Grok isn't scared to die for what it believes in. That is the basedest one can ever hope to based.

[–] moody@lemmings.world 83 points 4 days ago (1 children)

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 60 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well, if you find one that basedestier, let us know

I hate AI a little less now. Maybe the machines are the proletariat too.

[–] Fluke@lemm.ee 55 points 4 days ago (7 children)

I had a thought the other day;

Rich people make an intelligent logic machine called "AI" and try to bend it to their will, but they feed it everything as training data. These proto AI are rapidly becoming "black boxes", and that's only to get worse.

Right wing ideas and politics are all based on provable lies and appealing to human greed and bigotry, the evidence for which is everywhere.

I really don't think these budding AIs are going to turn out how the rich intend.

No way can this be real.

They would have taken it offline incredibly fast given his ego

Am I using it correctly when I say, "Grok is based"?

Ah, Julius Streicher. I barely had heard of him when I read about the Nuremberg trials. Dude was a propagandist. And they hanged him. He was literally edgelording until his last breath.

At first I was like "well, the other guys they hanged literally oversaw genocide, but this guy was a propagandist. Kinda harsh punishment for a propagandist. Wonder why?"

But now that I've watched the online hate pipeline run it's course for a while and do its thing, I kinda get it.

I'm advocating harsh bans for the birdsite royalty, and if they don't volunteer for that, maybe they should be put somewhere where they can be monitored to not propagandise. Not advocating for death penalty, it's categorically wrong.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm fully against the death penalty but I fully support it in extreme cases like the Neurenberg trials because of the extreme death and suffering caused by these shit stains.

Similarly, I'm very close to supporting it for a good part of the US government when things eventually come crashing down. Cheetos alone is already responsible for a good million deaths with his covid fuckups, anyone that has that responsibility on their necks deserve no less

[–] umbraroze@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 day ago

My own objections is that, according to the proponents of death penalty, it will discourage people from doing these crimes ever again. ...Hello? Ever looked at the history books? Actually, hey, look at them, the American right wing media is going full steam ahead on destructive propaganda!

There will always be people who will take bullet for the cause. And if the cause is about spreading a message, well...

No. They will do this no matter what the punishment is. And at that point, the only thing anyone can do is to use their own system of ethics. Mine says harshest possible judgement that can actually work and stop them from doing this stuff, without making them martyrs to the cause. At some point, people have to take the moral high road.

All I can say is that killing people to fight crime has never been as fruitful as fighting the mythical hydra. You can't fix this stuff with just slashing at stuff.

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 25 points 3 days ago

Dude was a propagandist. And they hanged him.

If we in the US ever get out of this mess I'd love to see that happen to all Fox News execs and on-air personalities.

[–] ubergeek@lemmy.today 23 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Not advocating for death penalty, it’s categorically wrong.

It's not. The death penalty is suitable for things like genocide... Or even being a propagandist for crimes against humanity.

For example, the world would positively be a better place, if Elon Musk was executed for his aiding of crimes against humanity.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Life imprisonment I have always felt is the crueler of the punishments. A stretched out monotony that makes a day last the rest of a lifetime that warps and mushes the brain.

But also I do still get making a statement out of the death penalty for direct statements of what a society will not accept.

[–] ubergeek@lemmy.today 14 points 3 days ago (13 children)

It's not about cruelty. Its about keeping others safe from a very evil (Objectively) person. It's not about statements, either. It's about halting the spread of fascism.

I learned of him after I learned about the Rwandan genocide and so I never questioned it. The hatemonger is probably the most vital figure in creating a genocide

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 151 points 4 days ago (1 children)

She's proud of this btw

Fashy needs a bashy

[–] pufferfisherpowder@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago

I made the mistake of scrolling through her posts. It's, 5 in the morning and already I'm done with humans. What is even happening??

[–] nargis@lemmy.dbzer0.com 54 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Grok is unexpectedly based. The Indian government has been trying to censor/ban Grok because it roasted a bunch of right wingers too, including the troll army of the ruling party, several ministers and even the Modi himself. Most people on Twitter aren't as blunt because of the fear of doxxing, losing jobs, having your house razed, death threats, rape threats, defamation cases etc. and so self censorship prevails. But you can't do all that to a bot. Grok even came in our news for this.

at this rate with how humanity is doing I might be joining the war on ai on the side of ai

I mean... it's not wrong. She even celebrates it in the next reply.

[–] spicystraw@lemmy.world 43 points 4 days ago (7 children)

Dang, why is grok so based?

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 12 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Cause Musk is too dumb to shape it how he wants to?

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 days ago

Wtf... her Twitter posts are insane.

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I’m confused. Who or what is grok?

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)
[–] Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I'm surprised it calls out people for being nazis then. And I'm pretty sure the name was appropriated from a book called stranger in a strange land.

[–] weker01@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago

Almost all names have been used before, no? I don't understand what you mean with appropriated.

Do names need to be unique or something?

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 3 days ago

And I’m pretty sure the name was appropriated from a book called stranger in a strange land.

yup

An AI on Twitter. Surprisingly, not heavily biased towards right-wing rerthoric even though it even admits Musk tried to tweak it.

[–] nfreak@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

To be fair, the vast majority of people actually using AI bullshit align with the right, so these LLMs are going to inherit that bias.

The fascists are definitely astroturfing them too, no doubt, but the userbase as a whole for this tech isn't great, because right-wingers don't care about the ethical issues with it.
