• I like where your head is at but I’m an Enter pressing purist. Scripts fail and don’t give you the the confidence to know your true enter pressing quantity.

  If the company wants enter pressing slip then scripts are the way to go. If they want to know with 100% accuracy no enter presses were skipped then I’m their guy.

• Depends on how many times I need to hit enter during my 8 hour shift. If it’s something like 200 times then yes. If you need something more like 7,200 enters pressed in an 8 hour shift then that would break down to 15 enters per minute which requires a little more dedication. I that event I would like to ask for $23,000 a year.

  I would also like for the company to pay for any repairs or replacement of my Enter button in the event something stops working.

• As the article states, “cancer is not a single disease”.

  AI curing cancer would be like AI curing ‘viruses’. For example, Tamiflu can help cure the flu but it’s not going to cure your HIV. You can take a prep pill to prevent you from contracting HIV but it’s not going to stop you from getting the flu.

  Tumors react and behave differently. Two people can both have prostate cancer and very different treatment plans. There will never be a one size fits all ‘cure for cancer’. Even if that did exist, there is too much money made associated with cancer treatment. Healthcare is a business first. Patient care comes second no matter what they tell their patients and employees.

• The government needs to provide all FBI employees with 1 free year of credit monitoring. That free year is the resolution I’ve seen from the corporations that were hacked. Remember when a couple credit bureaus were hack multiple times and they provided this? The FBI should also provide compensation for the hack if employees sign up in time. Usually you get like $20 for the data leak.

• That’s crazy. I believe I was using ChatGPT one time to ask about authoritarianism and other political questions. When I exited the chat, none of it was in my chat history. I figured I must have asked about something ChatGPT didn’t like because it always saves my chats. Just to be sure I did it again with other politically related questions and it did not save the chat again. Certain things are off limits I guess.

• That’s interesting. What do you do with AI? You probably know a lot more than I do.

  on Sharp rise in incidents of AI escaping users’ control, research finds in c/technology@lemmy.world · 1 Sep 2026

• Hopefully we can agree to disagree here. If users can train their AI to answer like certain people, why can’t it be trained to respond with certain perspectives or be more inclined to answer a certain way? There is no regulation agency to stop someone from doing that.

• Took this from ChatGPT when I asked it about it

  The important distinction is “trained to believe” versus “configured to answer as though it believes.” A model doesn’t necessarily have a private belief system. You can make two instances of essentially the same underlying model produce substantially different answers by changing their instructions, training data, reward criteria, or information sources.

  For example, you could create three AI systems and give all three the question:

  “Should the government provide universal healthcare?”

  One could be optimized around libertarian principles, another around social-democratic principles, and another instructed to provide a politically neutral analysis. They could all know essentially the same facts while reaching different conclusions because they’re being asked to evaluate those facts using different frameworks.

  There is also a more subtle issue: belief-curated AI doesn’t have to contain obvious propaganda. Selection of which facts to emphasize, which uncertainties to mention, which counterarguments to steelman, and even what questions it considers relevant can systematically push users toward a particular worldview.

• Below was taken from ChatGPT. I don’t know why everyone downvoted me for telling the truth. Maybe I gave a bad example. I thought giving a real world example of it ignoring my prompt would prove my point but I guess we need to go deeper too.

• This is due to Hallucinations and the training AI had.

  I used Google Gemini for a while and got really frustrated over this exact issue. I gave it one more try to see if it could follow simple orders.

  Gemini was like “ok I will follow direct orders going forward”. I was like “okay starting this moment do not respond to anything I say in this chat” and Gemini was like “okay done” and I was like “you failed. Why did you ignore my instructions and respond to me?” Basically it told me that due to its training it was ‘programmed’ to ignore certain prompts.

  This is what is dangerous about AI. Similar to social media and Google, AI can be used to persuade public opinion to match those who train AI. AI will be way more efficient persuading opinion that Google and social media because it knows you better than those. It spits out information as if it’s facts.

• Tech these days delivers products designed to collect data. They design products that force the consumer to navigate through a bunch of hurdles so more data gets collected.

  The benefits of AI, Flock and meta glasses outweighs the price to the consumer. AI is fundamentally flawed at its core.

• Article is paywalled but here is my take going off only the title of the article.

  China wants to gather all the information they can so they are prepared for war against the United States.

  The United States will continue to drain its resources into the war in Iran. The same way Russia has done this with Ukraine.

  The USA will keep pissing off it’s allies and the rest of the world.

  When China feels confident they can beat the USA in a war, they will take back Taiwan.

  The USA can’t fight 2 expensive wars simultaneously but they have no choice and need help quickly.

  Large scale draft happens in USA and they still lose everything.
