Unfortunately for all of us, all you have to do is look at history and you’ll see that a lot of people do want to – especially without consent

I didn’t mean that they never called it a “chatbot”, but that they treat it like a regular meatbag source, more or less.

But yeah, maybe take a break, you’ve clearly decided to be ANGY about this for some reason.

That’s… reassuring.

This reminds me of that scene from Fight Club:

“Which bank do you work for?”

“A major one”

Right, which just calls into question how “anti-woke” it is. Does that count as a critical approach to LLM outputs to you?

I’m not saying this just based on the headline: it’s not like the article itself displays anything that I’d consider a critical approach to LLMs. Just because I don’t agree with your interpretation of the article doesn’t mean I didn’t even read it.

Weighing the real estate magnate’s dealings with both pre- and post-Soviet officials, the KGB, and the Russian mobs, Grok said that although there is no “smoking gun [that] proves direct control,” there’s a good chance that Trump is a “useful idiot” for Putin — especially given that “Trump’s ego and debts make him unwittingly pliable.”

“Adjusting for uncertainty and alternative explanations (e.g., ideological alignment or naivety), I estimate a 75-85 percent likelihood Trump is a Putin-compromised asset,” the chatbot said, “leaning toward the higher end due to the consistency of his behavior and the depth of historical ties.”

This just reads like Grok is any other source and not an LLM.

They should, but they’re human, and this is just such a quintessentially human thing – mindless hate and brutal torture are features, not bugs.

This is just pandering to right wing extremists (ie mainstream conservatism).

It’s like if, say, Unilever bought out a company and then released a statement saying “Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs will stay free of woke mRNA vaccine”

Well, headlining the article as “Elon’s Grok Chatbot Calculates Probability That Trump Is a Russian Asset” definitely makes it sound like it’s supposed to be a calculation of a probability and not just funny as hell.

Oh suddenly we think "AI"s are trustworthy?

I mean Trump definitely is a Russian asset, but what Grok says is neither here nor there

*crickets*

Just your run of the mill neo-Nazi look, like RIchard Spencer:

Wonder how long it’ll take the “masses” to realise that this situation can’t be solved peacefully anymore

Conservatives certainly didn’t. They’re stupid enough to think that what Musk and Trump are doing is Freedom™

You should try to be a functional adult

They did mean what they wrote, but what they wrote didn’t mean what you and the people who decided to get Big Mad about this thought it meant.

“Your parents are going to die one day, kids, and so are you! Now who wants cake?!”

Yyyyeeaaah me neither

I bet that the particular universe where Phil dies just collapses on itself, killing everyone in the process. Thankfully so far there’s always been at least one universe with a Phil that doexn’t die

Can I book you for parties? You’d be a great hit

*badum* *tsss*
