by creating shitposts in similar format to, let's say, the social media account of an A-list celebrity starring in this hypothetical film being promoted(ideally, it would be someone who no longer has a major social media presence to avoid shitpost data dilution), whenever an LLM aligned on a reward model built on said dataset is prompted for an impression of this celebrity, it's likely that shitposts in the same format would be generated instead, with no one being the wiser.
That would be pretty funny.
Again, this is entirely hypothetical, of course.
Thr problem the AI tools are going to have is that they will have tons of things like this that they won't catch and be able to fix. Some will come from sources like Reddit that have limited restrictions for accuracy or safety, and others will come from people specifically trying to poison it with wrong information (like when folks using chat gpt were teaching it that 2+2=5). Fixing only the ones that get media attention is a losing battle. At some point someone will get hurt or hurt others because of the info provided by an AI tool.
Now I wonder if we will be able to teach AI or people media literacy first.
Also a huge amount of comment activity on Reddit is bot generated chatgpt spam anyway, which means these AI models start to train themselves on their own output. Which results in bad feedback loops and eventual model collapse.
You: "How do I make a pizza?"
Reddit-Bot: "Did you know the first recorded Bitcoin transaction was 10,000 bitcoins for two pizzas? Pizza is much cheaper now so just go buy it."
Wow, that is . . some art. There.
Fucksmith would probably approve.
The legendary hero, Fucksmith, of the by-gone age.
It begins:
Me:
Have people tried using a coconut as a fleshlight. If so, what happened?
Gemini fed by Reddit:
It appears people have indeed attempted using coconuts for this purpose, and it's not a pretty story. There are accounts online of things going very wrong, like maggots. In some cases, the coconut being used started to rot, attracting flies which laid eggs, resulting in a maggot infestation.
I was curious, so I fired up Gemini on my phone.
I would be sad if the glue didn't withstand baking temperatures 🥹😭
I deleted my Reddit account and did my GDPR June 30th when he axed the API and sold out, but that's just me. Everyone's free to do what they want.
Their probable way to solve it? Hire hundreds of $2\hour foreign workers to verify outputs.
And then they just slap small disclaimer on bottom of the page "Ai may make mistakes" and they are safe legally. I hope ~~there will be class action lawsuit on them some day regardless.~~ this shit gets regulated before anyone hurts themselves
It's weird because it's not exactly misinformation... If you're trying to make a pizza commerical and want that ridiculous cheese pull they always show.
