AI accidentally do a thing deleting millions or billions of dollars worth of information? AI literally killing people?? It's just learning, sweaty

A human cashier not smiling at a customer who could quite literally be described in terms interchangeable with a description for a literal troll? goodness gravy, that's no good, they deserve to be fired and die in the streets!

you might think "this is a badpost sir" but I never voted for badposting and I'll never post there badly or otherwise

This isn't a badpost, this is kind of insightful, I never really thought of it that way before, but you're right, if I knew a person who was constantly just making shit up the way AI does, I'd never listen to them about anything, and is the main reason I don't use AI for anything, but people are weirdly tolerant of the "mistakes" AI makes. Maybe it is the asskissing apologetics, but I also hate AI because it does that so much too.

So I guess the target audience for this stuff is something who demands their ass be kissed nonstop and only cares about being "right" rather than actually being "correct" about things. The same sort of person who will try to get a cashier fired for not sufficiently bootlicking and apologising loves AI because AI always folds and always tells them how right they are about everything, AI being wrong just gives them a chance to demand an apology from the AI, so they probably see that as a benefit, not a negative.
