No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I'm really confused here, what do you mean?

I'm referring to two friends right next to each other, talking silly shit in person, like what's the random phone microphone and associated AI think of the words it hears?

We (me and my roommate) just got done joking about a crazy woman that wanted to have 6 babies with me and wanted to move to Canada ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

I'm not asking about any AI chatbot, I'm asking what do the random phone microphones and associated AI systems think of random jokes it heard?

OP is responding to your original question. If you're asking if it safe to do it, then you are worried about the consequences of doing it and wonder if you should stop. That would mean that you are "obeying a rule before it exists".

As to your current comment, you should understand that current "AI" solutions do not think anything. If the current solutions were used for mass surveillance, then they would be used to classify your actions in some predefined way and whomever is using them will use this classification in some (possibly nefarious) unknown way

Yo, you both make good points. Sorry I didn't explain the joke/banter we were discussing.

We (in person) were joking for around 10 minutes or so about a crazy woman that literally wanted to have 6 children with me and move to Canada.

She's crazy and was recently evicted, but we continue to joke about it. But it really makes me wonder, what if the microphones and AI shit around hear our silly banter and take it seriously, like thinking I'm about to move to Canada (I'm not).

Long question short, does AI know the difference between serious words or jokes?

To answer your question MUCH more concisely: with a probability, within a context limit.
