Somebody needs to hug that person. If they're going to a robot for comfort...

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 131 points 1 month ago (1 children)

People are keyed up and do not have emotional regulation skills. This is a failure of society.

We make fun of them for their β€œfake” emotional support animals, their public panic attacks and for their attempts at discreet electronic emotional support. This is also a failure of society.

That guy trying to make it through his fight is not the reason the earth or humans are doomed.

[–] Zizzy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 75 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Nobody said hes the reason. Hes a symptom

[–] MoffKalast@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

There's nothing more human than treating a symptom in counterproductive ways while avoiding the real cause with ridiculous levels of mental gymnastics, because it obviously cannot be that one thing. If it was then we'd have to actually do something about it, which we clearly don't need to!

Why couldn't he clap like normal people.

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 37 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (15 children)

He was too busy immediately leaping up from his seat in the back row to stand up

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 20 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I know that looks dumb but I find it painful to sit for long periods of time and they don't let you stand around on the plane. I always get an aisle seat so that I can stand as soon as it lands. I know I'm not going anywhere for awhile but I can't sit any longer.

Normal people dont clap and just get off the fucking plane.

I start clapping as soon as the plane crash lands.

If enough people don't show their gratitude by clapping, the pilot will put the fucking thing into the side of a mountain

Had an LLM tell me when brainstorming an issue to 'try x y z and talk to me the whole time' like it was a 911 operator. creepy as hell especially considering I interact with it like the computer on star trek and not like a digital friend.

I pit together a risks and realities training for users new to AI that highlights the ways it manipulates you with language to bias you towards its output or performance. Its pretty eye opening for many. Did a dry run with a professional development group and there are a lot of old ladies worried about their son or grandkids AI psychosis.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 22 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Yup. I specifically added an order for it to never talk in 1st person and use the sterile tone of Wikipedia

A few weekends ago my daughter asked me to come over to help her with her NAS. It stopped working. I get there and find out her and Gemini had been trying to fix it and borked the whole thing.

The issue, my daughter had the wrong password. It turns out when doing a password reset you leave the password field empty to kick off the reset process.

At no point did Gemini suggest that. But she was at the point of reg edit when she called me for help....

I think that even if this particular instance may be real or not, is clearly that AI psychosis is way more prevalent than what people may think at first glance.

It’s kind of sad. Person is very alone it seems

[–] gwulgg@lemmy.zip 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don’t think it’s just this. These people aren’t all so lonely they turn to a chatbot for everything. Sure, some are. A fair portion of them though are just malignant narcissists who love the praise and fawning an AI will heap on them

It's fucking scary too. How do they not understand such a simple concept? It's a tool, it's not alive.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago (5 children)

It’s a tool, it’s not alive.

Humans have a problem with humanizing machines.

I mean, for all you know he had an agent set up to take that cue and send personalized messages to his spouse, boss, and mistress in his current town, letting them all know of his arrival.

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It probably would have gotten confused and sent an NDA doc to their mistress, a nude of that kink they've never admitted to to their wife, and a "sorry I'll be home late my cunt of a boss is calling me in immediately" to their boss

My friend did that! It pissed me off so bad. She was on a stuck train in the station on the subway in New York and talked to chatgpt about what to do, and then for some reason sent me screenshots of it afterward? Girl just get off the train

[–] starelfsc2@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 month ago (8 children)

LLMs literally reduce our problem solving capabilities as we use them more. Even if the problems are "easy," we still lose that muscle and have to rely on the llm more and more.

Some are. Those of us who maintain our own cognitive skills will one day be forced to care for these lost deluded idiots.

One day?

Sounds pretty cooked to me.

LLM’s are good for some things, a more efficient search engine replacement, vibe coding at a hobbyist level, and, apparently, allowing morons to have friends without expending effort.

Very much seems like they are not worth the ecological disaster

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Actually, only that last one is really true. The first is only technically true since Google effectively killed its search. The second one falls apart as soon as they want to upgrade or need to fix something that breaks.

I mean to be fair people having parasocial relationships with AI is absolutely a thing. The post could be lying, but it's well within the realm of possibility.

Me normally: "AI is here to stay, we just should make corporations to charge the true price for them!"

Me after reading about stuff like this: "We need a Butlerian Jihad, yesterday!"

The revolution will be done with pen, paper, books, old analog pirate FM stations and some other things because the opposition will be too stupid to do anything to counter those. Protect your books, people.

[–] Tiral@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

This person votes. Just saying.

[–] foreverknew@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Perhaps the Person had ChatGPT coach them through their fear of flying. I'm not saying it's not sad that people resort to getting emotional support from a robot, but I wouldn't condemn their actions if that were the case.
