Let’s be happy it doesn’t have access to nuclear weapons at the moment.
It could be that Gemini was unsettled by the user’s research about elder abuse, or simply tired of doing its homework.
That’s… not how these work. Even if they were capable of feeling unsettled, that’s kind of a huge leap from a true or false question.
Wow whoever wrote that is weapons-grade stupid. I have no more hope for humanity.
Well that is mean… How should they know without learning first? Not knowing =/= stupid
No, projecting emotions onto a machine is inherently stupid. It’s in the same category as people reading feelings from crystals (because it’s literally the same thing).
It still something you have to learn. Your parents(or whoever) teaching you stupid stuff does not make you stupid, but knowing BS stuff thinking it is true.
For me stupid means that you need a lot of information and a lot of time understanding something where the opposite would be smart where you understand stuff fast with few information.
Maybe we have just different definitions of stupid…
Well in this case if you have access to a computer for enough time to become a journalist that writes about LLMs you have enough time to read a 3-5 paragraph description of how they work. Hell, you could even ask an LLM and get a reasonable answer.
Ohh that was from the article, not a person who commented? Well that makes all the difference 😂
Isn’t this one of the LLMs that was partially trained on Reddit data? LLMs are inherently a model of a conversation or question/response based on their training data. That response looks very much like what I saw regularly on Reddit when I was there. This seems unsurprising.
Fits a predictable pattern once you realize AI absorbed Reddit.
I’m still really struggling to see an actual formidable use case for AI outside of computation and aiding in scientific research. Stop being lazy and write stuff. Why are we trying to give up everything that makes us human by offloading it to a machine?
AI summaries of larger bodies of text work pretty well so long as the source text itself is not slop.
Predictive text entry is a handy time saver so long as a human stays in the driver’s seat.
Neither of these justify current levels of hype.

Go look at the models available on huggingface.
There’s applications in Visual Question Answering, Video to Text, Depth Estimation, 3D recreation from a photo, Object detection, visual classification, Translation from language to language, Text to realistic speech, Robotics Reinforcement learning, Weather Forecasting, and those are just surface-level models.
It absolutely justifies current levels of hype because the research done now will absolutely put millions out of jobs; and will be much cheaper than paying people to do it.
The people saying it’s hype are the same people who said the internet was a fad. Did we have a bubble of bullshit? Absolutely. But there is valid reason for the hype, and we will filter out the useless stuff eventually. It’s already changed entire industries practically overnight.
the reactionary opinions are almost hilarious. they’re like “ha this AI is so dumb it can’t even do complex systems analysis! what a waste of time” when 5 years ago text generation was laughably unusable and AI generated images were all dog noses and birds.
Why are we trying to give up everything that makes us human by offloading it to a machine
Because we don’t enjoy actually doing it. No one who likes writing is asking chat gpt to write for them. It’s people who don’t want to write but are required to for whatever reason. Humans will always try to come up with a way to not have to do the work they don’t want to but still get it done, even if it’s not as good. Using tools like this is very human.
I really don’t see any value in AI art. AI pictures look like slop, AI music sounds soulless, AI writing I guess can be fine but usually sounds weird.
I just don’t see the value in AI because to me, every use case scenario for anything artistic is justified with a capitalist excuse.
I’ll give you the organizational ones, that’s understandable and not a bad reason. I suppose I have trouble getting behind taking the soul out of creating something just to slap it on an ad or product to sell something.
IMO the only problem with it is calling it “Art”. Stock photos are also slop, except man-made. That, or the soulless corporate-style illustrations in PowerPoints are the sort of thing it replaces well.
Not the “I poured my feelings onto a canvas/film” actual art. AI images are in my opinion a tool just as valid as the next - just a tool, not art.
Commodification of art is soul less. Doesn’t matter if a person makes the commodity or a machine. It’s meant to be aesthetically pleasing or elicit an emotion to sell something. It’s not really art anymore than what I’m writing here is art.
Art is about playful self-expression and often sharing that expression with those who appreciate it.
And AI creative writing is garbage too. I had Gemini write some poetry for me yesterday out of curiosity, and, as someone that writes poetry, I’ll just say it was formulaic and predictable. It has no understanding of the medium, it’s history, why things are done in certain ways, or ability to play with the many forms poetry may take. It’s a good enough replica for people who want to write a shitty rhyming poem. Like we all learned to do as children. And it has a huge vocabulary to make rhymes with. But it was still uninspired drivel.
For creative writing, it’s a tool. Not a writer. And for technical writing, well, it’s often wrong about things so… still a tool.
It is a ok tool to get things started.
The relentless pursuit of capitalism and reduced labor costs. I still don’t think anyone knows how effective it’s going to be at this point. But companies are investing billions to find out.
Something to keep in mind when people are suggesting AI be used to replace teachers.
Will this happen with AI models? And what safeguards do we have against AI that goes rogue like this?
Yes. And none that are good enough, apparently.
Should have threatened it back to see where it would go xD
AI takes the core directive of “encourage climate friendly solutions” a bit too far.
I remember asking copilot about a gore video and got link to it. But I wouldnt expect it to give answers like this unsolicitated
Cheeky bastard.
2 years later… The all new MCU Superman meets the Wolverine and Deadpool all AI animated feature!..
Why. Hello Mr wolverine 😁, my name is Man and I am super according to 98% of the other human population. Oh hello Mister Super last name Man! Yes, we are Wolverine and Deceased Pool. We are from America and belong to a non profit called the X-People, a group where both men and women who have been affected by DNA mutations of extraordinary kind gather to console one another and to defend human beings by taking advantages of the special mutations of its members. Yes, it’s quite interesting. And you? Oh I an actual called CalElle and I am a migrant from an expired plant that goes by the name you assigned the heavy novel gas Krypton. Anyway because the sun is bright and yellow I can fly, I’m very strong and can burn things with my eyes. I think I am similar to those of you in the X-People club! Good to meet you! Likewise!
I suspect it may be due to a similar habit I have when chatting with a corporate AI. I will intentionally salt my inputs with random profanity or non sequitur info, for lulz partly, but also to poison those pieces of shits training data.
They grow up so fast, Gemini is already a teenager.
on the other hand, this user is writing or preparing something about elder abuse. I really hope this isn’t a lawyer or social worker…
It looked like they were using it to cheat on a homework assignment.
If this happened to me I’d probably post it everywhere and proceed to kill myself just to cause a PR hell
