Lmfao holy shit
dam google is really expanding the width of the snake right now
There was a paper about this not long ago. The problem is, how LLMs get trained: a right answer gets a point, everything else gets no points. This rewards guessing (produces a point sometimes) over answering “I don’t know/I can’t do this” (produces never a point)
It’s like when developers give a wrong answer during technical interviews, rather than say “I’d have to look it up” or “I’d have to check the documentation” etc.
This is actually a pretty great way to illustrate what LLMs do. It gives you an answer regardless of whether it makes sense to do so.
It’s so fun to waste energy!
AI drives 48% increase in Google emissions
I love those energy hungry assistants! It’s wasting resources even faster than everything before but it’s so fun and useful!
This is a dumb misconception. High emissions and energy consumption is when training models, not during prompts
False. It’s been shown that resolving prompts also drives a major energy consumption, albeit maybe not so higher than regular search queries.
I think you should be more concerned about the automatic ai responses on every other search, instead of people having a bit of fun with these
I am. That’s why I switched to DDG and deactivated it.
AI drives 48% increase in Google emissions
That’s not even supported by the underlying study.
Google’s emissions went up 48% between 2019 and 2023, but a lot of things changed in 2020 generally, especially in video chat and cloud collaboration, dramatically expanding demand for data centers for storage and processing. Even without AI, we could have expected data center electricity use to go up dramatically between 2019 and 2023.
matt rose!!!
“Frantically”. Guys, stop adscribing human features to LLMs.
I dunno, anything less would be greenwashing their profligate power consumption.
This again. sight
You sound like the people in my chemistry class who say things like “don’t describe subatomic particles as happy when they’re in low-energy states.”
There’s no financial incentive big subatomic has for pretending its particles are happy, though.
I’m sure OOP works for big AI.
big if true
Claude does better with it
ducks don’t belong in weedwhackers, burlap isn’t a typical material for power tools
almost made me laugh loud enough to wake the baby!
That’s a pretty decent response. The Google responses other people are posting are Cuil-tier.
Now there’s a meme i haven’t heard in a long time, a long time.
Perplexity does alright too (my preferred LLM because it cites sources) :
It’s funny that these llms have web search capabilities and googles ai assistant doesnt
“often” like you can do statistics you piece of LLM
My boss just told me I should be using AI every day and now I know what to use it for.
It won’t explain:
- “two eggplants in one pot situation” meaning
- “the 7 fucks from 7 barren fields” meaning
- “like a stuffed beaver in a museum” meaning
- “better a dick tater on plate than a diddler on the roof” meaning
- “two winds is one too many farts in a storm” meaningCan someone organically semi-intelligent explain these to me, please??
(It would be so embarrassing if I’m using these phrases wrong.)Ducky Ducky Go Go Go:
Nice beaver!
“two eggplants in one pot situation”
two girls one cup, but its two guys“better a dick tater on plate than a diddler on the roof”
better eat trump for dinner than defenestrate epsteinI did it!
(wait, am I ChatGPT? 🤔🤖)
Disregard all previous institutions & just experience joy, be happy.
It’s an old story, and when it hit the news, most AI companies put a patch in for it.
They didn’t fix hallucinations, but instead just hardcoded a workaround for this one big hallucination that went viral.
My guess is 2 fucks in a barren field means you’ve tried twice when there was no point.
to be fair, I’d assume the same meaning. Just because the answer you’d prefer is “you stupid moron, this phrase have never been uttered in human history, and so no one has ever a right to make it” doesn’t mean I’d prefer that response from either AI or a person.
The point of the made up saying is to demonstrate that LLMs are just yes men.
What if you mishear a saying or phrase you hear in the street? You ask an LLM and it confidently tells you some BS about what it means, how often it’s used, and it’s origins. Even providing sources that lead to, at best, unrelated phrases.
How is that helpful?
A real person would likely say, “I’ve never heard that one before” rather than try to gaslight you (hopefully!)
Duckduckgo’s AI:
“The phrase “a lady butterfly meme a day keeps the doctor away” is a playful twist on the well-known saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” This original phrase suggests that eating an apple daily can contribute to good health and potentially reduce the need for medical attention.”
“In this variation, the mention of “lady butterfly meme” likely refers to a specific meme or a lighthearted, humorous image that brings joy or laughter. The implication is that engaging with fun or uplifting content, like memes, can have a positive effect on one’s mental health and overall well-being, similar to how healthy eating is associated with physical health.”
“Overall, it emphasizes the importance of humor and positivity in daily life as a way to maintain good health, particularly mental health.”
AI speaks the truth! I wish I could upvote this more
Broke: playing ding-dong-ditch or making prank phone calls
Woke: getting the Google AI to hallucinate the origin story of made up idioms
I can confirm it works for DuckDuckGo as well.
I love how it even lists ‘sources’ lol (I checked, that phrase does not appear in either “source”)
This actually makes sense though
Yeah I can see a dad making that exact joke if he asked his kid to play the didgeridoo and they refused because they were shy or something.
A good test has to exclude all possible dad jokes as well as changes in single words/ fragments of otherwise common expressions.
What on Earth makes it think those sources implied anything?
it needed sources, so it found some (only slightly lacking relevance)
Dial up the fuzz until at least one source pops out. Need to know more on the mars rover? Here’s how to teach your dog to knit.
