Artificial Generalized Incompetence
How about the outlet checks and finds out?
I did, and I couldn’t get low-temperature Gemini or a local LLM to replicate it, and not all the tariffs seem to be based on the trade deficit ratio, though some suspiciously are.
Sorry, but this is a button of mine, outlets that ask stupidly easy to verify questions but dont even try. No, just cite people on Reddit and Twitter…
though some suspiciously are.
Some? A huge portion are. Numerous others have replicated it with visual proof. I agree that the news sites should be verifying it, but NYT did and also documented their proof.
All the search engines search the same internet, find similar text, output it using similar formulas.
Except these AI systems aren’t search engines, and people treating them like they are is really dangerous
They are. They record the data, stealing it. They search it (or characteristics of it), and reprint it (in whole or in part) upon request.
Viewing it as something creative, or other than a glorified remixing machine is the problem. It’s a search engine for creative works they’ve stolen, and reproduce parts of.
They search the data-space of what they’re “trained” on (our content, the content of human beings), and reproduce statistically defined elements of it.
They’re search engines that have stolen what they’re “trained on”, and reproduce it as “results” (be that images or written text, it has to come from our collective data. Data we created). It’s theft. It’s copywrite fraud. Same as google stealing books (which they had to he sued over the digitizing of, and enter into rights agreements over).
Searching and reproducing content they’ve already recorded (aka stolen without permission), is absolutely part of what they are. Part of what they do.
Don’t stan for them or pretend they’re creative, intelligent, or doing anything original.
The real lie is that it’s “training data”. It’s not. It’s the internet, and it’s not training - it’s theft, it’s stealing and copying (violating copyright). Digital stealing, and processing into a “data set”, a representation or repackaging of our original works.

Yeah, and then they convert that to weighted probabilities or a “data space” which they then search during content generation.
