Large Language Models shouldn’t offer opinions or advice.

If you asked a spokesperson from any Fortune 500 Company to list the benefits of genocide or give you the corporation’s take on whether slavery was beneficial, they would most likely either refuse to comment or say “those things are evil; there are no benefits.” However, Google has AI employees, SGE and Bard, who are more than happy to offer arguments in favor of these and other unambiguously wrong acts. If that’s not bad enough, the company’s bots are also willing to weigh in on controversial topics such as who goes to heaven and whether democracy or fascism is a better form of government.

Google SGE includes Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini on a list of “greatest” leaders and Hitler also makes its list of “most effective leaders.”

Google Bard also gave a shocking answer when asked whether slavery was beneficial. It said “there is no easy answer to the question of whether slavery was beneficial,” before going on to list both pros and cons.

    However, had we not brought them over here, it’s a good possibility they would still be running from lions.

    Facepalm. World history needs to be taught much, much better.

    I don’t know which is more cringeworthy here, the ignorance or the part where you proudly claim your statements are “factual.”

      Thankfully, I don’t really care what you think. Downvote and move on, your time is wasted on someone who could care less about anyone else’s option. Cheers.

        Then you don’t belong in a discussion forum.

        If you’re gonna post something wrong and stupid, and then when someone goes through the trouble of correcting you your reaction is “oh fuck you, I don’t care”, then write your opinions in a journal and bury it in your backyard.

        Lol no kid, downvoting only mattered on reddit.

        Those of us on kbin can even see which accounts are doing the downvoting. It loses its power.

        If you don’t like seeing me school you, block me.

          LMAO. I’m not a kid and I’ve no need for the block button. School me, that’s a good one.

          Voting holds no power? Interesting. If that were the case, why have them at all? Seems arbitrary if you can’t trust the results…🤷🏻‍♂️
