Pretty sure you can sue the ai company

Pretty sure its in the Tos it can’t be used for therapy.

It used to be even worse. Older version of chatgpt would simply refuse to continue the conversation on the mention of suicide.

The article doesn't seem to specify whether Pedro had earned the treat for himself? I don't see the harm in a little self-care/occasional treat?

And thus the flaw in AI is revealed.

Anytime an article posts shit like this but neglects to include the full context, it reminds me how bad journalism is today if you can even call it that

If I try, not even that hard, I can get gpt to state Hitler was a cool guy and was doing the right thing.

ChatGPT isn't anything in specific other than a token predictor, you can literally make it say anything you want if you know how, it's not hard.

So if you wrote an article about how "gpt said this" or "gpt said that" you better include the full context or I'll assume you are 100% bullshit

But meth is only for Saturdays. Or Tuesdays. Or days with "y" in them.

This slightly diminishes my fears about the dangers of AI. If they're obviously wrong a lot of the time, in the long run they'll do less damage than they could by being subtly wrong and slightly biased most of the time.

The problem is there are morons that do what these spicy text predictors spit out at them.

I'm mean sure they'll still kill a few people along the way, but they're not going to contribute as much to the downfall of all civilization as they might if they weren't constantly revealing their utter mindlessness. Even as it is smart people can be fooled, at least temporarily, into thinking that LLMs understand things and are reliable partners in life.
