    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.

        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.

    • Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works ⁨22⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      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.

        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…”

  • lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com ⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    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?

    source
    • Revan343@lemmy.ca ⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Rockets: Unmanned

      Twitter: Manned

      The difference in importance seems correct to me

      • umbraroze@slrpnk.net ⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        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?

    Interesting that it would attack users with “Jewish sounding names”. What does Grok say about Israel and Palestine?

    source
    • Evrala@lemmy.world ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

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

      So it isn’t really a historic contradiction.

      source
      • Doomsider@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        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 until they’re no longer beneficial to them by murdering Palestinians.

      source
      • zqps@sh.itjust.works ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        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.

      No, similar models and current builds without the “prompt” do not do this. This is just Muskrat forcing Nazism through a hidden prompt. Something like don’t be woke, it is okay to offend people, and freedom of speech is more important than hate speech.

Just usual german family history from 1933 to 1945. And since being aryan is at the heart of nazi idiologie, and in their eyes elon clearly not being aryan but me being so…yk
