Our AI future You never see this in the history documentaries. https://t.co/pTkGTGE2hY pic.twitter.com/jF0fUuPLcz— Cody (@AltHistCody) April 11, 2024
That news presenter is weird... She looks real enough to be a photoshopped model and even blinks her eyes at a normal rate. But she is otherwise motionless and she isn't speaking in sentences like a real person would. It's like an incel's dream woman
For those who are unaware, Google rolled out an integrated AI into their search engine. How good is it?
I got my first AI result when doing a Google search today. It was unimpressive. I was looking up the laws of the game to determine if there are separate rules for the goalie inside or outside the six yard box. (Related to the Portland - San Jose game last night - for example, and this is totally hypothetical, if the San Jose keeper is in the penalty area but not in the six yard box, can the Portland attacker just absolutely crush him on a 50/50 ball as long as he gets a toe on the ball first? And then get a penalty kick from the extremely bad ref? It's a hypothetical but some people were speculating that if the collision took place outside the six yard box, it was a legal challenge, as if the six yard box is some kind of magical wonderland where the keeper is protected but the rest of the field is just open ********ing season on the goalie as long as you touch the ball first.) The actual answer per the laws of the game is, no, the six yard box is just for goal kicks, a goal kick has to start inside or on the edge of the six yard box. But one of the AI answers was "opposing players can't set foot in the six yard box". dude wtf bro? There was a feedback button where I could flag that answer as factually incorrect, but I couldn't find the button that said "never give me AI answers again in the future you ******** ******** ******** ******** ******** ********".
Does AI include tictoc and influencers and conspiracy mongers and evangelist christians proof the world is 6000 years old in it's search on the internet for answers?
Bing was famous for being the first search engine with AI. But it kind of keeps it in its own place, and you can ignore it if you want and I always do. Other search engines are a step down in terms of quality of responses. AI searches are far more equipment and energy intensive than regular searching. Doesn't seem wise to switch
They supposedly weed those things out, but it doesn't seem easy and who knows how successful they are. You can try to find out. I have yet to ask a modern AI a direct question and I don't plan to start anytime soon.
I was going to say that maybe these AI search results are because the old fashioned way of having a buttload of machines that go out to all the websites, index their contents and sort the results so they come up when people use appropriate search terms, was too expensive, but the new AI system of having even more machines that go out to all the websites, index the contents and then make things up about them, is significantly more expensive.
There are some things that are beneficial with Google Search. One if them is image searching. That said, I regularly use DuckDuckGo on my desktop, and do so always on my phone.
Yes, but I mean they try to weed out the crazy stuff like the flat Earthers. But that's not easy to do.
When I heard about it, my thought is that A) it will fail with sarcasm; B) people will very quickly figure out how to beat the AI.
So Google decided to get rid of their very successful search business model to replace it with AI. Let's see how that's going:
Hope you don't mind but I re posted this in the Ref forum! They need some laughs to recover from the VAR debacle!
Yup. I caught a story along those lines, something about how slavery wasn't terrible, or something terrible like that.
Here is some good stuff. https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-...gles-ai-search-is-mocked-for-bizarre-answers/ And I think the thing I was thinking about the "muslim President" one, not a slavery question.
