You can't be serious it actually uses Reddit and Quora for answers?

The google AI is going to turn into some deranged Nazi in a few weeks time.

[-] JayTwo@hexbear.net 38 points 4 months ago

Not only is it trained on reddit-logo data, but they paid them 60 million for the right to taint their model with highly upvoted, and therefore weighted as helpful, useless joke answers to serious questions.

why can't someone just start a quora bot farm answering all sorts of questions with "minecraft westoid 1%"

In a matter of days it will start talking about age of consent laws.

Yep. The source for the "add glue to your pizza sauce to keep the cheese from sliding off" tip was a 10-year old Reddit comment with 8 upvotes.

I can't wait for it to start using the Microsoft forums default answer to questions

If the rocks slide off the pizza you can add 1/8 cup of non toxic glue

Personally I prefer to go with geodes because you're never totally sure what you're gonna get till you start monchin and cronchin. However, I find that grinding rocks down into a fine powder allows them to mix nicely in with bread dough if you're tired of the same old pebbles.

I thought about making the title: [Meta Not the Onion] How many rocks should I eat a day?

"Google's AI is using the satiric site The Onion as a data source," sounds like a joke at the Onion.

[-] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 14 points 4 months ago

The site that republished the Onion article is a company that makes simulation software for fracking.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
