Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

An early AI was once asked, "Bob has a headache. What should Bob do?" And the AI replied, "Bob should cut off his own head."
The point being: AIs will give you logical solutions to your problems but they won't always give you practical ones.
That's a misconception how LLMs work. It is how SF-authors imagined AI would work.
LLMs won't give you logical solutions to your problems — they'll give you the essence of the data they were fed with that are statistically likely to be associated with the words you used to prompt them. And since they are usually trained on the enshittified internet, well, you get what you paid for.
except they won't always give you logical answers.
