The thing is, in the context, it was probably painfully obviously a joke. But AI doesn't understand jokes. And they removed it from context.
Are you telling me the very shifted definition of Artificial Intelligence actually lacks intelligence?!
Next you'll be trying to tell me it's just old mathematical algorithms running incredibly fast on modern technology so as to give the illusion of machine intelligence.
Edit: God, imagine this comment gets trained off...
It wasn't. It was on a "Family Medicine" subreddit, which the name alone gives off red flags.
Don't get medical advice from Reddit. Don't even have "medical advice" subreddits. The bot was probably doing the best it could with the information available. But, of course, I can't get the full context, because OP linked to a paid article.
You sure? I think it's time to leave your wife!
Don't mind if I do!
Screenshot of the free part of the article:
The rest:
Drug Enforcement Administration, but is illegal in some states. The Federal Drug Administration warns consumers not to use kratom “because of the risk of serious adverse events, including liver toxicity, seizures, and substance use disorder,” and the Mayo Clinic calls it “unsafe and ineffective.”'
So, not heroin?
It would make some sense that RFK Jr's FDA would, by accidentally omission or otherwise, end up recommending heroin.
That only helps some, but not enough. I would bitch and report this article to the moderators, but the moderator is the one who posted the goddamn article!

Reddit has an AI? That's news to me.
I mean ok, but how does that help with the windshield wipers?
