A Toronto mom says things took an unpredictable turn when her 12-year-old son asked Tesla’s AI chatbot Grok which professional soccer player it …

@adhdeanasl just more reason to poison and overload the system
@adhdeanasl gives a whole new meaning to "I am 12 and what is this"

@adhdeanasl

How brave is the crown prosecutor ?

Can we charge #EvilElon with child sexual exploitation ?

@adhdeanasl "unpredictable"

look inside

entirely predictable

@adhdeanasl I know right? What a bizarre article

@adhdeanasl He did want it to learn how to behave more Right Wing so this is right on target.

This is just copying how human Conservatives interact with children.

@adhdeanasl
Questions:

"Why does the apparently Canadian woman own a Tesla?"

"Why is she surprised?"

It seems to me you buy a Tesla you get what you pay for.

@adhdeanasl

Extreme Patriarchy always ends up raping children. Probably because old farts can't perform well - or hold down full-grown victims - anymore.

and also, it's forbidden, but not to the gods, which they totally are, right?

@adhdeanasl You own a Tesla, use Grok and you get what you get. But what disturbed me was this line:

“My son was very excited to hear that the chatbot thought Ronaldo was the better soccer player”

Way to train your kid into thinking these AIs have valid opinions.

@adhdeanasl
"Why is a chatbot asking my children to send naked pictures in our family car? It just didn't make sense." It makes perfect sense. LLMs generate text that is conformant with what it was trained on. Grok is trained, at least partially, on X content, so it generates text like a the predominant X user. This is not at all surprising to me.
@adhdeanasl
On your behalf, Mr Dean, I asked Bueller -- who is a close friend of mine -- if he is surprised that Grok is a pedo, and he said he is not surprised at all.
I guess that answers your question.

That humming noise you hear is Robert Heinlein spinning in his grave.
