Einstein called quantum entanglement “spooky action at a distance” so you’re in good company.

underisk,

There’s a default invisible prompt that precedes every conversation that sets parameters like tone, style, and taboos. The AI was instructed to behave like this, at least somewhat.

I didn’t say they specifically told it to be condescending. They probably told it to adopt something like a professional neutral tone and the trained model produced a mildly condescending tone because that’s what it associated with those adjectives. This is why I said it was only somewhat instructed to do this.

They almost certainly tweaked and tested it before releasing it to the public. So they knew what they were getting either way and this must be what they wanted or close enough.

Every time I see an experiment like this it’s wildly successful and then never made into any kind of law or permanent social program.

underisk,

I guess you’re against COVID treatments too because coming in contact with other human beings is also a choice. Lung Cancer cure? No thanks, they chose to smoke those cigarettes so I would like them to suffer.

If you have insurance, private or public, you’re paying for them either way. That’s how insurance works.

Complete what program the money was provided with no strings attached. I also saw no selection criteria so I don’t know why you think this group was hand selected for maximum results. Any decent study would randomize the participants so I’m sure a statistically proportional number of mentally ill homeless also got the payments.

And as for the part about it not effecting the perception of homelessness, directly from the article:

The guaranteed income also dramatically reduced visible homelessness
