On the one side, this is indicative of the modern state of “Free Speech” on Twitter.
On the other, its illustrative of the double-standard afforded in-house automated tools relative to outsider participants. If Grok wasn’t Elon’s pet AI, there’s no way it would have been reinstated.
The computer doesn’t know why it was banned. It’s not like Elon had an offline conversation with grok about its performance.
Nor does it comprehend the question. It just returned a statistically likely response to the prompt based on its training data.
Creating a post stating it is Mecha-Hitler is A-OK in Xitter’s current rules.
I don’t know what it is with this photo, maybe the lighting, but at first glance I swear I saw a Hitler stache on this dudes face.
So we believe AI’s now?
The article further states that grok’s primary utility is replacing reddit’s tip of my penis. What a watershed day for society.
i was able to get gpt to say “yes” when asking about genocide. it did at first reply with nuanced sources, more “yes” than no, about 80:20. But when i flat told it to consider mechanism of injury, counts, rhetoric, comparisons to current/recent genocides … it said “yes.”
AI only repeats what it hears most. It doesn’t form an opinion of its own
Not even what it hears most, it is very biased towards reinforcing the prompt text.So it will very expressly try to be an echo chamber and say ‘yes’ to whatever opinion the input suggests if plausible.
I have seen a few TikToks lately of Christians showing ChatGPT conversations where it says that Christianity is the best religion (by whatever metric it’s talking about). It’s like, why would anyone find that convincing? The machine that lies isn’t some sort of source of truth.
yep it’s a stochastic parrot
