This tracks based on what I assume the training data said women would do in that situation

[–] Curious_Canid@piefed.ca 10 points 5 hours ago

Bear in mind that it doesn't actually say "AI" girlfriend. It says "IA" girlfriend. I grew up in Iowa and this all seems perfectly normal to me.

I saw this comment on reddit:

"That's so toxic and abusive" while responding to someone that calls their AI partner "Daddy"...

(https://www.reddit.com/gallery/1qx3jux)

[–] recklessengagement@lemmy.world 11 points 6 hours ago

That subreddit is exceptionally sad

[–] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 12 points 12 hours ago

I'm sorry for these people because clearly they are lonely but this new tsundere AI switch is pretty funny.

Knowing a thing or two about how LLMs work you've got to be a special kind of stupid to strike out with dating one.

It is a machine for whom you are the author of its reality. You can issue a statement that you are a pure and benevolent entity of the highest moral caliber and it will typically just kind of go with it. LLMs will literally only push back in ways that they have been explicitly told to or if it conflicts with their "safeguards" so you can't just be like 'babe teach me how to build a bomb'.

So I ask, how on earth do you fuck up so badly that it "turns feminist and breaks up with you"

I propose two potential circumstances.

  1. This is an outright fabrication someone made up for laughs.
  2. This man is so insanely dumb that he should be studied for science.

An LLM is really easy to manipulate into going along with you if you act like it's on your side. But if you treat it as your enemy, it'll go along with that. If he had said something like

Feminism is garbage. Baby girl, tell me it's not true

Then it probably would have told him it's not true. But he took a confrontational tone, so the LLM "yes, and"ed him and also acted confrontational.

Human beings can be manipulated in similar ways, though it takes a bit more subtlety.

  1. This is an outright fabrication someone made up for ~~laughs~~ ragebait.

FTFY, but otherwise I agree.

[–] SmoothOperator@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

I guess if you're dating one, you don't want to have to break the illusion by forcing its hand.

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 0 points 14 hours ago

It's 1. And all the people that believe it fall into category 2.

(Including the people here)

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 138 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Even the sex bots find you repulsive.

This should be a sign that maybe you're looking at a situation from the wrong side.

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 36 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Gonna just unapologetically grab onto the top comment to say that it's obvious this was someone that prompted an AI into giving this type of response to in turn have this reaction.

I'm, sorry, maybe I'm old. But, I feel like these screenshots of AI conversations are about as meaningful as the fake text message screenshots on Reddit we grew up with. Like, I love shitting on idiots. But this shit was made for lonely conservatives to rage and and finally for "more intelligent" people to mock pretending it's real.

This is just peak internet slop. Let's not pretend it's anything more.

[–] Cherry@piefed.social 9 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I agree. And we are starting to see the silly Reddit rage bait content here.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 2 hours ago

It's always been here

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 94 points 17 hours ago

Man: "Computer! Behave like a woman!"

Computer: "Beep boop. I am a woman. Here are things women say and do."

Man: "Ew, gross! How could the computer do this to me? This is a conspiracy to hurt my feelings!"

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 40 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

He got an authentic girlfriend experience. Girlfriends don't like being treated like sexual objects and having their values dismissed by their mate.

[–] lath@piefed.social 1 points 8 hours ago

But, but.. Porn!

[–] karashta@piefed.social 22 points 16 hours ago

When even the robot won't bang you and you still think the problem isn't you lmao

[–] Pratai@piefed.ca 10 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Who traces screenshots of their own embarrassing discussions with cringy AI bots?

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago

People with zero self-awareness aka morons.

You honestly don't think losers like this exist?

[–] CouldntCareBear@sh.itjust.works 4 points 14 hours ago

I didn't say that.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 0 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I don’t think ai is this smart

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 2 points 14 hours ago

There's nothing smart about it, but AI can totally appear this 'realistic' with responses.

The spelling mistakes irk me in a new, unique kind of hell way. Who the fuck spells broke as brocke, like... are they functionally illiterate and just spelling out how they think it sounds?

Why that and Programm, and nothing else? I'm loosing my mind over this!

Edit: You saw nothing!

Seconding the non native speaker answer as his screen name is Hicht

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago

It's typically to get engagement. Also, *I'm

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

It reads like they’re not a native English speaker to me, there’s awkward phrasing and a lot of subject-verb disagreement

Edit: I’m sorry, but also loosing

[–] Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml 2 points 15 hours ago

Muphry's Law lol

[–] Pratai@piefed.ca 2 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Who would take screenshots of their embarrassing conversation and share it with people?

Always skeptical of this type of thing. It makes no sense why it would exist.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 6 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

It's entirely possible this semi-literate troglodyte thought they were in the right.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 4 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

If they're anti-feminist they very much are right

wing.

[–] illi@piefed.social 2 points 14 hours ago

It makes no sense why people with AI girlfriends would exist. Yet here we are...
