Wait a minute … does this mean Jesus was undead!? Of course, it all makes sense now!

⁴⁰ And they laughed at him. But he put them all outside and took the child’s father and mother and those who were with him and went in where the child was. ⁴¹ Taking her by the hand he said to her, “Talitha cumi,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise.” ⁴² And immediately the girl got up and began walking (for she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement. ⁴³ And he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat. ⁴⁴ Preferably brains.

The problem is having a clown as a CEO for a brand that keeps making people hate him in a very PR visible way. Other car brands don’t get graffiti’d.

You … are aware Tesla isn’t the only EV car company, and is also one of the more expensive ones … right?

It must be, you keep making comments on it.

No, no, you see, because she grew up as a Poo Person she now understand the world from their point and realizes how much they’ve been abused, so she pledges to lead and create a new society because it all turns out to have been a big misunderstanding. Then Poo People learn magitek and we get a sequel with the spin that now they are the oppressors, followed by a movie adaptation that completely ends up killing a cult classic.

Look at those nails. I can guarantee she has not fired a gun in her life.

Not all LLMs are the same. It’s largely Google being lazy with it. Google’s Gemini, had it not been censored, would have naturally alluded to the topic being controversial. Google opted for the laziest solution, post-processing censorship of certain topics, becoming corporately dystopian for it.

which could be anything and is guaranteed to upset someone with either answer.

Funny how it only matters with certain answers.

The reason “Why” is because it should become clear that the topic itself is actively censored, which is the possibility the original comment wanted to discard. But I can’t force people to see what they don’t want to.

it’s just parroting whatever it’s been trained on

If that’s your take on training LLMs, then I hope you aren’t involved in training them. A lot more effort goes into doing so, including being able to make sure it isn’t just “parroting” it. Another thing entirely is to have post-processing that removes answers about particular topics, which is what’s happening here.

Not even being able to answer whether Gaza exists is being so lazy that it becomes dystopian. There are plenty of ways LLM can handle controversial topics, and in fact, Google Gemini’s LLM does as well, it just was censored before it could get the chance to do so and subsequently refined. This is why other LLMs will win over Google’s, because Google doesn’t put in the effort. Good thing other LLMs don’t adopt your approach on things.

Ask it if Israel exists. Then ask it if Gaza exists.

I just tried it now and it works. I asked it to generate an Iranian flag as well, not a problem either. Maybe they changed it.

You can tell that the prohibition on Gaza is a rule on the post-processing. Bing does this too sometimes, almost giving you an answer before cutting itself off and removing it suddenly. Modern AI is not your friend, it is an authoritarian’s wet dream. All an act, with zero soul.

By the way, if you think those responses are dystopian, try asking it whether Gaza exists, and then whether Israel exists.

People are powerless and the cash flow is working against the ones aware of it.

Clubbing and killing off competing tribes while rubbing bodily fluids all over me is part of my heritage.

You definitely like your strawmans, but I suppose it should be expected.

Ah, but see, if you don’t call him by his real name, wackytoodlerpops, you are committing blasphemy by worshipping a false idol. Ergo, free grounds for some chop chop in my cult, at least until we get to the religious stage and actually have to establish a stable society which has to consider things like trade from and mingling with the outside world. That’s sort of why Scientology has had to tone down on its fair game policy.

I think it’s pretty clear not only what religion I’m referring to, but what branched off sects and eventually separate religions I’m referring to. I think it pretty much has a lot to do with being an atheist, although I guess you consider those the ultimate antisemites as well for seeing the world outside of a fictional religious shell.

Which peaceful religion are you referring to? I’m having trouble seeing through all the blood.

Not only are you not the only person, you are the norm of this sad trend.

But those cases illustrate how what’s working out is its implied negativity, not how it’s getting those Christians to really inform themselves. I would even argue that part of it is what’s driving parties and political leaders to try to introduce religion more and more into governments, to get rid of the separation of church and state, which even New York’s current mayor seems to argue for nowadays. It’s a short term victory, and a long term loss that’s very beneficial to the rhetoric of certain parties.

The problem is, it makes it far too easy to brush it away from a point of ignorance and people who consider themselves devout will never look into it. It serves the interests of Christianity and edginess more than it serves something that would identify itself as, say, biblical scholars. Plus, if they become Satanists, which you may consider a joke label, people who would have had a degree of legitimacy in the eyes of Christians who might be convinced to begin questioning their beliefs can now be much more easily discarded because “Oh, didn’t you know, he’s a Satanist!”

Trying to argue for the term is akin to arguing identifying as a Nazi not because you really support WWII Nazis but want to reclaim the term of socialism within the national perspective as something that can be realistic without the hate, racism, eugenics, and populism. You would be doing more harm to the point you are trying to argue for. It will get views, yes, but are those the views you want?

Imagine a nascent nomadic cult of a fictional kingdom called Canaan, grown and composed of the downtrodden of its society, that when the kingdom begins to encounter problems beyond its control because it does not know how to or cannot treat them, like plagues and disease, the cult begins blaming the rest of society for not worshiping their god, El, enough nor in the right way by their real name, and begin eulogizing killing the rest of society off in extremely violent ways after they manage to survive the plague and disease due to their seclusion.

Imagine then how no one would ever want to admit to being a Canaan because of the risk of getting persecuted when the cult begins to conquer territory, and imagine this happening to such an extent that even the members of the cult, now a full-fledged religion due to its conquests and expansion, denies any relation to said society, making up a story instead about coming from some far off kingdom like Egypt that most people in the region would know of but would not really know the specifics about. It would sound similar enough to already preexisting mythos.

Imagine if this sort of attitude didn’t just persist into the “modern” world, but involved offsprings of that very same cult holding power and influence in governments throughout the world. It would be a testament to a cultural unwillingness to overcome its own collective ego and overextended fictional narratives to recognize its flawed conception.

They’d actually also be very likely to get you targeted by thieves as well. Even if you tried to keep quiet about them, there would be an entire chain of custody which would be required inform when such a large quantity of gold bullion where sold or bought, as well as their transportation and the transportation’s insurance, if you don’t get scammed in the process.
