It's amusing to me that they spend so much energy explaining that there were a lot of faked screenshots... but in this very same post they admit the tool told people to put glue on pizza and eat rocks!
- skybrian 2y agoWhat do you mean? Both can be true.
- firloop 2y agoOf course, but I would read it differently if the faked screenshots were wildly more absurd what was actually being generated (which in this case, they weren't!)
- gundmc 2y agoThe fake posts involved things like suggestions to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge and that cockroaches often live in human penises. Those were quite a bit more absurd (and dangerous) than the actual falsities.
- Hamuko 2y ago>Some of these faked results have been obvious and silly. Others have implied that we returned dangerous results for topics like leaving dogs in cars, smoking while pregnant, and depression. Meanwhile "add glue to your cheese" was a real result, which I guess was not Google "returning a dangerous result" because they specified that the glue should be non-toxic. Not really sure how obvious smoking while pregnant should be after that.
- piaste 2y agoThe quoted paragraph describes two distinct and _separate_ group: the "obvious and silly" ones, and the "others [which] implied that we returned dangerous results". Smoking while pregnant is listed among the latter.
- prepend 2y agoBoth can be true. But fakes screenshots isn’t relevant to the topic at hand. So why mention it?
