This was sheer genius. Bernie got the chatbot to *completely throw these companies under the bus.* 😂

Now they're in a bind. Either they *agree* with the magical talking robot app, in which case they're politically screwed, OR they say the bot was hallucinating and providing false information & poor analysis, in which case they're undemining their wizardly thesis entirely along with their quest to usher in the age of AGI.

Bernie just completely pwned the tech bros!

@jaredwhite Sadly, tech bros will just shrug or say "lalalala, I can't hear."
@jaredwhite this is what would happen in a rational world. But this here is the lol nothing matters world, I'm afraid.
@hllizi @jaredwhite yeah, tech bros can just repeat phrases like "transform our lives" and "disrupt the world" and "shareholder value" a couple times, and everyone will forget what happened 5 minutes ago...
@jaredwhite as the other commenters - I fear for all the cleverness, people in general just won't care (or won't have enough time/energy to care), we're all kept so stressed and worried about so many things I just thinks human attention is spread too thin - and that is what all the bad actors are hoping for. There are too many fights to fight and everyone is too tired and too busy - the overwhelm is vast.
@jaredwhite this actually shows one of the other problems with AI, it's "yes and"-ing him, because that's what they do, adjust who they talk to and don't contradict unless prompted or fine tuned for it, you can get it to say almost anyhing that's not too outrageous this way (and just need some extra effort to get truly unhinged responses), so all this is only as meaningful as the person listening allows it to.
