AI can replace CEOs and politicians!

You give it too much credit. In order to be able to lie it would first need do be actually capable of understanding what it writes. LLMs are text prediction algorithms. They cannot think.

You would think politicians would start fearing losing their jobs.

The amount of times I've gone to look up a topic that I know something about and see something wrong in the AI summary that I didn't ask for...

[-] QualifiedKitten@discuss.online 3 points 3 days ago

I've turned off the AI summaries, but occasionally ask one of DDG's AIs a question, and it almost always has blatant errors in the responses. Yesterday, I did a manual search first, then asked 2 of the AI models if Arm & Hammer currently sells any non-clumping clay litters. It gave me a couple products that it claimed were non-clumping, but when I pulled up product listings to buy them, they were all very clearly labeled as clumping.

Makes it really hard to trust AI for things I don't know when they're so often so obviously wrong about things I do know and can easily verify.

Just the action of writing non-clumping to the LLM will trigger it to focus on clumping most of the times and will give you that type of results

It is not intelligent at all lol

It also uses Reddit as a reference A lot

[-] madeindex@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

yeah I also read that they heavily train it on Reddit, used to be more last year though.

So if people ask it a question, it just tells them their account has been suspended?
