"I just found out that it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time."

@Natasha_Jay

Someone who knows the systems MUST Proofread ¨everything" that your ai spits out at you.

@Natasha_Jay if you’re going along with the personification of a technological system, then I just don’t know what to tell that guy.

@Natasha_Jay How does anyone think LLMs base anything on facts or data? They are plausabiliy machines, designed to flood the zone.

@Natasha_Jay I don't understand how anybody can read the news about "AI" day after day and think "Oh everyone else's AI is fabricating random bullshit 24/7, but ours is fine".

@Natasha_Jay what? noooo!

@Natasha_Jay (Maybe) Learning it the hard way. Well deserved.

@lxskllr @Natasha_Jay you mean this as a joke but as someone who worked with marketing data for a long time i wouldn't be surprised at all... the problem is that they are trying to predict outcomes of extremely complex processes from an incredibly limited data inputs. in the end it is mostly about how well you can bullshit your reasons for one or the other dilecision. and people will just never be as good as machines at certain things.

@Natasha_Jay loll I guess they never tried giving it simple math problems before launching.

AI can't do numbers consistently.

@Natasha_Jay

The only use of ai my company has successfully implemented is having it write emails to dead leads.

@Natasha_Jay Does AI Count Virtual Sheeps To Fall Sleep, an unknown work of Philip K Dick.

@Natasha_Jay

ngl this stirred my loins

@Natasha_Jay

The game of "passing the buck" on this one will be interesting. Hopefully those numbers are at least approximately correct.

@Natasha_Jay its not magic its a tool / if you don't understand marh, a scientific calculator does you no good / sounding like a bunch of boomers its 2026 yall / learn the tools before you deploy

@sodiboo @drahardja @indigoviolet the reason I know of for breaking the link (by using hxxp) is when you don’t want to contribute referrer data to the linked site. Reddit doesn’t need to know we’re talking about them.

@maniaclives @sodiboo @indigoviolet Correct. Referrer attribution, plus it prevents your server (or your local machine) from pulling or showing a preview from the site.

@drahardja @Natasha_Jay any idea why the moderators deleted the post?

@Natasha_Jay Saying it is hallucinating gives it too much intellectual credit. It is incapable of hallucinating. GenAI bullshits patterns into something that has a probability of looking like what was requested. A model doesn't know right or wrong. It doesn't understand anything. It doesn't think. It bullshits. This firm implemented a bullshitter that has no intelligence and are somehow surprised that it has been producing bullshit.
