Prominent "free-speech absolutist" threatens to sue Jewish anti-hate group because it engaged in free speech he didn't like.

"Elon Musk has threatened to sue the Anti-Defamation League after accusing the civil rights group that campaigns against antisemitism and bigotry of trying to “kill” his X social media platform.

"The owner of X, formerly known as Twitter, said the ADL was trying to shut down his company by 'falsely accusing it and me of being antisemitic'."

If your list of enemies includes the ADL, then there's a more-than-reasonable chance that you're an anti-semite.

I quoted your comment to ChatGPT 3.5 and asked what you were referring to with "the 14 words". I've never seen it take so long to answer, and when it finally did, it was like watching someone else write in a shared Google doc, including watching words getting replaced. Maybe my question triggered a reply by an actual human?

That’s why us old folks just use the regular internet. Wikipedia has no shame.

In this regard, I'm probably part of the old folks. I'm older than the WWW at least. I just figured I'd try asking ChatGPT with context instead of Google because I didn't want something I suspected to be Nazi terminology in my search history.

I was just surprised by how differently it reacted compared to when I tested it with alt history scenario requests a few months ago.

If you’re asking ChatGPT on a Google device, that’s absolutely in your history anyway haha

Yes, but there's context about why I asked

For the love of... stop using generative AI to give you answers to questions! If it doesn't have an answer it just makes it up completely.

It took long because you're on the free tier and you were rate limited. The idea that a human is writing your answer is so laughably absurd I genuinely don't know if you're serious.

Chat GPT does know the answer to this particular question, and provides a very good answer. Why stop using something that works so well?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I assume you looked up if it was correct to be able to say that does know the answer. In that case, why did you bother with ChatGPT?

Never take anything generative AI produces as factual unless you check it. It is not designed to produce factual information and is very often wrong and confidently incorrect.

Since you also didn't answer what it was and I also didn't know.

Nah - sometimes you just get a server that's overloaded and slow. Hit stop, then regenerate, it'll be fast.
