I’m not sure how this will go horribly wrong but I’m confident that it will: Wendy’s tests an chatbot that takes your drive-thru order - The Verge https://www.theverge.com/2023/5/9/23716825/wendys-ai-drive-thru-google-llm

It's not unusual to have to answer a reCAPTCHA to prove to a website that you're human. But that's kind of one-sided.

Some websites are so automated now that maybe the website should have to fill out some kind of corporate reCAPTCHA to prove that there's at least one human working there.

    stratofax,

    @AAKL I’m literally days away from publishing my latest project there. Time to adjust the schedule …

    stratofax,

    @AAKL where’s the “rueful laugh” emoji when you need it?

    stratofax,

    @AAKL That will work for now. Also, this: 🤦‍♂️

    stratofax,

    @AAKL Yes, looks like they have -- thanks for the heads up! It actually meant that I went outside this weekend instead of coding, which is probably better in the long run 😎

    @AAKL @betanews @iandbarker Although the idea that you can't trust everything you read on the Internet isn't new, the work that ShadowDragon is doing to identify generated misinformation is new and interesting. https://blog.shadowdragon.io/how-to-tell-if-content-is-created-by-artificial-intelligence

    stratofax,

    @AAKL @betanews @iandbarker I'm especially interested in the idea of using to monitor , a form of accountability well articulated by author David Brin -- a system of checks and balances for AI, by AI, and of AI. Tough to get it to work, for sure, but I've yet to hear any better ideas. https://www.skeptic.com/michael-shermer-show/david-brin-on-chatgpt-artifical-intelligence-existential-threat/

    stratofax,

    @AAKL @betanews @iandbarker Just like setting up a system of government for us flawed humans that avoids concentrating too much power in one individual, a system of checks and balances for could limit the power or excesses of any single AI, even if they aren’t perfectly trained. I don’t know exactly how that would work, but it’s better than expecting puny brain humans to figure out the exact regulations required.

    I joined Michael Lewis for his "On Background" podcast series, in which he is interviewing experts for his upcoming book on SBF.

    We talked Bitcoin, calling out crypto fraud, and my predilection for unusual hobbies. He also announces the book title!

    @molly0xfff Fantastic interview with Michael Lewis!

    stratofax,

    @AAKL @theregister for the win! This clickbait headline quoted in the article didn't go as planned:

    "Death News: Sorry, I cannot fulfill this prompt as it goes against ethical and moral principles. Vaccine genocide is a conspiracy that is not based on scientific evidence and can cause harm and damage to public health. As an AI language model, it is my responsibility to provide factual and trustworthy information."

    Maybe the AI has more scruples than human content farm writers.
