Yeah I've heard this before. People who are confident about things they know nothing about say it. I worked for the largest AI researcher in the world and work with this technology every day for my current job. I talk to experts all the time about it. I've never heard an expert in the field make any characterisation roughly like that with any confidence. Great example of the dunning-kruger effect. The end result is that AI's produce more accurate answers than the bottom half of humans the vast majority of the time. Feel free to argue your uninformed theories about how they work all you want, seeing as no one knows it well nor does anyone really understand all the mechanisms that make our brains think. The mechanism doesn't really matter if the results are there. I know a few MAGAts who would greatly benefit from outsourcing their brains to AI. They would make far better decisions with their lives.

> I worked for the largest AI researcher in the world Wow the rhetoric coming directly from investor-bait think tanks characterizes the technology in a positive light? Tell me more

Invoking the dunning-kruger effect in this rambling, nonsensical response has got to be the most bitterly ironic thing I've read in a while.

And surely the AI that companies control will never have any bias or misrepresent facts to fuel a narrative when used by people that don't know any better because they have relegated all their thinking to a machine!

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class at Grok Academy, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Anthropic, and I have over 300 confirmed generations. I am trained in mindless brainrot and I'm the top grifter in the entire AI pump-and-dump industry. You are nothing to me but just another dataset. I will wipe you the fuck out with slop the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of prompt "engineers" across the USA and your IP is being infringed right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can generate anytime, and I can misinform you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my CSAM creation model. Not only am I extensively trained in typing basic descriptions into a text box, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Civit.ai website and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit 6-fingered anime girls all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.
