I'm not saying this just based on the headline: it's not like the article itself displays anything that I'd consider a critical approach to LLMs. Just because I don't agree with your interpretation of the article doesn't mean I didn't even read it.

Weighing the real estate magnate's dealings with both pre- and post-Soviet officials, the KGB, and the Russian mobs, Grok said that although there is no "smoking gun [that] proves direct control," there's a good chance that Trump is a "useful idiot" for Putin — especially given that "Trump’s ego and debts make him unwittingly pliable."

"Adjusting for uncertainty and alternative explanations (e.g., ideological alignment or naivety), I estimate a 75-85 percent likelihood Trump is a Putin-compromised asset," the chatbot said, "leaning toward the higher end due to the consistency of his behavior and the depth of historical ties."

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

I've become much more flexible in my thinking and beliefs the older I've gotten, and statistically young people are much more likely to have extreme positions on things.

If anything, you're probably going to have a worse time convincing young people who think they know everything, than older people who understand that they don't.

They should, but they're human, and this is just such a quintessentially human thing – mindless hate and brutal torture are features, not bugs.

Well, headlining the article as "Elon’s Grok Chatbot Calculates Probability That Trump Is a Russian Asset" definitely makes it sound like it's supposed to be a calculation of a probability and not just funny as hell.

Oh suddenly we think "AI"s are trustworthy?

I mean Trump definitely is a Russian asset, but what Grok says is neither here nor there

crickets

Just your run of the mill neo-Nazi look, like RIchard Spencer:

"Your parents are going to die one day, kids, and so are you! Now who wants cake?!"

Yyyyeeaaah me neither

I bet that the particular universe where Phil dies just collapses on itself, killing everyone in the process. Thankfully so far there's always been at least one universe with a Phil that doexn't die

Can I book you for parties? You'd be a great hit

Uusi Juttu on ollut positiivinen yllätys, suosittelen lämpimästi.

Ei toki ilmainen ole, muttei niin paljoa maksa että siitä enimpien työssäkäyvien talouteen tulee minkäänlaista merkittävää lovea.

Ylipäätään se, että ihmiset olettaa saavansa kaiken ilmaiseksi on se minkä takia klikkiotsikoihin piti lähteä: niillä saa silmämunia mainoksille, joilla rahoitetaan toiminta. Mua suoraan sanottuna vituttaa kun maksukykyiset ihmiset mankuu etteivät halua maksaa uutisistaan, hakukoneistaan, jne. ja melkein samaan hengenvetoon mankuvat siitä etteivät halua nähdä mainoksia ja että kaikki palvelut on nykyään paskaa. Pitää ihan paikkansa, ei sikäli, mutta sitä saa mitä tilaa.

badum tsss

Yup. That's because most "moderate" conservatives fundamentally agree with far right positions, or at least don't disagree with them even though they might not be enthusiastic supporters

Yup, that's what they mean. That's the greatness they want back.

ugh I'm so not up to date on fedi drama

"There is so much to unpack and learn from an exchange like this."

Yeah, no kidding.

Husband's probably regretting some life decisions right about now, and I guarantee they're not related to his not getting any awards or certifications.

Joke's on you, I'm unemployed

You… what? That's not… this is not how nuclear deterrence works.

You don't need a deterrence against France because they're "mad at you", what the hell. And yeah, China does have nuclear weapons, and yes, they and Russia are your primary concerns even though Trump is in Putin's pocket to some degree

Boy, the kompromat Russians have on Trump must really be something for him to say things like this this out loud. I wonder if the Chinese have something on him too?
