The Google AI isn’t hallucinating about glue in pizza, it’s just over indexing an 11 year old Reddit post by a dude named fucksmith.

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I have 3 equal theories on how this happened.
and yet if you actually read the very visible timestamp on the shared image, you'd see "11y ago", which would tell you fairly clearly what is what
pretty equal hypotheses indeed! you're a master cognician!
Bots have been around for a long time. I started Reddit in 2014 and bots were prolific.
Sure, but they were also much more primitive, mostly simple replies or copying other comments.
There were some really good ones. Most of us didn't realize what they were at first, myself included. They're a lot like what's here on Lemmy, we don't qualify for the live propaganda people and the good ones. NOT that I want them to show up, they are very, very good.
Sure very good ones, and not a 'use simple botting commands for simple answers, and as soon as you encounter something weird get a real human to react'
