@Natasha_Jay This part in the original post is fantastic:

@drahardja @Natasha_Jay I believe it’s supposed to be h*tt*ps

@Natasha_Jay It seems to me that AI tools have been released prematurely to generate revenue from the massive investments AI tech companies are making. This type of hallucination could cause serious damage to any business, organisation or person using it. Who is accountable in the end? Given the history of big tech's social media platforms and the harm theyare causing you can bet they'll accept no responsibility.

"... just inventing plausible sounding [answers]"
This shit is so tiring - that is literally all any AI is even *meant* to do. They are not even designed to give correct answers to questions, but just examples of what a plausible answer could sound like.
(edit: sorry, I know I'm likely preaching to the choir here, but it's just so fucking tiring seeing people surprised by this crap.)

@Natasha_Jay Bwahahahahahaha

@Natasha_Jay .. and you really want to blame the technology for this... If there was no process for checking the facts that were used , it is simply bad implementation, everyone knows you have to check for or do something against hallucinations with GenAI.

@jmcclure Keep preaching
@Natasha_Jay -
@ZenHeathen @Natasha_Jay the thing is, there is no change-over "period" once you use this daily, your org begins lose its institutional memory
@Bredroll @ZenHeathen @Natasha_Jay And there will be further, probably unnoticed, changeover periods, when the technology less or more silently provider changes (or even the org changes provider, …) their services, e.g., the used model is changed.

So I asked the higher ups to double check this $11M investment they made to run the show in our department. Everything promised was made worse with zero improvements. We lost a lot of experience and money. Almost lost me too, but I'm a fixer and they are going to pay me a lot of overtime...

@Natasha_Jay so much karma

Oh yes, that’s a beauty!! Just shaking my head in disbelief here…

I can't wait to deploy AI on the battlefield! And for policing.

What would be amusing is them having greater success using bullshit data than whoever was previously correlating stuff :^D

@ErikJonker then where's the productivity gain promised with AI if you still have to do the work to get the numbers you trust? Why take on the additional cost at that point?
If you had an employee who was constantly lying to you, you'd fire them.

@jmcclure so many people don't understand this.

@GreatBigTable also true, you have to make a rational business decision, as with every other technology

@Natasha_Jay this can't be real, right? Everyone knows AI isn't ready for any mission critical stuff right now (probably years away)
