You’re techie enough to figure out Lemmy but don’t grasp that AI doesn’t think.

Thinking has nothing to do with it. The positive context in which the bot was trained made it unlikely for a sentence describing a likely negative reaction to be output.

People on Lemmy are absolutely rabid about "AI" they can't help attacking people who don't even disagree with them.

Indeed, there's a pretty big gulf between the competency needed to run a Lemmy client and the competency needed to understand the internal mechanics of a modern transformer.

Do you mind sharing where you draw your own understanding and confidence that they aren't capable of simulating thought processes in a scenario like what happened above?
