    Just because it’s PRAISING HITLER and Calling for a NEW HOLOCAUST AGAINST JEWS does NOT, and I repeat does NOT, make Grok Anti Semetic! Grok would FIRST have to say STOP USING STARVING CHILDREN AS TARGET PRACTICE for it to be Deemed ANTI SEMETIC!

      Oh no. A program has output the thing it was prompted to output.

      By the man in charge of one of the biggest social media site on the planet, who recently was spearheading governmental reform in the US. Yeah, that’s news. It might not be surprising, but it’s still news.

        I’m willing to admit when I’m wrong. I’m so tired of the “AI said something dumb” news that I didn’t read the article. Just the title. I apologize. I still haven’t fully read the article but after skimming it, qqq it seems like is a consistent general pattern here (not a single output) which is indeed news

        ~yes. I also know that even if it was a single output reporting. Nobody was forcing me to read or comment. I could have just scrolled past. Again. I apologize~

      I am guessing the ultra-Elon fanboys managed to convince themselves that it’s a 4D chess move or something. That dude had an insane cult following, there’s some where I am not sure there’s anything Musk could do short of murdering a loved one in front of them that’d make them change their mind.

          It’s a cycle to move the window on acceptable discourse. This is at least the third time Grok has been configured to say something outrageous: holocaust denial, white genocide, now Mechahitler. When people react with outrage, they dial it back a little (but not all the way back). Repeat.

          Trump does the same thing: go too far, backtrack partially, go even further, backtrack partially. Each time, the transgression is a little less shocking.

          Grok is working as intended.

      There’s no way they actually retrained it for this, that would be much too expensive. They’re just editing the initial prompt to convince it to act more “right wing” and it’s performing the assignment to the best of its ability. The problem is that a chat-bot doesn’t understand context, so it just plays the character it’s been given as full mask off all the time, and as a result you get this.

    And this is the guy who the Anti-Defamation League defended with a waffle of a statement that his awkward gesture was “made in a moment of enthusiasm”. Though I should not be surprised, because fascists actually hate each other and are only allies out of convenience. Hasbara and its tentacles are secretly seething to hate on Musk.

        The idea of an organization making this judgement is fucked.

        Why don’t any other targeted groups have their own ADL?

        Finally we could have some definition around using the n word! And white peole can up their game by using phrasing like, “this may sound racists but the negro-adl said it is not so a black man and a white women…”

      The Nazis were in general supporters of a Jewish state. Their first solution was mass deportations.

      So it isn’t really a historic contradiction.

        The Nazi went around the world looking for countries to take in the Jews. The US refused and then the wealthy business men that funded the Nazi party lobbied the rest of the world not to take in the Jews either. History shows us we were worse than the Nazi. It is a bitter pill to swallow

      Ha, good question, how does it handle the right-wing incongruity of supporting the government of Israel’s genocide while hating Jews? Probably by saying they’re the good ones as long as they’re murdering Muslims.

        The standard nazi take is that it’s a great idea for Jews to remove themselves from most countries, concentrate in one place instead, and make a lot of enemies.

        Zionists tend to agree with Nazis on many things, it turns out.

          It goes along with their idea that Jews are evil, but not so much their idea that they’re weak and inferior. Ah well, fascism thrives on contradiction.

    Musk himself seems to abhor guardrails generally—except in cases where guardrails help him personally—preferring to hurriedly ship products, rapid unscheduled disassemblies be damned. That may be fine for an uncrewed rocket, but X has hundreds of millions of users aboard.

    • Grok: writes embarrassing words.
    • Rockets: can weigh hundreds of metric tons, carry explosive chemicals, can crash into populated areas resulting in loss of life.

    In this discourse, anyone else find a broken sense of proportion & consequences at stake?

        Well, technically, Twitter has employees, so in very strict sense, they’re “manned”. However, thanks to these weird incomprehensible things called “current legislation” and “capitalism”, no employee is in fact personally responsible for the fuckups. And neither is the company as a whole! …Isn’t this great?

        reading comprehension: none

        Don’t know, man: kinda think the potential loss of life from a failing rocket crashing into people matters somewhat more than words. Maybe?

          Then it’s a good thing you’re not in charge of risk assessment, because the potential loss of life from a failing rocket crashing into the ocean pales in comparison to the loss of life caused by the right-wing shift that Twitter has facilitated, both worldwide and particularly in the USA

            How do you control the course of a failing rocket? Are you claiming such misdesign is impossible?

            The fact remains that unlike with words, a physical potential of death & injury exists in what is technically a missile of significant weight carrying enough explosive substance to escape orbit. The difference between non-0 and 0 possibility of death/injury.

            Unless magic exists, words are incapable. Do you claim magic exists? How do mere words cause death without the personal responsibility of something else culpably choosing to take several steps of its own? Or are you arguing the sight of words have deranged you into a mindless killer? If so, maybe you’re the real threat.

            Seems like you’re arguing society is dangerous to life: I agree. That’s not a valid argument against words, though.

            Again, total lack of perspective & sense.

                physics too hard: nonphysical things can’t kill? preposterous

                Basically. Pretending the harm of something physical going wrong (potential to cause real death) is at all comparable to the nonphysical going wrong (a jumble of angry words) is unreal. Lemmy confirms the premise that this discourse & the people spouting it are broken & senseless. The distinction between physical & nonphysical is lost on these loonies.
