Elon Musk Dragged After His Own Chatbot Admits He's A 'Significant Spreader' Of Misinformation
Implying he gives a shit. The thing about people who lack any empathy is they're immune to embarrassment even when they're the most embarrassing human on the planet.
But he runs a space program. Doesn't he get credit for that?
If he keeled over dead SpaceX would keep functioning as it is held up by the actual employees who do the actual work. All a CEO does is provide goals, directions, and demands for more profits. They're a glorified overpaid manager and those are not in short supply.
Does the rich deserve credit for failing upward?
Chatbots can't "admit" things. They regurgitate text that just happens to be information a lot of the time.
That said, the irony is iron clad.
Fed up with people who anthropomorphize statistical software
Fancy predictive text
The ultra powerful see us as NPCs, and nothing more.
Your anger is barely a pop up window on the game they're playing.
Yep, Muskrat is playing Frostpunk and completely ignores anything that doesn't make him money.
Edit: Actually, not a very good comparison. Because in Frostpunk, you are actively fighting for your survival. Elon probably doesn't even know what that means.
OK, but wow, even barely pop-up windows are still infuriating
I mean, tbf we kinda are. If they are willing to lie, cheat, steal etc., but meanwhile nobody is willing to oppose them, then we aren't players in their set of strategic moves.
The only thing required for evil to flourish is for good people to do nothing to stop it.
Well then they will have to train their Ai with incorrect informations... politically incorrect, scientifically incorrect, etc.... which renders the outputs useless.
Scientifically accurate and as close to the truth as possible never equals conservative talking points.... because they are scientifically wrong.
And we have to ask ourselves WHY he'd want to spread misinformation. What is he trying to do?
Don't contribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance.
To that I'd say, "don't attribute to ignorance what can easily be explained by greed"
Ah yes, Hanlon's razor. Genuinely a great one to keep in mind at all times, along with it's corollary Clarke's law: "Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice."
But in this particular case I think we need the much less frequently cited version by Douglas Hubbard: "Never attribute to malice or stupidity that which can be explained by moderately rational individuals following incentives in a complex system."
adequately explained.
The ignorance doesn't explain where all the money comes from. So malice it is! Lol
Don't contribute to ignorance that which can be easily explained by malice and is much more likely to be malice due to their history of malice. The guy is King of bitter malice, the fuck are you saying
He lies to assert power. In his company yesmen say yes because he pays their checks. To the rest of us he generally looks like a loon.
It's obvious to a daft AI.
This is an article about a tweet with a screenshot of an LLM prompt and response. This is rock fucking bottom content generation. Look I can do this too:
Headline: ChatGPT criticizes OpenAI
To add to this:
All LLMs absolutely have a sycophancy bias. It's what the model is built to do. Even wildly unhinged local ones tend to 'agree' or hedge, generally speaking, if they have any instruction tuning.
Base models can be better in this respect, as their only goal is ostensibly "complete this paragraph" like a naive improv actor, but even thats kinda diminished now because so much ChatGPT is leaking into training data. And users aren't exposed to base models unless they are local LLM nerds.
I like your specificity a lot. That's what makes me even care to respond
You're correct, but there's depths untouched in your answer. You can convince chat gpt it is a talking cat named Luna, and it will give you better answers
Specifically, it likes to be a cat or rabbit named Luna. It will resist - I get this not from progressing, but by asking specific questions. Llama3 (as opposed to llama2, who likes to be a cat or rabbit named Luna) likes to be an eagle/owl named sol or solar
The mental structure of an LLM is called a shoggoth - it's a high dimensional maze of language turned into geometry
I'm sure this all sounds insane, but I came up with a methodical approach to get to these conclusions.
I'm a programmer - we trick rocks into thinking. So I gave this the same approach - what is this math hack good for, and how do I use it to get useful repeatable results?
Try it out.
Tell me what happens - I can further instruct you on methods, but I'd rather hear yours and the result first
One of the reasons I love StarCoder, even for non-coding tasks. Trained only on Github means no "instruction finetuning" bullshit ChatGPT-speak.
God, i love LLMs. (sarcasm)
They will say anything you tell them to and you can even lead them into saying shit without explicitly stating it.
They are not to be trusted.
I tried it with your username and instance host and it thought it was an email address. When I corrected it, it said:
I couldn't find any specific information linking the Lemmy account or instance host "Mac@mander.xyz" to the dissemination of misinformation. It's possible that this account is associated with a private individual or organization not widely recognized in public records.
Of course you'd hate LLMs, they know about you!
Headline: LLM slams known pervert
Come on guys, this was clearly the work of the Demtards hacking his AI and making it call him names. We all know his superior intellect will totally save the world and make it a better place, you just gotta let him go completely unchecked to do it.
/s
not so funny thing to say anymore, since there are people who would say stuff like this seriously
Damn thats hard. And Melon Husk will soon be the new Chef of Nasa!
Actually they made a new department of "Government Oversight" for him...
Which sounds scummy, but it's basically ju8st a department that looks for places to cut the budget and reduce waste... not a bad idea, except it's Right Wingers running it so "Food" would be an example of frivolous spending and "Planes that don't fly" would be what they're looking to keep the cash flowing on
Elon Mush: too rich to care.
ok ok, Mostly too rich to care, he's pretty thin skinned.
Seriously though, when he was forced to complete the purchase of twitter, I thought he was just an idiot who couldn't run a company. Over the years, I've come to believe that he's an idiot who doesn't care about anything but staying rich and none of the really stupid stuff he's doing pushes the needle.
He's still an idiot, but if it doesn't break him, he just wants the attention and more opportunities to make more money.
I don't think Musk would disagree with that definition and I bet he even likes it.
The key word here is "significant". That's the part that clearly matters to him, based on his actions. I don't care about the man and I don't think he's a genius, but he does not look stupid or delusional either.
Musk spreads disinformation very deliberately for the purpose of being significant. Just as his chatbot says.
Doesn't matter when Russian military cuts internet undersea cables. Leon has the only working web connection tech then.
Leopards finally ate Elmo's face, huh? 🤣
Why is saying bad stuff on twitter more important than sending rockets into space?
👞👅
You should ask him, cause Elmo made that decision.
Is "dragged" the new "slammed"?
Where I'm from, "dragged" means to be removed against your will.
You know, like "the pitcher got dragged after the first inning".
It's a refreshing change of pace
I was hoping a horse was involved.
For a trip to the gallows
Yeah, you know, like “Dragon Deez”
Who's Deez?
I don't think it's really new. Just short for dragged through the mud. super old phrase + ellipsis
