reminds me of that Ken Patti twitter post:

I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of Trump rallies and then asked it to write a Trump rally of its own. Here is the first page.

Lets not ignore the glorius coal milk and digging for it, or the animated gun.

Man in a hard hat, man in a harder hat, gun that is alive.

Great jobs. Tall jobs. Steve Jobs.

I don't know why, but this line got me.

I think because I can't tell if it's AI, or Trump. AI is good at melting in things that sound like they belong but don't (Steve Jobs), but given the original material it learned from it might actually be faithfully riffing on the source.

It's not actually written by a chatbot anyways, it's just written to sound like it is

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's really not even that. These were generally considered to be obvious fakes when they became popular about 5 years ago.

In particular, they made funny mistakes that weren't very likely from the models of the time, while acing things that were very difficult at the time.

Obama drank it. Not fair

who said I hated it? also, it’s not really written by a chatbot. it was later revealed that the comedian had written all of this (and another, similar “chatbot script”) themselves and simply passed it off as such.

I was joking. Forcing anyone or anything to watch 1000 hours of Trump rallies sounds like torture

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

if nothing else, it’s proven to cause irreversible insanity at far fewer than 1000 hours.

I'm pretty sure none of these things are written by a bot.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I just said precisely that

It got the repetitive short sentences that amount to nothing down.
