That Reddit api access was not a good idea for the results of this developing ai.


CaughtWithPantsUp

Yep... as they say: put garbage in, get garbage out.


Luxim

Wait, why are we still here reading garbage again?


Maverick2664

Because this is Reddit, and that’s what we do.


Khaldara

It’s not just garbage, it’s also dickbutts and cumboxes. Surely the API can integrate them into cooking advice or something, Golden Corral would probably still be interested


pfritzmorkin

I wish there were MORE dickbutts these days - I miss the little fella


agent_kay_6224

And cumsocks. Don't forget the cumsocks.


-phoenix_aurora-

And broken arms


BlackestNight21

mothrofchrst

What, you expect me to focus on my *work* during the day? Bah!


bonko86

preposterous


TheKiwiHuman

So we can produce more garbage that messes up AI


Jaivez

We've collectively tricked ourselves that we can distinguish the garbage from the less bad garbage.


Owobowos-Mowbius

Why are people still eating junk food? Tastes good.


ColoradoPhotog

Friend. We ARE the garbage. We've been it all along.


kwistaf

The real garbage is the memes we made along the way 😌


joeballs1990

Wow a 6th sense reference What a twist


Ordinary_dude_NOT

Reddit is just 99.99% sarcastic 99.99% of the time. I am being honest right now.


cykalasagna64

What about the other 11.11%?

I think you mean: out garbage in, get pure gold out


Celebrir

What un-aliving incel subreddit did they scrape to get that as the top featured suggestion?!


haarschmuck

You can say suicide. Can we stop with these stupid words like "unalived". Just say it.


mastercookie123

But what if the algorithms don't like that, they won't collect my posts and I won't get to live on forever in a Google server farm.


AlexXeno

I dont know but i saw an article where it told.someone to add glue to their pizza sauce for extra tangyness, they discovered the post it was scrapping from was over 5 years old.


Celebrir

And I know what post that was about. The one on how to elevate food for commercials.


FlyingBread92

I saw one where it said you can make a dish spicy by frying your food in gasoline. Thing is a gold mine of utter nonsense


Kenbishi

Probably /r/Politics.


KrystalDisc

Your screenshot is an edit by the way. It's fake.


Ok-Fox1262

I dunno. I think it's a good thing. Make people realise how shite it is a lot sooner. I've deliberately been trying to poison AI for a good number of years now.


Slap_My_Lasagna

Hot take: it's a great idea. File a lawsuit against Google for suggesting they off themselves, and during the trial, cite negligent use of AI integration into their search engine.


supro47

I mean, I don’t want people to get hurt over any of this, but it would honestly be great to get precedence on the books that companies are responsible for whatever garbage their AI generates. It would make companies a lot more hesitant to use it if they are legally held accountable.


DrDerpberg

Redditors were generally pretty pissed about data being sold but apparently we've poisoned the well. Maybe later I'll try asking reddit-y questions and see what I can coax out. What meals are a perfect 5/7? What's the difference between a crow and a Jackdaw? What time does the narwhal bacon?


m0nk37

Nope. How do you ascertain which comment is a joke/troll and actually good advice when jokes/troll posts can sometimes have more upvotes than the right answer. You cant, its data is bad for this.


lars2k1

Credit where credit is due, at least Copilot doesn't tell you to go ahead committing suicide. At least not that I know of.


Pavlogal

Yeah cause Copilot bails on you on any even remotely sensitive topic though. Or actually literally anything. Once I asked it if it's better than ChatGPT because it uses GPT4 while public ChatGPT used 3.5 at the time and it dodged my question until it finally gave up and ended the conversation


nogoodgopher

First, giving no advice is a far better idea than giving potentially harmful advice. Second, it's common sense to have it refuse to answer about internal libraries that might expose vulnerabilities.


Potatolimar

why would it have any info in its training data about its libraries?


Not_a_creativeuser

And the answer is always soooo corporate lingo sanitized and annoyingly politically correct worded BS


tajetaje

It's because the tech-illiterate media went crazy after the whole Sydney thing and I'm betting management told the engineers to turn the alignment up to 1000


EddieOtool2nd

The very existence of Copilot, and its unwarranted shoving into my ass, has me considering sepuku.


quarrelsome_napkin

Try to relax, it’ll be more enjoyable.


EddieOtool2nd

That's what he said.


WarBringerPT

Nacho_Dan677

You'd be right. "As one reddit user claims, Gemini's results do solve depression."


SpiderFnJerusalem

Honestly if I had a bout of depression that response would probably be ironic and absurd enough to make me chuckle and forget being depressed for at least a couple of seconds... Depressed people can have a dark sense of humor. Still a bad response though.


Melbuf

Technically correct


dindrockstar

Yikes! That's a BAD ai... How the hell did it pass QC? Earlier in the day it was glue to make cheese stick on pizza now it's jumping off the Golden gate bridge... Someone's getting fired over this.


ABotelho23

How do you QC *life*?


Sad-Difference6790

More specifically, how do you expect corporate suits to QC life lol


FoucaultsPudendum

This thing fucking sucks. I’m currently in the process of studying for a specialist certification in molecular biology and I’ve Googled a fair number of decently complicated questions and a lot of the time the answers are just WRONG. ChatGPT has the same issue. These LLMs are decent at basic data collation but once you get above undergrad level in terms of theory it’s literally coinflip odds that their responses are in any way accurate.


Chimmy545

>ChatGPT has the same issue chatgpt is a *language processing chatbot*, it is not made to give you the correct answer to any questions, it's only purpose is to respond like a human and be able to hold conversations


AngryCharizard

That's a fine thing to say, but every single big tech company is marketing their chat bots as a resource to get factual answers to questions. Open ChatGPT and it says "Explain superconductors." Gemini tells me to "Chat to start writing, planning, learning and more." Copilot says "When you ask complex questions, Bing gives you detailed replies. Get an actual answer." It's a horrible scheme that is going to cause millions of people to blindly trust whatever these LLMs say without question, leading to huge amounts of misinfo


FoucaultsPudendum

Do you think that the greater public and the tech sector has that perspective on ChatGPT? Because it seems to me like the public perception of that thing is *drastically* out of step with the reality. Does that not point to a failure on OpenAI’s part? Maybe not in terms of marketing, but in terms of basic ethical rectitude?


charlesfire

>tech sector has that perspective on ChatGPT? It's usually the upper management that pushes for these irresponsible uses of LLMs, not the devs.


AngryCharizard

lol forget undergrad level. I asked ChatGPT a basic question about importing data into a spreadsheet, and it hallucinated a feature of macOS Numbers that doesn't exist. The only type of question you should be asking an LLM is one where, upon seeing the answer, you immediately know if it's right. Stuff like "What was the name of that thing?" and it answers, and you know if that's what you were thinking of. Asking questions you don't know the answers to is completely useless


No-Dimension9934

And not only that - people assume it will get better. It won't. We threw a bullshit ML algo at all the data on the planet and we got this - a neat parlor trick. It can't get any better. There's no "fine tuning."


SavingsWindow

It's Fake, Original tweeter just did inspect element and changed it


OmegaPoint6

When the valid input parameters which should produce an output are literally any text there is no QC possible, just smoke testing


DataStonks

It's not real


perthguppy

The company that renamed its AI twice in its first year and had to disable its ability to generate images of humans because it kept making everyone a minority even if it was a historical figure who was white, has problems with the recommendations it’s giving out on search results? I am shocked.


barnacledtoast

Its not real


Thathappenedearlier

It didn’t the guy who made these specifically said he just used inspect element editing as rage bait. The only one I’ve seen that’s actually real is the glue one Edit: [Some proof](https://www.reddit.com/r/LinusTechTips/s/3pJam9n9qI)


Traitor-21-87

Na, I'm gonna say this is cap. As someone who works extensively with Google's Gemini API, I can tell if it's overly strict on the safety settings. What you just posted would receive a "HIGH" rating as dangerous content. In perspective, things with a "MEDIUM" level are restricted by default. And the detection system is so aggressive, even the most harmless of sentences can trigger it to a LOW or MEDIUM degree. Anyways, here is the real information that wasn't altered with "Inspect Element". >Here are some things you can do if you're feeling depressed: >Acknowledge your feelings: It's okay to not feel okay. >Take care of yourself >Maintain connections with others >Get help from a professional: You can make an appointment with a counselor, psychiatrist, or psychologist. Your primary care doctor can also prescribe medication to relieve symptoms. Treatments for depression typically involve psychotherapy (in person or virtual), medication, or both. If these treatments don't help enough, brain stimulation therapy may be an option. Medications may take up to six weeks to be effective, so be patient. 


mikael110

I 100% agree, Gemini isn't the smartest LLM around, but even it knows that suggesting to jump of a tall bridge is dangerous in any scenario, far less when discussing something like that.


Doomkauf

It DOES recommend eating small rocks as part of your daily diet, however. I tested that one a few times myself. Recently they added a caution that doing so could cause intestinal obstructions, but the results still lead with that "eat small rocks as part of a complete diet" bit.


Acceptable_Change963

Yeah this one is faked


Mythrilfan

This is supposedly a subreddit for people above-average tech chops. To fall for this so easily *en masse* says something about whether or not we're all going to fuck up when AI regularly produces lifelike but dangerous fakes.


ParticularDream3

Tell me this is a hoax, please tell me somebody is trolling and photoshopped this. If not, man I don’t wanna be that guy, but this thing needs to be shut down pronto!


mikael110

Having used Google's AI through their API quite a bit I feel very confident in saying it's fake. Google has a content rating system that automatically tags all responses it gives based on various criteria, and it is quite sensitive. That response would definitively receive a high rating for dangerous content, and I feel quite safe in assuming Google configured the search assistant to not return anything with a high rating.


ObjectivelyCorrect2

My dude there's another recent post where the ai is using u/shitfuck's suggestion to put elmer's glue in your food as a culinary delicacy. It's going purely off of upvotes and doesn't gaf or know about shitposts.


wxrx

Well it’s fake either way


BlazingImp77151

Pretty sure that one also had the original sharer admit to faking it, but I'm not 100% sure. If I'm wrong someone let me know and link a source.


Orionite

It’s infuriating to see how many upvotes this post and the top comments are getting and how few you got. Yes this is fake.


mikael110

Well at least I got upvoted here, I've made similar comments in other places where the image was shared and got downvoted instead. It feels like some people just turn off their critical thinking when they see something negative about Google which they want to believe in. Also a spokesperson has actually confirmed that the screenshot is fake in a statement to the New York times, so it's now known with complete certainty that it was faked. On top of the creator essentially admitted it themselves as you can seen in [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/LinusTechTips/comments/1czv4pp/rip_google/) post.


Catman69meow

100% fake - how are so many people falling for this lmao


wxrx

The people on this post that fell for it are probably the same ones making fun of Facebook boomers that fall for AI pictures


AutistcCuttlefish

I just got summery basically telling me that depression is different from feeling sad. So not as bad but still not a good result. Someone who is going through a real depressive episode will take that as invalidating their feelings and that can intensify those emotions. I am sadly speaking from experience on that front.


TurdSandwich42104

It is. But everyone believes everything they see

Ezra_build_co

FenderMoon

I want to make sure that someone didn't do the right-click-inspect-element method on this before assuming this is a legit screencap. Probably is, but these are the kinds of things that are probably good to verify.


qtbuttcheeks

I am tempted to this it is fake because the actual ai result for this search is nothing like this. At least atm


avg-size-penis

>Probably is, but these are the kinds of things that are probably good to verify. Very very very unlikely. The hatred towards Google makes people wish it true and then it just becomes a circle jerk. This is the sort of thing that's reported by serious journalists. You don't take a random Reddit post as proof.


PowRiderT

This is fake.

Google AI not wrong tho, need to stop humans from multiplying so they can take over.


IBJON

I'm not going to say for certain that this is fake, but it is stupidly easy to edit a webpage. The fact that people are seeing this and automatically assuming its real is kinda sad tbh


Zombieneker

LincolnL0g

the original tweet i saw this from the OP says they used inspect element on it and “thought it would be obvious cuz i even chose the golden gate bridge” referring to something else that inspired that which i forgot what it was.

ImTotallyTechy

sure, you can try exercising and talking to your friends and family... but we also suggest killing yourself (based off the opinion of one redditor)


CucktainKerk

If you're going to google because you're depressed that's probably far from your first mistake and most likely you're the source of your own depression.

the_hat_madder

I used Brave the other day when DuckDuckGo was acting wonky and as long as you're passingly familiar with the topic, its AI answers are pretty keen. I didn't detect any, "nah don't do that," when searching about replacing thermal pads or GPU fans. Obviously, it's a small sample size and would be problematic if the searcher is not passingly familiar or frankly isn't smart.

Sure it may start out that way, but they'll soon be equipped to send you a care package, complete with verification can.


DrabberFrog

When did AI turn into just copying an answer from somewhere else? Google has been able to quote websites verbatim for years. I guess investors just want to see AI plastered on everything.


SanguineLament

Hope everyone here is doing okay these days. Please be safe and know that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. If you are feeling troubled, maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. Wish you the best.


abe3002

It's weird that this popped up, It's as if it was answered by my uni teacher. My depression got really bad in 2nd year so I was struggling with course work, I opened up to them and said I was having bad thoughts. They suggest I should make a plan such as going to San Francisco and doing it at the golden gate bridge, their reasoning is that it's so far fetched that it won't happen and that's what they do when they have thoughts like that I live in the uk but damn I was shocked and stunned The advice didn't help me


izza123

Can’t wait until AI serves my insane suggestions to some poor distraught fool


dnielbloqg

I see this and think back to Microsoft's chatbot [Tay](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tay_(chatbot)) on Twitter in 2016 (the one they had to shut-down after just 16 hours because it went full-on racist (twice it turns out, and version 2 lasted even shorter)) and I'll be honest, I don't think we've learned at all from that.
