Let's ask the Negative Nine Ball, a toy for our time!

The Grey Lady has become the gas station sushi of #media. PUT IT DOWN. You know it's going to make you sick.
@MaryAustinBooks The headline was probably written by AI. Now if the reporter goes back into that chat and says, 'That’s not what NATO means!' the bot will say, 'You are absolutely right. I aimed for a catchy, provocative headline. Would you like me to re-write it?'
@mattijamsa BWAHAHAHA! I bet that's true, and I hope all their AI use bites them in the ass like that.

A LLM (pronounced lollum) trained on bad data will yield bad results. How is it to know it's North Atlantic if the word North is usually followed by American?

@MaryAustinBooks sheesh. How embarrassing for them.
@caffeinatedgeek
Right? Imagine what grade a high school kid would get on a paper for that.
@MaryAustinBooks They outdo themselves every day. There appears to be no bottom. Among many other things they should be, they should be just mortified with embarrassment at this one.
@MaryAustinBooks
Journalists, schmernalists - who needs ‘em?
We’ll just use unpaid interns and AI.
@MaryAustinBooks when you let rich idiots own media it’s guaranteed that liberty and freedom are threatened.

@MaryAustinBooks

Even so, last time I looked, Canada is geographically part of North America, so this is doubly stupid!

@iaruffell

Isn't Mexico also geographically part of North America?

@MaryAustinBooks

@MaryAustinBooks is there anybody who still read news from paper?
@MaryAustinBooks Atlantis is nowhere to be found.

@MaryAustinBooks

How does something THAT stupid get by a dozen checkers, a half dozen editors, layout artists. OMG thats pretty stupid.

You dont need the former #NYTimes anymore, its gone.

@MaryAustinBooks looking forward to see that headline trained into LLMs
@MaryAustinBooks they are the type to thing "Atlantic" means just america
@MaryAustinBooks For (US-)Americans everything is about (US-)America. 🤷
