@Natasha_Jay what the actual F***!? This is the 2008 financial crisis all over again!! (Weird defence, but I feel is oddly equivocal here).
Building assumptions on assumptions on assumptions until someone actually looks, and then entire scheme collapses wiping out peoples lives. How do we keep doing this!?!?
Ugh A.I. -

Even if you make your own LLM it's still useless as a replacement for polling.@lemonlolita @Natasha_Jay for polling you need people I thought to make a poll platform. -
voting in a democracy is so wasteful
much more efficient to leave to AI to decide how we might vote
At long last, we have created The Torment Nex^W^WMultivac, from the classic dystopian sci-fi cautionary tale, "Don't Invent Multi^W^W^WFranchise"
Those who do not understand Multics are condemned to reinvent it, poorly.

@Natasha_Jay This is a key plot point for the 1964 novel Simulacron-3 - using simulated populations for public opinion polling instead of needing to poll real people (which was done constantly in the novel).
It turns out the protagonist's society was actually a simulator for higher-level entities.
It was adapted into the 1999 movie The Thirteenth Floor.

@Natasha_Jay I really hope these AI agents ingest all of the silly mastodon polls.

And if you want to fill out 1,008 questionnaires for $100 I think I might have a gig for ya
@ohir @jawarajabbi @Natasha_Jay 1008? Should not be too tough with a little python script, if the results can be made up anyway...

Nope. Video proof of protein filling it with their hand and pen, on paper -

@Natasha_Jay “Idiotic” is being polite! Modeling is already a thing. These kinds of “findings" should always be framed as such and not actual samplings. Hopefully everyone learned something here.

Thats why I said about a gig for the protein who stated that it would be fast and cheap.Problem is real.
We need to find a way to detect the falsification of survey questionnaires. We can statistically identify the work of a dishonest surveyor, but if that person uses a "silicon sampling" bot, statistical methods will fail. That is why we are starting to record the human hand filling out the paper form, as proof that the pollster actually interviewed various people and did not just made the survey on their sofa casually talking with a bot.

You get the idea they really are trying to completely replace people

@ohir @jawarajabbi @Natasha_Jay now I get your point. Thank you.
Maybe we should stop doing surveys... -

Silicon sampling,
engagement farming,
What's next, silicon disenfranchisement... extrapolation farming?Why the discombobulation of terms? Make them seems smart or deceptive?

Nope. Video proof of protein filling it with their hand and pen, on paper I mean... is this expression for people as "protein" common in tech or did you just make it up? Because as a person I find the expression a little... surprising?

@Natasha_Jay Wow, really?!? This is the stupidest idea since drinking bleach to cure COVID[1]
[1] Editors note: Science says if you drink enough bleach you will no longer suffer from COVID, or a need for oxygen or food.

@Natasha_Jay Reminds me of this Star Trek TOS episode where a war is done using computer simulation (but they however kill number of people killed in the simulation).

@Natasha_Jay There are many things in the running, but this may be the most abhorrent use of LLMs I've seen so far
