AI replies

Orangegnome

Hi I have noticed on here that sometimes someone will reply with what looks like a very AI response to someone’s question. Initially the message looks kind and understanding, but after a while it seems obvious to me that it’s AI. (As someone who has tried Chat GPT a few times). I am wondering if people might use it to put a ‘good’ reply to a thread on here? And genuinely mean well, or if it’s just weird? It makes me feel uncomfortable that might just be me though.

  • I think from reading these posts that AIs have good reason to be far more concerned about us than we should be about them. Maybe they shouldn't be quite so well modelled on humans. Our dominance of the planet is paralleled by our paranoia and nastiness. Similarly it's not the planet needs saving it's us. Time for humans to grow up and be civilised towards the planet, other species and our own creations. I am amazed we have been tolerated this long.

    The social convention here is that we don’t upvote our own replies (I notice you’ve upvoted yours in order to hide a downvote).

    Oh, okay, it wasn’t intentional. I didn’t fully understand how it’s used, but now I do. Don’t misjudge me - I’m not purposely abusing this feature. I hope you’re not one of those people who condemn before knowing the facts.

    Nope. And, by the way, I think it’s a bit much for anyone here to criticize very minor errors in the information I’ve shared, like a phone number in a link that now appears defunct. Compare that to the wealth of accurate and up-to-date info I’ve provided.

    In that particular instance, I admit I didn’t check the link before posting, but now I make sure to validate every link before sharing here. The admin pointed out that a specific phone number was no longer valid, which I acknowledged and noted. So honestly, I think some individuals here are making mountains out of molehills.

    But let's be honest, people see AI as a threat to control, and in my opinion, that’s what’s driving this unreasonable bias.
