Well it had the most up votes! So clearly it was the most generally useful and true response in the whole thread!
Because on Reddit (and here on Lemmy) people use up and downvotes exclusively to rate the quality of a post, not as a tool to show disapproval without having to be able to actually articulate why. I like when social interactions go exactly as intended - like in this case - and don’t devolve into two people arguing with silent mobs behind them.
/s for everyone who’s as blind to sarcasm as this shitty AI from Google.
Humor IS a quality though. Human voters are able, in aggregate, able to award certain types of humor. Which an LLM is not able to. Which gets recycled with no context, as fact.
The internet would be a vastly different place if sarcasm and in jokes were not regarded as a type of “quality” content.
Well, there’s an oddly existential argument to be made that “funny” AI answers like this or adding a pot of Elmer’s Glue to pizza sauce to get the cheese to stick are valued. Simply because those are the posts I’ve seen from Google AI, and I’ve never touched the feature myself.
By letting a language “speaker” learn from Reddit and forums, we created an approximation of “that guy who thinks he’s a comedian” because that guy is always there and always drowns in upvotes. Clearly, he’s a valuable part of the discourse!
You want carnage? Can we please feed it the entire history of 4chan?
Reddit already has /r/greentext, so it’s only a matter of time before Google tells you that you’re fake and gay.
Googles “Suicide help line”
Google: “Do it Fa**ot”
LoL, it’s literally:
Google then: Stop, there’s always helps.
Google now: go and jump off the golden gate bridge.
This is what happens when you don’t really care about your service.
And we thought boomers reading shit off Facebook was bad. Now they have AI feeding it to them.
Google: You know those LLMs?
Engineer: Yes, what about it?
G: So I took one of those and I vomited diarrhea into its mouth-
E: Wait, what?
boomers reading shit off Facebook
Says a generation that believes everything a YouTuber tells them lol
Not a boomer btw
reddit is shit. using it the train AI was a mistake already.
We should cut the shit then…
My new peak is the chance that I’ll see some comment I made on Reddit be famous in this way.
As long as it doesn’t hurt anyone.
Do you think the noteriety would increase the value of the account if sold?
I wouldn’t sell it and give Reddit the pleasure of it ever logging in again. And it’s near OG age.
Plus I probably doxxed myself to myself over the years.
