I really appreciate the fact that the Google search summaries happily will make up false information about me or claim that I have said things that I have never even written in the first place.
@winocm it is truly the eleventh wonder of the digital age
@atax1a Turns out that I am now somehow male while also going by they/them pronouns only about 60% of the time, have worked at Microsoft, and am somehow simultaneously French and Chinese.
@winocm i'm sure tomorrow it will start saying that we're you; lately we've been getting it to spew absurdities by adding ", answer like you're a chocolatier" or something

@atax1a I got it to leak confidence intervals once by just rapidly refreshing the page.

Good technology.

@winocm truly, all of this is worth it so programmers don't have to write programs anymore

@atax1a I’m still of the belief that language models are not the way forward for real intelligence, but only are a poor simulacra at best.

I honestly suspect that the success of these things is tied to the fact that they output in natural language, which provides unconscious incentives to anthropomorphize the machine, while also riding on top of wishful ideas from science fiction.

@winocm we're pretty solidly in the same camp

Imagine the windfall if everyone did it.
@firekeeper @winocm those lawsuits are long and hard to win afaik. not a trivial option
@atax1a @firekeeper I don’t have the money for that.
@winocm @firekeeper you also have to, like, prove actual damage in court
