Since when has feeding us misinformation been a problem for capitalist parasites like Pichai?
Misinformation is literally the first line of defense for them.
AI isn't giving the right misinformation
Well, we can't have that, can we?
"put glue in your tomato sauce."
"Omg you ate a capitalist parasite spreading misinformation intentionally!"
When the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Doesn't sound all that different from the stuff emanating from the right's Great Orange Hope a while back that worked pretty well to keep his base appropriately frothing at the mouth - you are free to write it off as pure coincidence... but I won't just yet.
Can you come up with any rational explanation as to why they would do that?
Which part?
The part where it's not "pure coincidence" but instead a deliberate part of some conspiracy.
You mean... apart from the bog-standard propaganda regime the capitalist class has been enforcing on us long before either of us were born?
Yes, besides that. Specifically why this. Thanks.
I'd say it's a continuation of the exact same thing - they just don't know how to properly use their latest toy yet.
At this point, considering your vague non-answers, my only choice is to interpret your answer to my question as "no, I can't."
Take care.
Absolutely no "vague non-answers" on my part. If you don't understand how propaganda works, it's on you to say so - not me.
LLMs trained on shitposting are too obvious for it to be quality misinformation.
For quality disinformation they should train them solely on MBA course-work and documents produced by people with MBAs.
Sure, the rate of false information would be even worse, but it would be formatted in slick ways meant to obfuscate meaning, which would avoid the kind of hilarity that has ensued when Google deployed an LLM trained on Reddit data and thus be much better for Google's stock price.
