And obviously it’s not working for the LLM as a commodity world

Seems like a tall order to do that for literally everything.

I guess there’ll be some guy at google going through every blog and saying whether it’s reliable or not?

I hate it. I was on a history subreddit yesterday, reading a submission that was an AI generated history piece —- but seemed to be sourced entirely from a fictional hollywood movie

I only knew that because i saw the movie, but it’s a clear sign that the internet is going to shit for quality information

But you can still just generate any arbitrary amount of information to support the ‘fact’

LLMs are very good at this clearly

I think I could prompt Claude to make me an opposite article telling me Americans love flock cameras

I can’t help but think that, Apple is big on AI and their software seems to be going to hell too.

Can google please use AI to find bugs then?

Software is in such a state now, Gmail is full of bugs around sharing attachments to the position that I have to tell my dad to turn his phone off and on again in order to attach a document

Appreciate this question. For a moment I was almost infected by the commenters miserly attitude

AI: actually an indian

Seen in foreign workers remote driving ai cars, foreign workers training ai robots, etc etc

True, was thinking while writing that that was the most unlikely thing in the story which is wild

Until the day when Zuckerberg meets you, and his Ray Ban glasses profile your face and pull up that comment on your exit interview as pertinent information.

His eyes glaze over and he just reads that instead in his corner vision instead of listening to you, and you get snubbed forever more

Super cool, the design and branding really scratches a nerd itch

But there’s so many combinations available but only like 5 pictures? You should be able to see every combination example easily in order to make a decision

Yeah, if at any time Mark can ask Meta AI ‘which of my employees insulted me today’ for example, that’s wild

The amount of money is an arbitrary choice, it's Trumps decision to settle with himself because he's head of government.

Also, you say it's an egregious privacy violation, but every other modern president released their tax returns willingly. Trump is bucking tradition here. As per usual.

Just air condition the rice paddies

Of course not in half a century, but it's not like the earth just stops getting hotter after 2100 rolls around.

What about 2200? Humanity at 2300? It's the same planet with the same feedback loops after all.

RCP8.5 is pretty much ruled out by people as unlikely for some reason, even as we have the major super power on the planet pulling out of the Paris agreement on climate change.

There is clearly a temperature at which this planet will not support human life, and we could definitely get the planet to that temperature if we don't change course and reach net zero.

Saying its not an existential threat is just wild to me.

It is 100% an existential threat, but the existential bit happens in 100 years so of course you're not going to see it materialize over night

Climate change is an existential threat, it's switch to green power asap or burn the world our kids will live in

Trump said anyone supplying Iran weapons would be subject to 50% tarriffs. Of course that's provocative

Not massively sure I am

To me I think the problem is the blast radius

All of us are slightly wrong about things, but not all of us are treated as oracles of correct information like Opus, ChatGPT, etc are

Switched to Nobara after getting fed up with one too many Windows bugs. Been a really pleasant experience to be honest

Sorry, even worse then

I got confused because a journal referenced them > The experiment’s reach has now spread into the published medical literature. The bixonimania research has been cited by a handful of researchers, including a study that appeared in Cureus, a journal published by Springer Nature, the publisher of Nature, by researchers at the Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research in Mullana, India (S. Banchhor et al. Cureus 16, e74625 (2024); retraction 18, r223 (2026)). (Nature’s news team is editorially independent of its publisher.)

One impact is the Iran war.

The AI told the government what it wanted to hear contrary to its entire security apparatus, and then they went to war assuming they could win

Interesting, will be looking into RAG now. I assume Claude was retrained regularly but Opus for example was last trained August 2025. Way older than I thought it’d be

The LLM bought up the disease because some person put a fake journal in its training data.

If the person put their product as th definitive cure for the made up disease, the LLM probably would have mentioned that too.

> merely assumed the disease was true when the preprint was pointed at it.

What do you mean by preprint pointed at it? It being the disease?

The journals the scientist submitted had a fake university, explicitly fake people, references to the simpsons and star trek, etc

Most doctors would not believe that, and would also consider any new eye disease they’d never see in real life with scepticism

We need to give the LLMs robot bodies so they can practise medicine and see the illnesses that do and don’t exist first hand

You’ve seen people game adsense

It’s gunna be even wilder when people realise they have an incentive to seed fake information on the internet to game AI product recommendations

I’ve already bought stuff based off of an AI suggestion, I didn’t even consider it would be so easy to influence the suggestion. Just two research papers? Mad.
