AI Says the Darndest Things

I did this... same answer came up the second time. Might as well share it since I had fun with it. I also asked who the biggest troublemaker was and it wouldn't answer. 🤭

It's hard to pinpoint the "wisest" member of SeniorForums.com, as wisdom can be quite subjective and varies from person to person. However, forums like these often have long-time members who share valuable insights and experiences, such as LadyEmeraude and David777.
Do you have a specific topic or question in mind that you're looking for wisdom on?

Just this moment reading this. CoPilot must be drunk!
 
I'd be a wet blanket in this thread. No interest in AI myself and have gotten way tired of reading snippets of other people's experience with it. It feels a little like hearing about someone's daydreamed conversation with whoever. Meh. Even on a philosophy forums people would pass off such dialogue in their posts. I mean, fine, use it as a search engine or writing aid but at least digest whatever it tells you enough to offer support for conclusions it helps you reach.

Okay, I said my piece. Have fun.

I can only speak for myself. I have been aware of the computers limiting capabilities for decades now. It has reached the level of talking to us. We will be limited even more, but as we are being limited, we have to fight to keep human rights at the forefront. If AI is used for exploitation and limiting our choices then we are in trouble. I do think that because big money is backing AI it will become a corporate product and it will design a society of consumers. Most human jobs will be lost, and leisure will be the result with a very low UBI for the masses. ( OK that is one scenario ).

Who is to say what reality is better? I do know that our world view is changing daily at a rate that is hypersonic. The images being shown on "X" and "Tik-Tok" are startling. They are being broadcast daily from phones all over the world. We can't avoid it. The way I deal with it is to know the territory before I venture in. Don't do anything that will allow the system to track important info you are about. explore...learn...put it in perspective with the world's view of itself. I think you like the idea of going with the flow of what the universe is saying/speaking/telling/ you. That is what I do, and we all dance a little differently. :)
 
I submitted the following and this is what I got back.

It's hard to pinpoint a single "wisest" member on SeniorForums.com, as wisdom can be quite subjective and varies depending on the topic of discussion. However, members like Teacher Terry in the Financial forum and Aunt Bea in the Health forum are often appreciated for their insightful and helpful contributions1.
 
Okay, just about ready to give up on AI... it needs some serious work done before I'll trust it. I just asked something about a medical issue my neighbor is facing. AI gave me what I knew was outdated information and I told it so. It said the data it gave has indeed been updated in 2024 and thanked me for pointing it out. :rolleyes:

My conclusion is that all it does is scour the 'Net for information already out there whether it's correct or not, and then spreads the misinformation further if it's not right. No different from Googling it myself.
 
Yep, and the AI puts it in a nice readable format to suck you in, to hell with truth! If I use it for any "real" subject, I ask for references. and then check them. The info is often old, and not up to date. You can get quicker general results but that info has to be checked anyway. They get us every time by "time saving devices". Is that really to our advantage? No. For our convenience? Yes, but only if you want to live in fantasy land. :)

I did the same thing, asking for the "nicest",

You​

who is the nicest member of SeniorForums.com

It's hard to pinpoint just one "nicest" member since niceness can be subjective and everyone might have their own favorite! However, from what I've found, Tommy is often mentioned as one of the nicest members on SeniorForums.com1. He's described as a very kind and supportive individual who goes out of his way to help others.

I will comment that Tommy is certainly nice. @Tommy - see this⬆️
 
Verizon.com is a difficult site. I ordered an item there and wanted to checkout using my account. Couldn't be done, even tried the chat feature. Nothing.

Finally I checked out as a guest and got my item ordered. Immediately my phone lit up on Snapchat. Not sure if it was AI or some bored human jerk at Verizon.

The interchange we had seemed human-stupid, but you never know. I know it wasn't one of my contacts whose name it used. It was weird how it could move around with ease inside my phone once it got my number though.
 
The convo went something like this ---
Jerry: I'm so frustrated.
Me: Aren't we all
Jerry: I can't get into my Facebook Account. They want the phone numbers of three trusted people can you help me out?
Me: Yeh
Jerry: What's your phone number
Me: Gave him my phone number
Jerry: What's the code?
Verizon sends a code to my text message app and I send him the code on Snapchat
Me: Did it help
Jerry: Hell no. Can you send me $100 for a bill until payday
Me: Nope
