somewhere out there, there’s a writer who really likes the em dash, the word “delve,” and answering questions with a one-word hyper-chipper affirmative, followed by three sentences of people pleasing. He can’t get a job because he keeps being accused of using AI

Didn’t know it was something readable! I just know it as an episode of Love Death + Robots. It was a standout episode in an otherwise pretty boring first two seasons.

kinda related but wouldn’t it be fun to believe that LLMs were invented by Big Em Dash as a conspiracy

Ok so in arabic it’s exactly how this guy wants it

reminded me of this

Gonna take a wild guess that enough people have tried this joke to the point where they’ve added custom code or lines in the system prompt about it:

with like 15 links for context/back references, this is basically impenetrable. splendid find

ahhh the younger cousin to https://xcancel.com/internetofshit

Fortunately, we do not work in physical proximity!

Text conversation that keeps happening with coworker:

Coworker: <information dump>

Me: <not reading any of that> what’s the source for that?

Coworker: Oh I got Copilot to summarise these links: <links>, saves me the time of typing

Saw this, was going to post this a literal minute before you did but stared into this abyss a little too long.

Here’s what the abyss revealed:

• Guy is fucking stupid
• Guy is fucking stupid, hence the AI use
• Guy is fucking stupid, AI accidentally his whole database and he is still an AI glazer

Can’t wait to see this guy just use a different but same tool to delete his shit again, and learn nothing

hey!!! buddy!!! no spoilers!!!

Trying to “break” an AI into revealing secret information is the closest you can get to being in a real life Mission Impossible situation.

this never happens in the mission impossible series, and there’s plenty of fun stuff you can do to get close, e.g.:

• Holiday internationally
• Abseil
• Practice close up magic/sleight of hand
• Go bouldering
• Exist with the overarching threat of a widespread pandemic
• Get married in a hospital chapel
• Disavow a US three letter agency
• Move to london

the list goes on dawg. Just be more creative

hey, props to the author for writing all that. This is my version:

So You Think You’ve Awoken ChatGPT

Unfortunately, you are stupid beyond remedy. If you can read this, I pity you.

Tangential: I’ve heard that there are 3D printer people that print junk and sell them. This would not be much of a problem if they didn’t pollute the spaces they operate in. The example I’ve heard of is artist alleys at conventions- a 3D printer person will set up a stall and sell plastic models of dragons or pokemon or whatever. Everything is terrible!

What’s your P(that question has been asked at a US three letter agency)

Please link original source I didn’t see any comments linking it please

maybe there should be some kind of scoring system

If we start doing Awful Gold^TM I will die a little inside

dear gods how does one type that with a straight face and not pass out from sheer intellectual exertion

Yeah. One thing I’ve realised since participating in Sneerclub is that when someone comes in thinking it’s debate club and 1. starts saying shit, and 2. you start coming up with counterarguments, and 3. you realise everything you come up with is just first order, basic stuff, then you have to remind yourself that this isn’t debate club, and that this person is stupid, and you don’t owe them intellectual energy.

In this case, in the broadest sense, politics is about getting a bunch of people to do something they might not initially agree with. Guess what a moral framework is designed to do?? Especially utilitarianism, which is literally just economics and accounting with a moral/ethical veneer. And that’s just first order shit!!! It’s not hard to go up the ladder from base theory to reality and come up with all kinds of examples and counterarguments or what have you. It’s just a waste of time with these people! They are either stupid or intentionally ignorant or both.

So yeah sometimes I’m ankle deep in drafting something offsite when I remember “it’s sneer club” and then I stop myself. You won’t convince these people, so just clown on them.
