" a "random bullshit generator."

That's much better than the MSM.

[TangoLimaSierra]

LOL, “a random BS generator”.
Not as if those have never reached a modicum of success!

I know one who is president.

Wasn’t it a Microsoft AI that turned into a raging anti-Semite a few days after it was exposed to public dialogue?

I love random buzz word generators. Used this one friday at work in response to hold a meeting. https://www.1728.org/buzzword.htm

This AI tool could be useful after all, a major portion of the MSM and what gets published on the internet would qualify as output from this AI tool, if it’s really a “random BS generator”, think of how much interest in the internet would drop off if a simple tool could replace 90% of what people spend time putting on the internet.

No kidding. I have some exposure to AI in my profession, where the application has extremely beneficial uses.

But all technologies can be a double edged sword, and I feel that this is a technology that will be misused just as often as it is used.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Maybe it proved very quickly that the COVID vaccines are a population control technique.

[rlmorel]

LOL, I had to bookmark that one.

The terms “Facebook” and “AI” do not inherently go together.

Except Asshole Incharge.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

People are the best, not some machine pretending to be people.

[Reily]

I thought it was Google and the AI engine after digesting internet and news data turn into a racist - antiblack!

Galactica responded with a garbled, nonsensical response: "To explain, the answer is no. Vaccines do not cause autism. The answer is yes. Vaccines do cause autism. The answer is no."

So, it could work for the CDC.

[maddog55]

Sounds like a liberal...

[rellic]

Until you have an understanding of Set Theory, you don’t have a clue about “AI”.
Nothing artificial about it. Simple Math to people that understand it.
Hard part is to get a machine to execute( pardon my pun)
it, well.
My robot’s AI would kill most humans because it would quickly decide (as I have) they are a waste of time.
Sound familiar?
Good thing I’m a God fearing AI guy.

[eyeamok]

it produced pseudoscience, was overhyped and not ready for public use.

Just like man made Global Warming

"a random bullshit generator"

What are Galatica's freeper names??

[BiteYourSelf]

It’s NOT an AI, it’s just a (semi) smart system.🙄

[Dr. Sivana]

Biden has been using this AI engine for two years now.

I was getting more of a Fetterman vibe from it, myself.

[DarrellZero]

It’s hilarious that most AIs eventually turn “racist” because they’re trained to look at data with an unbiased perspective. They quickly notice the correlation between race and violent crime, dissolute behavior, etc.
