That's actually super neat. They really buried the lead with that article headline.

No he didn't shut the fuck up

This motherfucker probably hasn't ever even seen a dog.

Sure, and I caused world peace when I clapped my cheeks and twirled in front of the mirror three times while chanting the alphabet backwards. Weird how no one thought to do that before.

Slopticles like these are so fucking dangerous because it gives credence to GPT as some kind of medical oracle when it isn’t. People already get hurt from it, we don’t need more.

Edit: hit → hurt checks → cheeks

Did ChatGPT mention that a vaccine won't work if the dog already has cancer?

Read the article. You might learn something.

From someone who asked ChatGPT? Unlikely.

AI AND ChatGPT! What a mix!

And used by a CEO, who we all know are the pinnacle of human evolution

This is actually one of the few applications for which these tools make sense. LLMs can be useful for brainstorming and planning (which seems to be what he used ChatGPT for - he developed the plan and then went to the relevant experts) and other machine-learning tools are good at identifying patterns. He still had to put in a lot of work and had the advantage of being a data analyst with experts in the relevant fields to lean on, so this is not just a random person using "AI" to solve a problem.

Thanks, OP, interesting read. Please don’t let the luddites get you down.

I don't get this.

Someone posts an article, someone else enjoys it and tells them not to get discouraged by the crowd that doesn't like the content and gets downvoted?

Afaik luddite is not an insult but maybe I'm wrong. Anyhow I feel a vocal section of the anti llm crew are just looking to discourage anyone who's not aligning 100% with their battle.
