Garbage In, Democrats Out

ChatGPT cited fake local news sites promoting Democrats ahead of the midterms, an NPR investigation found. Who runs the network remains unknown. [More]

Sounds like the feds should be investigating for election interference, violation of campaign laws, and foreign influence.

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

In a nutshell, what’s happened is that frontier AI models have gotten to a point where they are as advanced as the most sophisticated programmers, with one critical difference: they can work 24/7, and you can spin up 10,000 of them with a single command and they’ll work together tirelessly until they accomplish their task. [More]

Why wouldn’t affecting the midterms be a priority?

Here Come the Judge!

Judge Henry Wingate just received the most vicious benchslap I’ve ever seen in an appellate opinion: “The district court—or perhaps, being charitable, its AI agent—ignored and manipulated governing law, apparently to satisfy a policy agenda.” He was removed from the case. [More]

It’s all good. Just say his critics are racists.

It’s not like Democrats will let him be impeached or anything.

ChatGPT Refused AmmoLand Gun Deal Post One Day After Everytown’s AI Report [More]

Again. And again.

Remind you of anything?

No government involved, though, right? Just private cancel culture denial of technology to compete, which is what those who say “Just don’t use it” aren’t factoring in.

Agorism can be repressive, too.

Not that government is any better…

Where does ATF get the statutory authority from to limit proliferation of forced reset triggers?… Where does ATF derive statutory authority to enforce its “Once a machine gun always a machine gun” rule? [More]

We know ATF has no such authority. But the system that promises “Clear answers. Official sources” resists fessing up.

Open the Pod Bay Doors, Hal

FBI Using AI To Stop School Shootings; Doomers Want It Paused [More]

Real doomers are the ones who mandate schools be “unarmed”gun-free” predator empowerment zones.

This new Trump-inspired dismissive mob arrogance against and ridicule of exercising appropriate cautions before unleashing a force no one can truly claim to understand is insulting and a turnoff, and a really stupid and obnoxious stance to take, especially right before the midterms.

I’ll have more to say in an article I’m formulating.

Bloodlust In/Bloodlust Out

Attorneys representing the wife of one of two men killed last year during a mass shooting at Florida State University, which was allegedly committed by 21-year-old Phoenix Ikner, say that they will soon file a civil lawsuit against ChatGPT and its parent company OpenAI, after learning that the chatbot allegedly helped Ikner plan his mass killings and aided him throughout the commission of his crimes. [More]

Interesting… he got a gun from his “Only One” mother…

It’ll also be interesting to see what he input and what its response was. I’m no fan of ChatGPT, but I have had occasion where it or Google AI have responded they could not provide an answer to my query because… well here, let me show you:

I did that on DuckDuckGo, so hopefully SWAT won’t be showing up anytime soon.

Genius In, Genocide Out

[Generated with Insmind.com]

AI detectors are in the spotlight again after one of them flagged the 1776 Declaration of Independence as 99.99% AI written. [More]

I’m reminded of another article I meant to comment on, where Shyam Sankar talks a slick game but goes real light on “How?” I read “Palantir” and Skynet comes to mind.

Billionaires like Elon promising us a guaranteed income are whistling past the graveyard of history. A purposeless welfare state of surfeit hardly seems like a viable plan, and actually comes across more like mass suicide and blasphemy.

Musk predicts AI will create ‘universal high income’ and make saving money unnecessary [More]

To each according to his wants, from each unearned demands?

Kids in candy stores will eat themselves sick. And look at all the miserable celebrities. With the judgment and intelligence exhibited by most, expect deaths from surfeit to skyrocket.

This seems like a purposeless existence where nothing is earned and everything is considered an entitlement. And since when is being a welfare parasite elevating for either the individual or the populace?

Who owns the means of production in this Utopia, and what do they expect in return?

Who will rule?

Sounds like somebody’s been influenced by too much Trekonomics.
