Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

MODERATORS
dam google is really expanding the width of the snake right now
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.
"Frantically". Guys, stop adscribing human features to LLMs.
I dunno, anything less would be greenwashing their profligate power consumption.
This again. sight
It would be great to provide a context too, since neither the title of the article is exhaustive about the content.
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
My boss just told me I should be using AI every day and now I know what to use it for.
Honestly, this is great for a little spontaneous chuckle
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
I can confirm it works for DuckDuckGo as well.
I love how it even lists 'sources' (I checked, that phrase does not appear in either "source")
Edit: To make this phenomenon even funnier, I just asked it the exact same question and it gave me a different answer this time. Still "playful" though :)
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.

Sounds like lyrics that were cut from Bo Burnham's Welcome to the Internet
"often" like you can do statistics you piece of LLM

Here's the custom filter for uBlock origin that hides this useless feature
Out of sight out of mind
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!)
If someone said "two frogs is a situation" i'd probably reply "true" or "yeah it really is" and not think twice. I like that phrase so much I might add it to my vocab same with 'expanding the width of the snake'
