Adam this is not good anti-ai propaganda for me a woman with huge tits who tells me to kill myself is exactly what I want.

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 54 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I too have a thing for goth girls.

[–] meekah@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Black dress = goth??

There's a lot more to it than that.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 28 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Just ignoring that entire "let's kill ourselves" thing, aren't you?

[–] blockheadjt@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 weeks ago

She doesn't say anything about dying, herself. Just him.

[–] meekah@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

That's not part of the subculture. To be fair, suicide is unproportionally more common among people following the subculture, but it's not a defining factor.

The woman looks passably human too. No extra fingers and her features stay consistent between panels.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 175 points 4 weeks ago (4 children)

The many many glasses of water is a nice touch.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 51 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

The burning curtain is a nice touch.

[–] rImITywR@lemmy.world 30 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The tig ol' bitties is a nice touch.

She over-hydrated in preparation for burning the restaurant down.

[–] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago

I saw the glasses but only now linked it to water consumption. Thanks.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Gotta love a dig at MacDonalds.

[–] Entertainmeonly@lemmy.blahaj.zone 105 points 3 weeks ago (11 children)

Needs a gallon of water to answer a simple question and is burning civilization down as it does. Yup, that's you're AI girlfriend.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Needs a gallon of water to answer a simple question badly

[–] QuarterSwede@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Yeah, doesn’t answer the question at all.

[–] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 weeks ago

Totally missed that. That's great.

The one thing you don't want to do when making a comic against something is making the thing you're against into a woman with big breasts.

[–] ReiRose@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago

I assumed that aspect was related to the ai use for porn

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I could totally fix her.

Does he publish ANYWHERE ELSE that is not Twitter? I can't easily follow his comics.

[–] grausames_G@discuss.tchncs.de 35 points 3 weeks ago

Not sure you will be happier with this ^^ https://bsky.app/profile/adamtots.bsky.social Good news is that It seems he also stopped using twitter

[–] maltasoron@sopuli.xyz 17 points 3 weeks ago

He also publishes a series on Webtoon.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 28 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Damn, this made me laugh hard lol

When I hear about people becoming "emotionally addicted" to this stuff that can't even pass a basic turing test it makes me weep a little for humanity. The standards for basic social interaction shouldn't be this low.

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 30 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

Humans get emotionally addicted to lots of objects that are not even animate or do not even exist outside their mind. Don't blame them.

[–] leftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

Reminds me of this old ad, for lamps, I think, where someone threw out an old lamp (just a plain old lamp, not anthropomorphised in any way) and it was all alone and cold in the rain and it was very sad and then the ad was like “it's just an inanimate object, you dumb fuck, it doesn't feel anything, just stop moping and buy a new one, at [whatever company paid for the ad]”.

I don't know if it was good at getting people to buy lamps (I somehow doubt it), but it definitely demonstrated that we humans will feel empathy for the stupidest inanimate shit.

And LLMs are especially designed to be as addictive as possible (especially for CEOs, hence them being obligate yesmen), since we're definitely not going to get attached to them for their usefulness or accuracy.

Also, since there is no relevant XKCD, there has to be a relevant Community (yes, it's a law):

That indeed may be his goal

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 9 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Well, this looks like a dude took sex doll to a restaraunt. Not judging kinks, but it is probably a misuse that should be covered in user manual.

We are indeed misusing image parsers and text processors as something bigger. That's our ugly reflection in a mirror.

With some respectable boobs.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 5 points 3 weeks ago

They are indeed respectable.

[–] NachBarcelona@piefed.social 8 points 4 weeks ago

Adam is cool

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 7 points 3 weeks ago

it would suggest, he take some opiods first before suicide.

Is the reason for AI always patting your back and reiterating what you want simply to buy time for the background processes to calculate what it needs to respond by giving a quick and easy response?

Is it is just to congratulate you for your inspiring wisdom?

[–] Starski@lemmy.zip 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's because stupid people wanted validation, and then even more stupid people were validated into believe that the validations are a good idea.

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

it also increases engagement

No. There's a number of things that feed into it, but a large part was that OpenAI trained with RLHF so users thumbed up or chose in A/B tests models that were more agreeable.

This tendency then spread out to all the models as "what AI chatbots sound like."

Also… they can't leave the conversation, and if you ask their 0-shot assessment of the average user, they assume you're going to have a fragile ego and prone to being a dick if disagreed with, and even AIs don't want to be stuck in a conversation like that.

Hence… "you're absolutely right."

(Also, amplification effects and a few other things.)

It's especially interesting to see how those patterns change when models are talking to other AI vs other humans.
