      @nyquildotorg Yup.

      I don't blame the person who did it. The companies pushing this use gendered names and pronouns. They want people to treat it like a person. The lies these companies are pushing is the problem.

          My employer, like so many others, has been forcing the use of hallucination machines. During a meeting recently we were talking about using it, and I referred to it as "it".

          Obviously, it is proper English to do so. But, one coworker was shocked by this and asked me why I used that word. I calmly explained that it is a large very flawed statistical model and nothing more, so "it" is the appropriate word.

          I think that blew their mind. Their reaction was just silence.

          I miss actual intelligence

          @minego I, as non native speaker, have problems with it. What was the form? Everytime I just say "cladue did this and that" and feel bad about it, as they gave it human name and therefore I sound like I'm talking about a human. How would you start a sentence where the LLM was not priorly introduced?

              @minego my zoologist friends at uni were carefully instructed not to anthropomorphise animals. AI is even riskier, as we may start to care about it, and that will definitely be a selling point. 💀

                @minego TBF, I know it's a it, and I kept misgendering it as 'he' the three morning I used it. Remember Eliza: "Can you leave the room?".

                      @minego weirdest shocking thing i overheard was the following:

                      A: copilot isn’t really helpful

                      B: well i found out, if you’re really nice to it, if you say please and thank you a lot and even „dear copilot“ the results become better

                      A: ah, thanks for that hint.

                      i never talked to these people again. probably never will.

                        @minego The most disturbing thing to me is that, if we were to genuinely believe that these models were conscious individuals, then using them would be slavery and exploitation. Thankfully they're not conscious, of course, but the fact that so many people blithely use these models while pretending they are (or soon will be) conscious is still incredibly disturbing and says something about us.

                            @mdione @minego TBF I'm thinking of caling it "Atntropic Claude" to accent that it's a product. Just like when I always write "Google Youtube' or "Microsoft GIthub" to show that it's a not a nice, indie service.

                                  @forse @minego That too. But I think there's a difference between realizing that the system and the rich and powerful are exploiting everyone and everything, and realizing that lots of ordinary people are apparently just fine with having their own personal slave.

                                  I mean, it's not surprising, as nothing is these days, but it's disturbing.

                                    @minego I noticed the slightly more positive term 'Text Processor' for it today.

                                    I like 'automatic writing', but that's human operated (the uninitiated should see Yeats)

                                    Inteligence is a misnomer.

                                    Too late though, the framing is complete?

                                        My employer, like so many others, has been forcing the use of hallucination machines. During a meeting recently we were talking about using it, and I referred to it as "it".

                                        Obviously, it is proper English to do so. But, one coworker was shocked by this and asked me why I used that word. I calmly explained that it is a large very flawed statistical model and nothing more, so "it" is the appropriate word.

                                        I think that blew their mind. Their reaction was just silence.

                                        I miss actual intelligence

                                          You are literally erasing my AI with your wrong pronouns.
