@oppen who needs to know anything when you can just guess the answer based on a probability that is right a good amount of the time!?
@liaizon In $dayjob we have an elusive bug in our impl. of Android's MediaSession/ExoPlayer. Having previously spent days trying to fix it I thought I'd try the Claude account we're testing, let's see if the AI can find the problem... it's very very confidentlly identified the issue in 3 or 4 places so far, none of the fixes it's added have worked at all, but the language it uses is so matter of fact. It's a user-facing issue and the in-app radio playback locks up until restart, so big problem when it happens, the 1st time Claude said it knew what the issue was I was momentarily very happy...

@oppen it so often being confidently wrong is one of the most annoying aspects of this jank for sure. I think many people would respond better to a bunch more of "I don't know!" responses littered in (it could probably just be randomized) just to have less certainty...

amazing how jank this all is

@liaizon Perfect comedy! Really digging the references on this one:

@despens its amazing to see how everytime google uses citations they are basically randomly added later. like it makes up some shit, then "cites" it by just showing a link that contains a single word of your search.

This post of yours is actually a prompt that forms the foundation of a billion dollar business -

The correct answer is 3.

@liaizon missed opportunity, Google, missed opportunity.

@fluchtkapsel its impressive how consistent this "bug" is, like they have to realize it by now. I wonder what the internal Google chat looksike atm

the sad thing is that they can (and might) fix this, but the fix will be one of these two:1. have the model run much longer, then have another model read that output and summarize: "reasoning" (aka maximize resource burning)
2. give the AI a traditionally-implemented "count characters in word" tool (address the symptom, aka admit defeat. -

i was under the impression that other general-purpose models have solved this and would've guessed they implemented option 2 but actually chatgpt is still confidently wrong (now with sources!)

@s_ol I love how all these companies are completely ruining the concept of souces and citations
