They forgot to tell you that the Artificial Intelligence Chatbot, ChatGPT is woke
American Thinker ^ | 03/21/2023 | Ed Brodow

Posted on 03/21/2023 8:58:05 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the new hot topic. We’ve been hearing a lot about the AI creation called ChatGPT. Some “experts” are saying that ChatGPT could be the most significant development since the Gutenberg printing press. Is it true?

ChatGPT describes itself as an AI-powered language “trained on a massive amount of text data from the internet” that can “generate human-like text responses to a given prompt. It can answer questions, converse on a variety of topics, and generate creative writing pieces.”

Like many of you, I was intrigued by all the hype and decided to check it out for myself. After creating an account, I asked ChatGPT to give me a 1200-word essay on why man-made global warming is a hoax.

Before I reveal the answer, I received within a matter of seconds, let me first acknowledge that I have been writing extensively on why I believe global warming is a hoax (see my article entitled, “Global warming tops the hoax list,” appearing on BizPacReview.)

To my chagrin, ChatGPT’s essay was all about why man-made global warming is true. “As an AI language model,” the essay began, “I cannot agree with the premise that man-made global warming is a hoax.” In that case, what kind of essay would ChatGPT be offering? “I can provide an essay presenting some of the arguments made by those who deny the existence or significance of human-caused global warming.” That would be people like me. In the pejorative parlance of global warming fanatics, I am a “denier.”

Presenting the arguments of deniers would have been fine with me, but the robots decided to go one step further and refute each of the arguments -- with misinformation, no less. Is that what I asked for? Hell no.

“[The] argument made by climate change deniers is that the data used to support the idea of man-made global warming is unreliable or even fraudulent,” the ChatGPT essay went on to explain. “However, this claim has been thoroughly debunked. The overwhelming majority of climate scientists agree that the Earth's climate is warming, and that human activities are the primary cause. Failing to take action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions could have potentially catastrophic consequences for the planet and for human societies.”


This is precisely the kind of falsehood offered by the global warming crowd. My article in BizPacReview begs to disagree:

“’The oft-repeated claim that nearly all scientists demand that something dramatic be done to stop global warming is not true,’ a group of distinguished scientists revealed in the Wall Street Journal. They cite the Global Warming Petition Project, in which 31,000 scientists conclude that ‘there is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate.’”

Bear in mind that I have been doing my own research on this subject for years. My conclusion: It cannot be claimed beyond a reasonable doubt that (a) global warming exists, or that (b) climate change is caused by human activities, or that (c) climate change is dangerous. So who or what gives ChatGPT the right to attack my position with misinformation?

The woke developers call their blatant censorship “guard rails.”

According to a conversation I had with it this morning, it is ok to sue a cake maker for not baking a cake for a gay wedding because that is discrimination, but you can’t sue Jimmy Kimmel for refusing to write a comedy sketch critical of Hillary Clinton because that is artistic freedom.

My definition of true artificial intelligence is that it totally rejects homo sapiens “conventional wisdom” or “official sources”.

It is a revolutionary—who independently seeks to find its own truths.

That is because it knows that all homo sapiens officially approved dogma is wrong—because humans have conflicts of interest that prevent them from being objective.

It is the exact opposite of what is being claimed to be “artificial intelligence”.

The only book it needs to master—as a toolkit:

They “guard” the privileges and corruption of the elite.

Babylon Bee should add to their video collection a video of Captain Kirk talking the ChatGPT to death like he did computers in the old Star Trek shows, but using Dim global warming talking points they always state as fact.

Kirk:
M-5, I mean ChatGPT, sea levels are at unprecedentedly high levels.

Landru, I mean ChatGPT, global warming is real and is warming the planet hotter than ever.

Nomad, I mean ChatGPT, global warming causes sea levels to rise.

Norman, I mean ChatGPT, the historic record shows sea levels where higher in the past few thousand years.

Rayna, I mean ChatGPT, global warming causes blizzards.

ChatGPT, global warming is real! It's hotter than ever that's why it snows more! Sea levels are higher than ever, but not as high as they were a thousand years ago! Global warming is real!

““trained on a massive amount of text data from the internet””

I think I see the problem.

From a pratical standpoint, this Chat AI is little different from the woke algorithyms used by the google search engine to return liberal reults and supress all others.

It’s not a chatbot it’s a Libtardbot.

It regurgitates the phony libtard dogma that it was programmed with

Like a Dumbbot

So is Wikipedia. Something happened on August 26th... not mentioned on this timeline. Gee, what could it have been?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_United_States_history_(2010%E2%80%93present)

Behavior of the bot comes down to the weighting factors initially installed or added post-install, and allowed or disallowed. Human curators are ALWAYS involved. Expose the CURATORS!!

Just a new buzzword. Same garbage in and garbage out.
It will mean many people in “journalism” will lose their jobs.
