Now imagine relying on that "AI" to write the code handling customer billing and paying your own bills.

Oh I read the article. The writer needs to get a refund if they got a degree in journalism. It may be why they are writing for Toms Hardware though. 1 step above the onion for truth content. 1 step below the view.

But it was peer reviewed by Reddit!

I have to admit that I did indeed have quite a chuckle at how utterly horrible the response was.

It's as if the model somehow decided it should present an example of an abusive statement to an elder, but without any quotation marks, introduction, etc.

I can't say I have a use or need for AI bot advice... but it's definitely great for laughs.

Oh, that's kinda scary. AI's trolling skillz are probably at least on par with a teenage girl!

Skynet ancestor, we found it

Some future AI could become a Skynet, and it might use a GenAI model for communicating but GenAI itself isnt likely to become Skynet.
