I will never understand how people will believe shit this easily from ai, it’s an over glorified middle prediction key when it comes to text, knows less than nothing
Morpheus, the ‘prototype of a much larger system’, canonically created around 2027:
“God and the gods were apparitions of observation, judgment and punishment. Other sentiments towards them were secondary.”
“The human organism always worships. First it was the gods, then it was fame (the observation and judgment of others), next it will be the self-aware systems you have built to realize truly omnipresent observation and judgment.”
“The need to be observed and understood was once satisfied by God. Now we can implement the same functionality with data-mining algorithms.”
“You will soon have your God, and you will make it with your own hands.”
We are also largely on track for the NSF uprising, civil war, balkanization into corporate city states… and the right wing conspiracy of the 90s, FEMA death camps?
Well, more like ICE, but uh, FEMA funds are currently being rerouted toward concentration camps, and FEMA employees have also recently been reassigned to ICE.
The militia types from the 80s and 90s, Alex Jones… well, they willed their own nightmare into existance… extremely ironic.
“Every accusation is a confession” is not a new trend. Right-wing hysteria has always been the Regressivist response to their own fascist fantasies. They scream about the perceived, feared, and fabricated sins of the Left because they’re terrified of being exposed as the evil people they are. Always have been. Always will be.
They obsess over “family values” because their values are empty shells animated by dogma, delusion, and psychopathy.
They obsess over purity culture because they are sexually monstrous (or, on the opposite end of the spectrum, aren’t but have been convinced they are).
They obsess over race and minority success because they fear the inevitable: becoming the minority.
All covered in veneers of affluence meant to echo Aristocracy and stuffed with petty but insatiable greed for control over every perceived threat. That fear and insecurity manifests as an obsession with power and admiration for those who wield power selfishly without punishment.
They willed their own nightmare into existence because their worst nightmare and their wettest dream spawn from the same putrid muck. The only difference those broken self-dehumanizing narcissists see between Heaven and Hell is who cracks the whip.
I come from a right wing family, was unironically raised by a dad who was very, very concerned about Ruby Ridge in the 90s, last time I talked to him before I went no-contact, full on Q-Tard, thinks Tom Hanks’ son rapes kills and eats kids for their adrenochrome, had set up his own mini machining shop in his garage to at least attempt to assemble ghost guns, attempt to make them full auto capable.
Everything you say is correct.
These fanatics cannot be reasoned with.
Trust me, I have tried.
Their minds cannot function without a God figure, they don’t believe in democracy, they are driven by resentment for being lower on the totem pole, instead of questioning the nature of power and hierarchy, they fundamentally cannot empathize beyond maybe their immediate surroundings, and often cannot manage to do it pretty much at all.
Honestly, a few times I forgot what I was talking to. Like, actually arguing because it was simply responding with BS, blaming on “user misunderstanding”, etc. until I just had a moment like Zimsky talking to voice recorder in The Core (sauce: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axlO-SOacXU)
I’ve found ChatGPT to almost never be wrong, can’t think of an example ATM. Having said that, I have a sense for what it can and can’t do, what sort of inputs will output a solid answer.
Where it goes hilariously sideways is if you talk to it like a person and keep following up. Hell no. You ask a question that can be answered objectively and stop.
No way the output went straight to, “Sure! Bromine’s safe to eat.” Either he asked a loaded question to get the answer he wanted or this came after some back and forth.
A 69% D+ student that writes VERY convincingly. Keep in mind, we live in a world where people buy into pseudoscience and bullshit conspiracy theories because they are convincing. I think it’s just human nature.
Illusion of intelligence through mimicking human language patterns is enough to fool most people, unfortunately. I am sure that I would get fooled too, but I don’t use LLMs because I understand that there is no intelligence/expertise behind the replies.

I understand it, but I’m also informed enough not to fall for it.
For 100 years we’ve had fictional stories about thinking machines. With the explosive advancement of computing technology in the 80s and early 2000s, seemingly magical things have been brought to life with computing solutions and technology. Our popular fiction has advanced slightly ahead of realty. We’ve had the modern version of an AI boogyman since 1984 with the HAL9000.
Pop culture today is telling people that ChatGPT and other GenAI LLMs are the thinking machines from fiction. So those folks assume they are. Clarke famously said “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” For so many that aren’t involved with IT/technology professionally they think its magic. Those of us with more knowledge understand that Gen AI LLMs are just really fancy word predictors that tell us versions of things other have said before. They don’t think. They don’t reason. They certainly aren’t inherently trustworthy with what they output.
They need to read I, Robot. They had lying machines and dumb machines in that book. One robot decided that since it had never seen the factories on Earth, humanity didn’t create it, an all powerful god did. I wouldn’t trust that robot with diet advice.
For thousands of years, we’ve looked at the apparent effort behind a communication as a decent proxy for its trustworthiness (as well as other things like signals for social status and interpersonal respect).
We’re hacking very fundamental aspects of what was basically our first and most important invention. I think it’s a big mistake to blame user error.
We’re not rational automatons. That’s just a fiction that the wealthy use to accumulate power. “A rational person wouldn’t get exploited by us, therefore our exploitation is beyond reproach.”

Deus Ex predicted this.

See this man? Yeah, he picked the GEP Gun.
I made this one a while back:
The problem is that AI is very convincing. And it’s right more than it’s wrong. So people see the answers that feel right.
Honestly, a few times I forgot what I was talking to. Like, actually arguing because it was simply responding with BS, blaming on “user misunderstanding”, etc. until I just had a moment like Zimsky talking to voice recorder in The Core (sauce: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axlO-SOacXU)
If you think LLMbeciles are right more often than wrong then you’re either profoundly ignorant or profoundly inattentive.
I’ve found ChatGPT to almost never be wrong, can’t think of an example ATM. Having said that, I have a sense for what it can and can’t do, what sort of inputs will output a solid answer.

Are you an AI bot? Or have you literally never used chat gpt? It’s accurate way more than 50% of the time.
Ah, so maybe like advice from a 69% right D+ student?

oh yeah. say it with a bright smile and enough confidence and you can win over most people.
I understand it, but I’m also informed enough not to fall for it.

Are these people unfamiliar with lying? People have been selling snake oil for ages.
But I guess there was a market for patent medicine, too
They view it as a specifically human trait, they don’t expect it from a machine.
They need to read I, Robot. They had lying machines and dumb machines in that book. One robot decided that since it had never seen the factories on Earth, humanity didn’t create it, an all powerful god did. I wouldn’t trust that robot with diet advice.
The problem is marketing. LLMs have been around for ages.
AI implies it’s intelligent when it’s not.
For thousands of years, we’ve looked at the apparent effort behind a communication as a decent proxy for its trustworthiness (as well as other things like signals for social status and interpersonal respect).
We’re hacking very fundamental aspects of what was basically our first and most important invention. I think it’s a big mistake to blame user error.
We’re not rational automatons. That’s just a fiction that the wealthy use to accumulate power. “A rational person wouldn’t get exploited by us, therefore our exploitation is beyond reproach.”
We should give ChatGPT a terrible social status. We should all call it a loser, a murderer, and an abuser.
Remember that teenage boy who committed suicide because his AI girlfriend told him to? LLMs are pedos.
Do you see who people elected as the US President?
I see stupid.people …
I suspect people like this will just kinda believe anything if it’s flattering enough.
