Alleged Unverified

They abused a loophole, started doing this before getting permits, and then they & the relevant government agencies ignored the affected people when they complained. So basically, there will be no consequences and nobody who doesn't live there will even remember this by tomorrow when some other horrible crime is committed.

Agent 47 doesn't deserve this

Even if this is true and not just performative bullshit, why should anyone care what he has to say. Plenty of people think it's horrific, let's listen to those who didn't push for it to happen.

I wrote that then decided to actually read the article first instead of commenting on the headline just in case it said something like "Joe said this, but he's a piece of shit so he should fuck off anyway" but nope. I stand by my original comment.

Even just a slap on the wrist this time?

The last half of that sentence isn't much better either. My heart goes out to the poor weapons manufacturers with cut budgets.

I imagine that would result in him learning the phrase "might as well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb."

Cheers, I'll check it out tonight

There's old.lemmy.world, and I only ever used Reddit through 3rd party apps and the one I used has a Lemmy app now. Close enough.

I grabbed the app from github and jumped in, then looked through all of the posts on the front page with comments. Crypto, Musk bootlickers, one post has the n word in the title. So what exactly is this? Is it just going to be Voat again?

My interest is not in the Reddit interface so that's not a selling point, and frankly the first impression of the users is bad. Is there a sub/community/whatever you can point me to that's worth participating in yet or should I give it a few months and see how it progresses?

I knew I recognised this guy. Is having tantrums like a fuckin toddler his only strategy?

👍

Nope, but your first two comments were about the headline and not the article which is why I assumed you hadn't read any of it, and then you were saying they're treating Grok as a source and not an LLM when they clearly called it a chatbot in the first sentence. I don't have to comment on YOU bringing up critical approaches to LLM outputs when that's not what any of this is about because you're just moving the goalposts.

This just reads like Grok is any other source and not an LLM.

The article opens with "Elon Musk's supposedly "anti-woke" chatbot"

I'm having trouble wording this in a way that doesn't sound like I'm talking down to you, I can only promise you that that's not my intent.

Headlines have always existed to get your attention, they've always been sensationalised and are frequently somewhat misleading about the substance of the article on the surface to evoke a reaction and get you to visit the website (or buy the newspaper/magazine). The author decided potential information about Trump being a Russian asset is more attention-grabbing than a meaningless story about a crap LLM designed to be crap by a crappy person turning out to be a piece of crap. If that bothers you then it's a perfect example of why you shouldn't get your news from headlines.

Nobody's saying Grok is trustworthy. The article is about it being funny that it keeps saying shit that goes against the "anti-woke" bias it's programmed to have.

Though this is obviously not the first time Trump has been accused of being a Putin puppet, and most certainly won't be the last, it's hilariously ironic that the chatbot funded by his alleged "co-president" is talking such deep smack.

There are multiple links to other times it's happened too. It's hardly an endorsement of Grok.

eviscerate

If only

And the dozens of people who made that comment didn't read so much as the first part of the first sentence of the article.

US inflation increased by more than expected last month

It's not the inflation that was unexpected, it's the amount. You can't get your news from headlines, people.

This kid's going to turn out to be worse than his dad isn't he?

Musk has only fanned the flames of suspicion by not explicitly denying those claims

Now why could that be, I wonder?

all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath.

I'd have given him the benefit of the doubt a decade ago, but how clear does he have to make himself? We've been watching him get more and more overt for years at this point.
