Teen boys are using ChatGPT as their wingman. What could go wrong? AI is teaching teenagers about love now.

  At least it isn’t sexually abusing them like grok

  It is still absolutely insane to me that people have conversations with these LLMs.

  I will never understand

    I don’t understand either. Part of it is because I grew up playing games so the fascade of intelligenc and self awareness fell apart for me quickly.

    You’d think newer generations would be less fooled by it, but maybe it is due to a shift from story driven games to more live service sandboxes that led to less encounters with NPCs and their scripted conversations.

    Wait till ppl casually mentioning their romantic AI partner during daily conversation. Based on how reliant younger generation is in the chatbots, I can see it becoming norm in a few decades or shorter.

    Yes I’m aware of such articles exist. I’m talking about the future which that becomes normal and hearing about it from your circle.

  So, it’s been decades since I was a teenager, and AI chatbots weren’t even a thing. Hell, I didn’t even have the internet as a teenager, so maybe I’m totally out of the loop, but someone riddle me this?..

  They’re age checking and gatekeeping social media, but not age checking and gatekeeping AI chatbots?

  Do I have this about right, or am I missing something here?

    Correct, because it’s important that only large corps with access to resources to create widely used LLMs have unfettered access to the minds of our populace in a completely open way. Random humans being able toaccess and exchange information adhoc, independently without prior approval is of course incompatible with the first amendment.

      I heard somewhere that zombies eat brains…

      So, is Artificial Intelligence actually the zombies, coming after the children’s minds? 🤔

  Is it terrible that I’d like to see an LLM trained exclusively on translated shoujo manga trying to give teen boys advice about this?

  Thank fuck I grew up in an era before these things and the Internet. Today’s kids never stood a chance.

  Worse, they’ve grown up on a steady diet of media telling them that “if you say the wrong thing” to a girl, “she’s going to accuse you of something,”

  There’s a big problem with the premise of this argument.

  The article accepts this “steady diet of media” as fact, but implies that it only affects “guys”.

  If there is, indeed, a “steady diet of media” saying this to a guy, then that same “steady diet of media” is saying the same thing to a girl: “If a guy says something wrong, it is reasonable for a girl to accuse him of something”. Girls are hearing the exact same message that guys are hearing.

  If that “steady diet” actually exists, then the guy’s concerns of accusations are valid, and he should be praised for ensuring he doesn’t “say the wrong thing”.

    The difference: We pretend to care about girls. We don’t pretend to care about boys.

  If there’s one thing the internet is never wrong about it’s women, I’m sure the collective dating, sex and relationship knowledge of the hivemind that was fed into these things is ace lmao.

    TBH Grok would probably tell them to avoid femoids and work on semen retention to activate their redpill powers.

      Grok: It isn’t rape if she doesn’t fight back.

  Probably a better parent than most nowadays.

    My wife is a social worker. She deals with a lot of parents who absolutely should never have been, but now have a kid and need constant help to avoid abusing them – intentionally or otherwise – physically, emotionally, sexually.

    I honestly believe The Thunderhead will be better than at least half of parents. Humanity will improve as a result. Almost no kid will be ever be told again pontblank they are a piece of shit that their parents never wanted.

    Look, it was a miracle I got myself laid, now you want me to tell you how? I don’t know, the 80’s were kinda crazy wild. Not like the 60’s or 70’s, but nothing at all like today.

    10’s I’d say go play with the home team — gay hookup culture looked crazy from the outside — but now? Maybe AI can get you laid, but I sure as hell can’t.
