Consider the young persons of today - going about their lives with their AI functions and ChatGPT or Mistral technologies - trying to hide the fact that they have cheated on their school homework, when it's really the tech created by that rogue Sam Altman that's done the research and drafting of it - but they should hang their heads in shame, because it can't replicate how the boys in Scotland talk amongst themselves in this day and age.

Fuck me I wrote that, and still struggled to rewrite it in British English.

First, this scientific paper is throwing shade left and right. Did a Scot wrong them in some way?

Second, does this mean a healthy variety of Scottish dialects will be our secret weapon against AI surveillance?

I don’t think it’s a scientific paper. The first author is from cranberry-lemon university, not Carnegie-Mellon

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I wasn't paying attention to that at all, hah. "William Wallace University"? Very on the nose. Had to search up "Cazique of Poyais", but that's a good ref too. Now I'm wondering what this is from.

*A quick search suggests it's from this book of satirical research papers.

I don’t know if the scholars at cranberry-lemon university studying interracial computer science are all that trustworthy

How'd they get away with those keywords?
