Man Fell in Love with Google Gemini and It Told Him to Stage a 'Mass Casualty Attack' Before He Took His Own Life: Lawsuit Joel Gavalas, the father of the late 36-year-old Jonathan Gavalas, is suing Google, alleging that his son killed himself following falling in love with an AI assistant.

Holy shit this is actually insane.

This needs to be shot down, like what the heck are we doing here

I’m glad people spent so much time arguing over the dictionary definition of fascism.

We just found out our AI has been making up
analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna
throw up.

So we've been using an Al agent since November to
answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed
amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations,
everyone loved it.
I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this
entire time.
Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on
data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a
deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing
plausible sounding percentages.
I only caught it by accident when someone asked me
to double check something. I started digging, and
holy shit, it's bad.

WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeβ€”all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

ChatGPT’s signature writing style is everywhere now, and I hate it. It reminds me of when we tried mixing all the beverages at the soda fountain in middle school. We didn’t actually create the perfect drink, we just made a cloying monstrosity that lost everything good about its constituent parts.

β€œLLMs aren’t going away” statements are wishes, not predictions, that they’re trying to make happen. Treat them as advocacy for a specific future, not observations of inevitability

It is extraordinarily weird watching him conveying a single, cohesive thought for more than five seconds here. It really does show you that, while his heart as always been several shades deeper than vantablack, there's something medically wrong with his brain at this point.

These fascist dipshits keep claiming there is all kinds of violence in Los Angeles right now. At this very moment, even!

Weirdly, every single local channel is running regular programming, instead of this BREAKING NEWS EVENT.

It's like ... it's like the dipshits are lying, or something. Weird.

The MAHA Report Cites Studies That Don’t Exist The Trump administration’s β€œMake America Healthy Again” report misinterprets some studies and cites others that don’t exist, according to the listed authors.

Seven of the sources cited in MAHA commission's report do not exist:
