We shall talk about “artificial stupidity / insanity“ consistently from now on, refusing the implied sales pitch altogether.

Maybe using the correct attribution will fix it? 💡 😇

#AIslop -> #ArtificialStupidity / ArtificialInsanity / LazyLyingMachines

I don't know which single article you saw @mherbert, but I try to tailor my response to where the individual person is.

People have widely divergent knowledge about #GenAI and #ArtificialStupidity, because there's a *deluge* of deliberately false framing and speculation out there. Need to know what lies or hype the person has been subject to, and address those. (Attempting to head off *all* the misinformation is sure to just overwhelm the person.)

You might like this clearing house, with links targeting specific issues: https://justsayno.ai/

but I'd not send them *to* that site; instead, gently find out what they don't know.

Washington state hotline callers hear AI voice with Spanish accent

Callers to Washington state’s driver’s license agency who select automated service in Spanish have instead been hearing an AI voice speaking English with a strong Spanish accent. The voice slipped Spanish numbers into key phrases. A recording of the odd-sounding accent drew attention on social media. And one person described the experience as “hilarious,” “absurd” and like a scene out of “Parks and Recreation.” The Department of Licensing has apologized and says it fixed the problem.

Clawdbot: " it can reply to emails, check things, and create reports for you all during the night."

Not only "hell no", but "where do you get off thinking I would trust any human let alone an "artificially stupid, hallucinating LLM" to reply to an email".

In fact you didn't ask for my permission to read my emails, and I would not have given it if you had.
