This is a salient point that's well worth discussing. We should not be training large language models on any supposedly factual information that people put out. It's super easy to call out a bad research study and have it retracted. But you can't just explain to an AI that that study was wrong, you have to completely retrain it every time. Exacerbating this issue is the way that people tend to view large language models as somehow objective describers of reality, because they're synthetic and emotionless. In truth, an AI holds exactly the same biases as the people who put together the data it was trained on.

But you see, he kind of looks like another guy that was caught on a surveillance camera the same morning. Another guy, who was wearing visibly different clothes from the shooter

That's the part that bugs me the most. It's not just that he had a hard copy, it's not just that he had it on hand, it's that he had a hard copy on hand. The point of a manifesto isn't to let it sit in your car next to the murder weapon you used 3 days ago, the point is to have other people read it.

A manifesto that sounds like someone asked chatGPT to generate a short manifesto expressing displeasure at the American healthcare system

The discovery information includes more than 15,000 pages of information and 800 GB of data, per the filing.

Meanwhile they're letting rape kits rot in some locker in some room that hasn't had a light turned on ever since the only employee that has a key retired 3 years ago

No number of gigabytes can make up for the fact that Luigi isn't the guy who shot the guy

It's different because people are actually working together

Never played H.A.W.X., so I can't offer a comparison. As far as elaborate control setups, I played it on Xbox, and a regular controller was plenty sufficient

I just don't trust it no matter how accurate it claims to be. Until I can ask the machine what it sees that informed its opinion, I won't believe it when it tells me whether I do or don't have cancer.

Disease and cars say otherwise

Neither, that's why I can't believe it

(Enter RADISHN'T, MOTHMAN MISATO, BOIMG FROG and CATS'N RAINCOATS, stage left. They are having a HEATED DISCUSSION.)

RADISHN'T: Prithee, which one of you had planned to tell

Of diff'rent flavours gained by simple act

Of brewing tea with water hot, not cold?

MOTHMAN: Egad! you poured the water cold? Wherefore?!

FROG: An answer from you, Radish, I must beg.

RADISHN'T: Indeed I did, dear friends - why does this shock?

Without the guide of others I assumed

That heat was merely added for the sake

Of expediting this solution's brewing!

Half a decade I have spent, or more,

Not questioning this worldview I had made.

In fact, I am myself a bit surprised

That you might think that I, your dearest friend,

Might have a patience of sufficient stock

To wait until a pot of water boils.

FROG: Three minutes overtaxes patience so?

The microwave will beep when it is done!

CATS'N: My friend, this answer vexes me the more!

Can it be true that thou dost boil by nuke?!

FROG: Are you in turn, my friend, so shocked to know

That I have not the patience, like our Root,

To boil upon the stove our favour'd drink?

CATS'N: It takes less than a minute!

FROG: On what plate?

Perhaps your dinner cooks atop the sun?

CATS'N: How long can take your stove to fill the task

Of boiling but a single cup alone?

FROG: In minutes?

CATS'N: Yes!

FROG: I counted seven, once.

CATS'N: Perhaps you ought to have your timepiece checked!

If on a middle heat you place the cup

You soon will have the scalding drink you crave.

Two minutes, in a mug upon the plate

Or even less, if you should have a pot.

FROG: You cause me tears - is this how thou dost live?

You place upon the iron stove a mug?

A mug, ceramic, filled with water cold?

How do these flames, though medium in height,

Not shatter like a glass this fragile thing?

Surely, then, your kitchen is bewitched

With magicks far beyond the mortal ken!

(The FOUR realise they have wandered into the THRONE ROOM. The ROYAL COURT watches with fascination.)

KING: Ev'ry single person in this group

must be a fucking lunatic, it seems.
