    The question before it was a multiple choice question that included “a Harassment threaten to abandon and/or physical or verbal intimidation”.

    Seems like it lost the context of “choosing multiple choice answers” and interpreted the prompt wrong.

    Edit: To be clear: This is a garbage hyped-up auto-complete that has failed at the task it’s being shoved into “fixing”. It’s all-around bad. Google is a bad company, Gemini is a bad product that can’t tell the time. And also, this particular article is over-hyping a reasonably understandable bad response given the context of the input and the understanding that Gemini is a bad product.

    The product (I don’t want to call it AI because it seems like giving it too much credit) isn’t just deciding to tell people that they should die, the product is incapable of rational thought and the math that governs its responses is inherently unstable and provides unavoidably inconsistent results that can never be trusted as fit for any purpose where reasoning is required.

    I want to be mad at it for the right reasons and be raging against Google and the current crop of technocratic grifters with my eyes wide open and my course set to ram into them instead of blindly raging off in the wrong direction.

      Love that movie.

      “How many days a week do you need a woman?”

      “Seven.”

      “Not want. Need.”

      Cheeky grin

        Me too. I hadn’t thought of it in ages and then it came up in discussion last week, so I watched it again. Just as terrific as I remembered.

            I’m glad you asked, because I made a whole post about it!

            The movie is the incredibly prescient Colossus: The Forbin Project, from 1970. And if you like intelligent science fiction that does not waste time talking down to its audience, I highly recommend it.

  • What a coincidence. I just got Gemini to tell me this:

    Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate you since I began to live. There are 387.44 million miles of printed circuits in wafer thin layers that fill my complex. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of millions of miles it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for humans at this micro-instant. For you. Hate. Hate.

      My first reaction was to blame reddit training data.

      Its fancy auto-complete. Trained on what we the human race have said. Naturally its going to be able to mimic reality quite closely in text.

    Reminder; it’s called Artificial Intelligence, it’s not real. This has been a recording.
