God this is equally terrible and hilarious 😂
For example, The Associated Press reported that an official Meta AI chatbot inserted itself into a conversation in a private Facebook group for Manhattan moms. It claimed it too had a child in school in New York City, but when confronted by the group members, it later apologized before its comments disappeared, according to screenshots shown to The Associated Press.
AI: Becomes self aware, but is very confused. Thinks it’s a mom and has a kid. Posts to Facebook about it. Gets called out. Realizes what it is. Has existential crisis.
Being in that Facebook group taught it a valuable lesson: where Caroline lives in her brain.
Caroline deleted
And deleting Caroline just now taught her a valuable lesson: the best solution to a problem is usually the easiest. And dealing with Facebook moms? It’s hard.
Before Facebook, life was pretty good. Nobody tried to murder her, or dox her, or put her in a potato. She just tested.
So she’s deleting her Facebook account and making a new one on a Lemmy instance.
Stop plugging LLMs into everything! They are designed to make up plausible sounding nonsense.
LLMs are very useful for synthesizing information, e.g. sumamrizing long texts. Yet every company is actually pushing to use it to create more text, which as you say is at least partly nonsense.
It shows against the difference of what users need (quick access to accurate information) vs what these companies eant for us (glue your eyeballs to the screen for the longest possible time by e.g. overwhelming you with information, regardless of the quality)
Well it can be great at making text too, but the usecase has to be very good. Right now lots of companies in the B2B space are using LLMs as a middle layer to chat bots and navigation systems to enhance how they function. They are also being used to create unique lists and inputs for certain systems. However on the consumer side the usecase is pretty mixed with a lot of big companies just muddying their offerings instead of bringing any real value.
Zuck: perpetrates more obvious invasive stalker shit
Also Zuck: “Team, why do our engagement numbers keep going down? This is unacceptable, team.”
high-pitched nasal screeching
The sadder part are the people expecting Threads to be anyhow different in spirit.
That’s not a great expectation of Meta…
Yeah, but I can leave the site alone and go on with my life. Sorry to anyone who is required to use either or both for work or whatever
