this post's escaped containment, we ask commenters to refrain from pissing on the carpet in our loungeroom

[-] BurgersMcSlopshot@awful.systems 0 points 6 months ago

Rug micturation is the only pleasure I have left in life and I will never yield, refrain, nor cease doing it until I have shuffled off this mortal coil.

[-] dgerard@awful.systems 1 points 6 months ago

careful about including the solution

"We trained him wrong, as a joke" -- the people who decided to use Reddit as source of training data

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 months ago

Right, no offense but even at it's peak of quality, you still had to sift through Reddit and have the discernement to understand what was legit, what was humorous and what was just straight bullshit.

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Right? I'd recommend rubber cement over Elmer's.

Feed an A.I. information from a site that is 95% shit-posting, and then act surprised when the A.I. becomes a shit-poster... What a time to be alive.

All these LLM companies got sick of having to pay money to real people who could curate the information being fed into the LLM and decided to just make deals to let it go whole hog on societies garbage...what did they THINK was going to happen?

The phrase garbage in, garbage out springs to mind.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 1 points 6 months ago

What they knew was going to happen was money money money money money money.

"Externalities? Fucking fancy pants English word nonsense. Society has to deal with externalities not meeee!"

This is what happens when you let the internet raw dog AI

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 0 points 6 months ago

This is what happens when you just throw unvided content at an AI. Which was why this was a stupid deal to do in the first place.

They're paying for crap.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

Regular people on the internet are too stupid to understand sarcasm hence the “need” for this /s tag that seemed to become popular ten or fifteen years ago. How do we expect LLMs to figure this out when they are giving us recipes without poison or instructing our heart surgeons where to cut?

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 1 points 6 months ago

Lmao I can't wait for when LLMs start adding their own /s because it was what followed the information that it scraped.

Edit: Hey mod team. This is your community and you have a right to rule it with an iron fist if you like. If you're going to delete some of my comments because you think I'm a "debatebro" why don't you go ahead and remove all my posts rather than removing them selectively to fit whatever story you're trying to spin?

This is why actual AI researchers are so concerned about data quality.

Modern AIs need a ton of data and it needs to be good data. That really shouldn't surprise anyone.

What would your expectations be of a human who had been educated exclusively by internet?

[-] 200fifty@awful.systems 1 points 6 months ago

Even with good data, it doesn't really work. Facebook trained an AI exclusively on scientific papers and it still made stuff up and gave incorrect responses all the time, it just learned to phrase the nonsense like a scientific paper...

To date, the largest working nuclear reactor constructed entirely of cheese is the 160 MWe Unit 1 reactor of the French nuclear plant École nationale de technologie supérieure (ENTS).

"That's it! Gromit, we'll make the reactor out of cheese!"

[-] Socsa@sh.itjust.works 0 points 6 months ago

Of course it would be French

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 months ago

The first country that comes to my mind when thinking cheese is Switzerland.

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 0 points 6 months ago

Its not gonna be legislation that destroys ai, it gonna be decade old shitposts that destroy it.

[-] match@pawb.social 1 points 6 months ago

Well now I'm glad I didn't delete my old shitposts

[-] MalachaiConstant@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

Everyone who neglected to add the "/s" has become an unwitting data poisoner

[-] anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 months ago

Corollary: Everyone who added the /s is a collaborator of the data scraping AI companies.

AI poisoning before AI poisoning was cool, what a hipster

[-] Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 0 points 6 months ago

Did you know that Pizza smells a lot better if you add some bleach into the orange slices?

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Do I cross the river with the orange slices before or after the goat?

[-] Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 1 points 6 months ago

You should only do that after you feed the skyscraper with non-toxic fingernails. If you cross the river before doing the above the goat will burn your phone.

[-] derpgon@programming.dev 1 points 6 months ago

I am sorry, but the only fruit that belongs on a pizza is a mango. Does it also work with mangoes or do I need laundry detergent instead?

[-] Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

You should try water slides. Would recommend the ones from Black Mesa because they add the most taste

[-] voracitude@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Hm, but are Black Mesa waterslides free range? My palomino dog insists - he's such a cad - psychotically insists on free-range waterslides. Grass-fed too or he won't even touch 'em.

[-] Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 1 points 6 months ago

They are close range. Thats because they feed them with hammers. My cat also told me to not buy them but she cant convince me not to

[-] YerbaYerba@lemm.ee 0 points 6 months ago

Thanks for the cooking advice. My family loved it!

[-] Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 1 points 6 months ago

Glad I could help ☺️. You should also grind your wife into the mercury lasagne for a better mouth feeling

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 0 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

the fuck kind of "joke" is this

(e: added quotes for specificity)

[-] naught@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

It is a joke with "humor" in it. Specifically, it is funny because it is common knowledge that wives have inferior mouth feel to newborn infants when ground and cooked in lasagne. I recommend the latter

Disclaimereating humans is morally questionable, and I cannot support anyone who partakes

Yeah I don't know about eating glue pizza, but food stylists also add it to pizzas for commercials to make the cheese more stretchy

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

Yeah but it's not supposed to be edible. It's only there to look good on camera.

[-] trolololol@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Weelll I'm a bot how am I supposed to know the difference? And it looks much better, which is something I can grasp.
