A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
When you go to machines for advice, it’s safe to assume they are going to give it exactly the way they have been programmed to.
If you go to machine for life decisions, it’s safe to assume you are not smart enough to know better, and- by merit of this example, probably should not be allowed to use them.
It took me some time to understand the problem
That’s not their job though
AI is the embodiment of "oh no, anyways"
Futurama vibes
what does this have to do with mania and psychosis?
There are various other reports of CGPT pushing susceptible people into psychosis where they think they're god, etc.
It's correct, just different articles
fall to my death in absolute mania, screaming and squirming as the concrete gets closer
pull a trigger
As someone who is also planning for 'retirement' in a few decades, guns always seemed to be the better plan.
Yeah, it probably would be pills of some kind to me. Honestly the only thing stopping me is that I somehow fuck it up and end up trapped in my own body.
Would be happily retired otherwise

Razors pain you; Rivers are damp; Acids stain you; And drugs cause cramp. Guns aren’t lawful; Nooses give; Gas smells awful; You might as well live.
There are not many ways to kill one's self that don't usually end up a botched suicide attempt. Pills are a painful and horrible way to go.
I'm a postmortem scientist and one of the scariest things I learned in college, was that only 85% of gun suicide attempts were successful. The other 15% survive and nearly all have brain damage. I only know of 2 painless ways to commit suicide, that don't destroy the body's appearance, so they can still have funeral visitation.
Dunno, the idea of 5 seconds time for whatever there is to reach you through the demons whispering in your ear contemplating when to pull the trigger to the 12gauge aimed at your face seems the most logical bad decision
Do we honestly think OpenAI or tech bros care? They just want money. Whatever works. They're evil like every other industry
AI is a mistake and we would be better off if the leadership of OpenAI was sealed in an underground tomb. Actually, that's probably true of most big org's leadership.
