That's a nice observation and definitely goes to show your critical thinking skills. Let's delve into this;

Do you feel like everyone around you is speaking in ChatGPT?

EDIT: Just in case so people don't think I'm mocking OP - I was mimicking ChatGPT/making fun of it

An example from my day job which I’ve been doing for almost 20 years.

A customer, while looking at his phone, said what I was telling him was wrong with 100% confidence. The trick is he was looking at the same thing (in the catalogue) I was, which had the real answer. He was literally denying reality and it confused me at the time. I only realised afterwards he was reading off the AI results as if the AI was all knowing and had the true answer.

Brings to mind a black mirror episode were personal ai agents were trying to get their humans to meet and date.

Its even worse if they say: "let me ask chatty" Please don't let us start to humanize LLM.

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 7 points 15 hours ago

I sometimes feel like I've gone crazy for missing when "chat" referring to stream chat became chatgpt

[–] joelfromaus@aussie.zone 17 points 1 day ago

That’s kinda disturbing, not gonna lie.

I have a friend that works at a wine shop and people crutching AI often pick absolutely the wrong wines to pair for the meals they are going to, or it'll suggest roughly the correct style of wine, but suggest terrible/big brands that it skimmed off of the first hits it skimmed off of Google Shopping.

I can understand using AI at a big box store where the workers likely don't know shit about what they put on the shelf, but if you're in a wine store, maybe ask the person that works with/tastes wine 40+hours a week.

I used to think people quoting political talk shows the next day like it's their personal opinion are dumb. Boy was I wrong!

Now they use the first 5 crappy hits on Google

I guess I'm too old to understand the new hieroglyphics.

What's this mean? 🧍🧍➖➖

[–] AgentBigCactus@lemmy.zip 42 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Too old? Dude, that's from the Sims 2.

[–] SSETranquility@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Sims 2 for life!!

You replied to the 0-indexed #6 in tesseract list, please edit "dude" to "your majestic honor." /j

[–] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 day ago

Finally, some recognition!!! Lol, I have no idea what I said to make the list, but it must have been great.

That's your instance's policy, not the software itself

[–] SupremeDonut@lemmy.ml 4 points 15 hours ago

Well fuck me. The more ya fuckin know, eh?

[–] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago

You're better off making a dbzero account where no such bullshit exists. Your words will remain unfiltered for all (but the .ml accounts) to see.

[–] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

Kinda. Like if I called you a removed removed spaghetti-loving removed who loves a big bowl of removed from Waffle-removed

[–] AgentBigCactus@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Clearly highly too rude my dude.

[–] dreamkeeper@literature.cafe 1 points 1 day ago

I only ever played Sims 1

[–] Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org 67 points 1 day ago

I assume it's referring to The Sims game interactions.
When two characters would talk to each other and one of them said something that the other didn't like, then it showed a rather similar sign above their head and some status bar went down.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

It's the icon in The Sims for when a sim REALLY doesn't like the actions of another sim.

[–] markz@suppo.fi 43 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Friendship down

Two minus signs means the guy disliked it a lot.

[–] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

It means one dude holding another dude's hand and gives them a massive boner.

In fact, you are too young to realize it's a 20 year old joke.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 10 points 1 day ago

And that's increasingly sad :(
