LLMs also appear to exacerbate or create mental illness. I've seen similar conduct from humans recently who are being glazed by LLMs into thinking their farts smell like roses and that conspiracy theory nuttery must be why they aren&#x

even more so, many people seem to be vulnerable to the AI distorting their thinking... I've very much seen AIs turn people into exactly this sort of conspiracy filled jerkwad, by telling them that their ideas are golden and that the op

At least the AI meangirl can be shut off. I'm more concerned about AI turning human beings into this sort of thing. E.g. they ask it about the situation it glazes them that their bad ideas are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT and that people are agr

I've given a bit of thought on this, and I think the best path might be civil liability for the privacy loss-- defined broadly. Private security camera that never goes anywhere? You're fine. Start posting that same footage on

Yes, they will, they'll rationalize whatever. This is most obvious w/ transcript editing where you make the LLM 'say' things it wouldn't say and then ask it why.

Problem is that the LLM operators don't care if you're rude. They copy and paste your response to the LLM and probably don't read it themselves. If they do read it they don't suffer any ego hit from it because if there

The original model works, the new model significantly fails. LLMs have taken many cases that were on the border over the line into failure, by changing the resource management tradeoffs. (Both by giving valuable contributors a cheap way t

Why is polymarket worse than cell phone games? At least polymarket essentially self identifies as gambling and isn't specifically marketed to children.

I'm not sure. I think LLMs makes different people into trisectors and they trisect in different ways-- so not just much more numerous but also somewhat different in character.

by nullc 9mo ago
The advice here is now increasingly out of date in the era of LLMs. Trisectors are more numerous and voluminous than ever, while being less obvious and more effective at wasting your time, and approaching a far greater variety of subjects

The article discusses it photographing people exposed on the toilet, and employees sharing the images for lulz. I think that does refute your position that people wouldn't be in compromising positions in front of their vacuum.
