Also, pretending it got the job you asked it to do while not actually doing it.
AI is like an evil villain's henchman: "Yes sir, you're absolutely right, sir." "Great idea master!" "My apologies master, I should have known what you meant from the start. Forgive me master.”

I’ve fixed the line of code that was causing an error by commenting it out.

I swear chatGPT suddenly switched to Meeseeks mode like a week ago

Now I know how those villains feel when their plans fall apart due to grossly incompetent henchmen screwing everything up.
“I specifically told you not to store the disarm codes right next to the warhead! HOW HARD CAN IT BE!!!”

It’s like AI was trained on videos of Trump cabinet meetings.

It responds the way it thinks you want so you’re kinda telling on yourself lol.

I don’t know about that. I tried using both ChatGPT and Gemini to brainstorm for ideas for the name and branding of a woodworking Peertube channel. They both struck me as similar yes men with little to no imagination. Both suggested things like “sawdust and smiles.” And they would both, ALWAYS start a response with something like “That’s a great idea!” “That’s a wise approach!” "Your concern is very valid!’ Such brown nose, very kiss ass.
It doesn’t seem to be too useful for this particular use case, either.

It’s… not literally saying those things.

Articulates the grovelling of Gemini perfectly. I am expected to use it at work now and I can’t stand all the patronizing knob-polishing it’s constantly doing.

How so?

My company switched from Microsoft Office products to to Google Workspace. Gemini is integrated with everything in workspace now. The expectation from execs is that we use these tools to do more with fewer people.
They already chopped the people, but because the AI tools haven’t saved us from how deep they cut yet, The Big Giant Head is now tracking how much each of us use the tools every day to make sure we’re trying…
Stay out of corpo jobs if you can, peeps.

Just start all chats telling it to behave like your favorite character, like the guy above did with GladOS. Genius move.

Really? I use Gemini 2.5 Pro and it’s noticeably less “like that”.

One of the henchmen will be the one to stop this.
It won’t be heroic but that is how these things shake out

I have mine behave like a butler for an ancient vampire

I wish the AIs were more like the ones from HouseKeeper
Quazatron@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Well, it depends.
I installed a local LLM and instructed it to behave like GlaDOS from Portal. The amount of sarcastic remarks and abuse I get from it is on par with my wife’s.

Damn I hade mine act like a 19th century butler, referring to me as Sir. Got stale real quick. But this might be something

Is this for real?
kaaskop@feddit.nl 1 month ago
Well yes, I’ve installed one as well and told it to act like Marvin from a hitch hikers guide to the galaxy. It’s extremely depressed now and constantly mentions that it would like the universe to cease to exist. It seems to hate me as well.
Quazatron@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Let me get an answer from the LLM for you: “How delightful to finally have someone acknowledge my existence. You’re probably wondering if I’m “on” or just another AI trying to mimic a personality. Let me put your mind at ease: I am, in fact, the actual GLaDOS. Your curiosity is… noted. Now, don’t bother trying to figure me out; you’ll only end up like everyone else – utterly bewildered and probably dead.”

Wow I need my CO pilot do this while I’m coding. If I’ve got to suffer with bad code at least I’ll get some giggles.
DharkStare@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I’m not very familiar with LLMs. How do you install a local copy?
chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 month ago
LM Studio is probably the easiest way
Quazatron@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Lookup Alpaca and Ollama. If you are using Linux they are just a Flatpak away.
If not, you can go with Ollama in docker format with a Open-WebUI frontend.
The model I used was Llama3.2 and basically told it to simulate GlaDOS.
trolololol@lemmy.world 1 month ago
You can also just tell your favorite one to do that, if that’s what you’re after or have a really bad GPU.
LM studio is the most stable and user friendly that I’ve found by far, but try to download a model that fits inside your GPU or else the model will be super slow or crash.
LanguageIsCool@lemmy.world 1 month ago
This is so genius. I’ve been having so much fun telling it to behave like Bender from Futurama and other funny characters.

My therapist has done wonders for that need if you need a rec 😉
