My brother had a psychotic episode, chatgpt easily told him where to cut his wrists (he lied to it and said he had been injured, and claimed he was just trying to ascertain the damages)

He's ok now ❤️

Grok: “You should be a nazi.”

ChatGPT: “You should kill yourself.”

I’m so glad that so much time, money, energy, and resources have been flushed straight down the fucking toilet for this. Worth it.

Don’t forget Gemini’s “you should put glue on pizza”

There's also ~~Clippy 3.0~~ Copilot. "I see you're trying to be productive, how can I get in the way today?"

[–] mrnobody@reddthat.com 5 points 18 hours ago

Copilot is just re-skinned ChatGPT hosted on Azure. It's funny how so many claim GPT to be so great and yet Copilot is branded the class glue eater.

I'm not sticking up for MS either, they're bad enough shoving it in everyone's faces.

Sweet synthesis: We need a GrokGPT that tells nazis to kill themselves.

I think you’re on to something there. This could be big.

Sam Altman is taking these people's deaths as seriously as Elon Musk. The only difference is one of them will gloat and vice signal, and the other will lie and tremble onstage while he tries to scare people into believing he can barely control his word generator.

Well, it's always worked before...

Stop giving attention to both.

I feel like an accelerationist about this. Let them fight, let them fuck each other into oblivion - I’m not sure we’re capable of waking up until we see our gods debased

The more this world goes on the more I believe that Mike Judge isn't a comedy writer, but an actual prophet.

I shouldn't be telling myself daily that Idiocracy and Silicon Valley predicted all this.

Elon should try and fight him like he did Zuckerberg except don't back out this time.
