Reply to comment by Fake_William_Shatner in ChatGPT: Use of AI chatbot in Congress and court rooms raises ethical questions by mossadnik

If there’s only ONE objective/factually reality, then we can program AI to perceive only ONE objective/factual reality.

The sun is hot. Agree? You think a good AI would be able to say, “no, the sun is cold.”?

The gasses we release into the atmosphere effect climate. Agree? You think a good AI would be able to say, “no, humans cannot effect climate.”?

Science aims to be as factual and accurate as possible. I imagine a true AI would know the scientific method and execute it perfectly.

Yes, some scientists are wrong, but the truth/facts usually prevail.

I don’t know if I’m making sense haha

Reply to comment by nuisanceCreator in Could ChatGPT supercharge false narratives? by Wagamaga

With a bit of critical thinking most manipulative narratives can be seen from 'miles away'. Yet we've seen with COVID deniers, Q-anon manipulations, and certain ex-president sprouting nonsense each and every day that a large group just follow the narrative.

So what's a false narrative: Avoidable harm caused by that narrative. A narrative that's causing fear, uncertainty and doubt. A narrative that attacks a person to win an argument but doesn't provide a solution...

Reply to Some popular accounts likely to disappear from Twitter as Elon Musk ends free access to API by printial

This kind of has us scrambling a bit, actually. Not because we'd have to pay per se, but rather we've been using their API for so long on our website (and def still on v1.1) that now when we check the developer site it just funnels to a "Sign up" and no longer shows us our existing/old apps, so we cannot find/figure out which account was linked to our production credentials (and that's really on us for not staying on top of which account that was).

But even if we login to the account that holds our test API credentials (maintained entirely separately for security reasons), it doesn't show our app at all, which is annoying AF. Add to all that, when we try to login to one of our accounts to see if that is the one linked to our credentials, it forces 2FA via email which normally would be fine, but: Their emails aren't even working.

Twitter feels so broken right now and barely over a week's notice is a huge PITA when our dev team is already pretty slammed as it is.

I have full confidence in America's legal system to protect itself from innovation, efficiency and fairness.

No longer having an expensive lawyer making it impossible for some people to be taken to jail, and to bury people who challenge a corporation in a two-tiered justice system -- well, that's just not going to happen on their watch.

Lawyers will just sue anyone who tries to use AI into oblivion -- problem solved. It won't get the opportunity to prove itself for "reasons."

I mean, if we had universal healthcare / Medicaid 4 All -- you no longer need a lot of people in the insurance industry. A lot of bill collectors and accountants. You also lose about half of the attorneys making a living on personal injury.

You'd still have corporate law. But, behind the scenes, everyone would be taking advantage of AI to create documents, file motions, find relevant laws and subpoenas and the like.
