    It’s wild how so many people seem to have no idea what it’s like to even use LLMs, even for research. Kinda mind blowing how people just accept others opinions as their own. Reminds me of people that hated on tiktok without ever even trying it

    People were already just letting Fox and other propaganda networks tell them how to vote. I guess it was only a matter of time before they let AI tell them.

    Not sure if this is worse or just the same in a different package.

    I asked. It asked which state I’m from and what are my top 3 issues. I said I’m from Michigan and healthcare is too expensive. It replied that El-Sayed is explicitly pro Medicare for All. It asked what aspect about healthcare is too expensive. I said I don’t want to pay insurance. It replied that puts me straight into El-Sayed’s orbit.

    I don’t think this would turn out as bad as people watching Fox News. Scam Altman doesn’t seem to have brainwashed GPT to say El-Sayed is communist antisemitic Hamas supporter.

      A Senate race, especially a high profile one like El-Sayed’s, yeah, you’ll be fine.

      A local race? Forget it. Hallucination city.

      I hear what you’re saying and somewhat agree, but I really don’t like the idea of consolidating voting intelligence into corporate entities like this.

      Even if it works fine today, it might not tomorrow. This is setting a very bad precedent for future generations.

      And you can’t even say it’ll work great today. You just know that in your contrived example, it was honest. What if it’s dishonest with 5% of voters who seem more naive through statistics? That can completely throw off elections.

        Oh I’m not happy about this at all. All I’m saying it they haven’t tuned it nearly as well in their interest as some or I expected. I do think as time goes by they’ll fix that problem.

      That’s about what I remember last time. If I remember right, part of the issue arises when you’re a bit undecided, because there’s not a good reason to lie blatantly to someone who knows what they want (risking AIs reputation) but there is plenty reason to convince you you don’t need Medicare for all if you’re not already considering it.

    People with dog shit for brains were never gonna vote the right way anyway. Instead of letting Fox News and Newsmax tell them to vote for Nazis, they’re gonna let ChatGPT tell them to vote for Nazis.

    I don’t really see this moving the needle much

    ChatGPT won’t make your gasoline or groceries any cheap cheaper.
