I can't tell you how many times the AI summary on google is just a cut and past of one of the top responses which is also often Wikipedia.

[–] trashcroissant@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 22 hours ago

And half the time it's taken out of context so it's not even the correct answer.

Citing the “start” of Wall•E is so specific, and it’s wrong. These characters are kinda infamously only in the second half.

[–] PolarKraken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The deliberate correct hyphenation character there, that's how you know this one's knowledge is not to be tested lol

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 3 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

In this context Wall—E might be more appropriate.

ChatGPT, is this true? /s

He might have meant the start of this segment, compared to the end where the society has grown and they walk again.

Plus, those people do exist before we see them. We just don't learn about them until part way into the film.

Shuts down wikipedia

Where else will it steal its knowledge from? Won't you think of the questionably scrapped training data!

From itself and other AIs. What could possibly go wrong?

Thanks, just reminded me to go donate to Wikipedia

[–] Railing5132@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Set up a recurring monthly donation. It doesn't have to be huge, I do like 5 or 10 bucks a month (I forget, because it's automatically withdrawn).

I've been thinking about those guys a lot lately. Especially when the articles about AI making us dumber started coming out.

It was actually a very insightful depiction of future humans

Are these like the people in Idiocracy?

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

They're the next stage after Idiocracy. If I remember correctly they don't walk or talk at all, just watch tv and eat.

[–] Salvo@aussie.zone 7 points 23 hours ago

I’m sure that adambarta probably doesn’t see that as a problem.

Maybe he needs to have someone explain the insult to him.

I've got worse news for those who think we are these people. We're not. We are the population that is eliminated once they perfect their automations.

[–] SGforce@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

Right? Those people are all of Musk's clones

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 9 points 1 day ago

"Start" isn't it like the fourth act?

I think you fell off your hover chair, spilled your milkshake and had a brief moment of clarity .... don't worry the robot assistants will help you back up and put you back in your chair
