(I’m going under the assumption that these stories are LLM-generated – they’re weird enough that it’s hard to say for sure, but they’re also weird enough that it seems like a safe assumption.)

One particularly ridiculous article profiles a “Corridor of Fame” football player called “Pleasure Taylor,” which appears to be a mangled reference to NFL Hall of Famer Joy Taylor.

So Rob Miles has I think is a very good take on this – I think this is the video – basically saying, a lot of the nightmare scenarios for AI involve the fact that it’s very easy to design an AI that does something very enthusiastically, but it’s very difficult to predict exactly what it’ll try to do or what goals and approaches it will adopt. In order for the development to proceed safely, people have to prioritize the very hard second problem above the (relatively) easy first problem. And, he says, we predicted that people wouldn’t do that, and bring products to market powered by very poorly-controlled AI systems, and now observing the results of the Bing searchbot it’s safe to say that that’s coming true, and as funny as it is right now that’s potentially a very frightening thing for the future as AI gets more powerful.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Former NBA player Brandon Hunter passed away unexpectedly at the young age of 42 this week, a tragedy that rattled fans of his 2000s career with the Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic.

The rest of the brief report is even more incomprehensible, informing readers that Hunter “handed away” after achieving “vital success as a ahead [sic] for the Bobcats” and “performed in 67 video games.”

It made headlines last month, for instance, after publishing a similarly incoherent AI-generated travel guide for Ottawa, Canada that bizarrely recommended that tourists visit a local food bank.

As a result, as we reported last year, the platform ended up syndicating large numbers of sloppy articles about topics as dubious Bigfoot and mermaids, which it deleted after we pointed them out.

Hunter, initially a extremely regarded highschool basketball participant in Cincinnati, achieved vital success as a ahead for the Bobcats.

Accusing an NBA legend of being “useless” the week he died isn’t just an offensive slip-up by a seemingly unsupervised algorithm, in other words.

The original article contains 882 words, the summary contains 166 words. Saved 81%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
