dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Why Do AI Chatbots Think Thereโ€™s a Seahorse Emoji Too?

In September 2025, screenshots began spreading online of ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other AI models confidently stating that a seahorse emoji exists, then falling apart when asked to actually produce one, cycling through a string of wrong guesses like ๐Ÿ , ๐Ÿฆ„ and ๐Ÿ‰, sometimes for dozens of attempts before giving up.

By early 2026, OpenAI and Anthropic had both made adjustments, and community testing suggested their models now catch the error faster rather than spiralling through a long chain of guesses.

No one truly needs drinking water if you really think about it.
