Google AI Overview

Yes, some universities have a tradition of including a "snake fight" portion in thesis defenses, where students fight one of the university's snakes. The quality of the student's thesis determines the size of the snake they must fight, with better theses resulting in smaller snakes. After the committee reads the thesis, they tell the snake master how good it is, who then chooses the snake. In some northern European countries, an external examiner called the "opponent" fights the snake on the student's behalf, with the opponent's skill level based on the thesis's quality.

i hate you generative "ai", i hate you "ai" chat-bot that never understands a question and keeps you in a loop without connecting you to a representative, i hate you "ai" replacements for normal interactions and behavior, i hate you "ai" that's been made by techbros with the intent to make more money instead of actually helping people and systems that could benefit from the technology

Since I'm failing miserably to update the AU's summary, I made this post with an even shorter summary for those who still struggle to understand what the hell is going on xD, so I hope this will be helpful 💛

I just added the most crucial stuff involved to the protagonists, but there's more you can read in the 👉 extended summary 👈 (there are some tiny things that I must change in that post, but the main plot remains the same).

If you still have questions about the story you can always send your questions in the ask box 📬

search engines are hot garbage now, exhibit 455:

So I was wondering about the effects of testosterone on ear wax. (for unnecessary context, i recently started hrt)

I know that the HRT they're talking about is cis women taking estrogen to offset the reduced production during menopause. It's meant to This result here implies that maintaining your estrogen levels would cause itchy ears, which doesn't make a lot of sense.

The "..." is a bit suspicious, isnt it? Let's see the whole context.

Well would you look at that, it's the exact opposite. So where does the second part come from?

Outstanding, truly.

It combines two unrelated parts of the article, which said essentially the same thing, into saying the opposite.

And here's a little visual:

Green are the used sentences, red is removed vital context, and grey is the stuff in between that gets ignored. (There's more above and below this part, it makes up about half of the article.)

And this is why you shouldn't trust any fucking AI summaries.

also remember that i was looking for the effects of testosterone lol

I still hate AI.

And I’m big mad that I can’t turn off the AI summaries for Google results.

But I do like this better than the canon we have so far:

Image summary: An AI overview that includes the information that, after he was exposed to radiation and incapacitated, Captain Pike was later freed from Talos IV experimentation by Captain Kirk and his crew.

i fucking hate that those little dropdown things on google search now show AI overviews first I DONT WANT TO HEAR FROM BUTTCHUG 9000 KILL YOURSELF. NOW

Randomly ranting about AI.

The thing that’s so fucking frustrating to me when it comes to chat ai bots and the amount of people that use those platforms for whatever godamn reason, whether it be to engage with the bots or make them, is that they’ll complain that reading/creating fanfic is cringe or they don’t like reader-inserts or roleplaying with others in fandom spaces. Yet the very bots they’re using are mimicking the same methods they complain about as a base to create spaces for people to interact with characters they like. Where do you think the bots learned to respond like that? Why do you think you have to “train” AI to tailor responses you’re more inclined to like? It’s actively ripping off of your creativity and ideas, even if you don’t write, you are taking control of the scenario you want to reenact, the same things writers do in general.

Some people literally take ideas that you find from fics online, word for word bar for bar, taking from individuals who have the capacity to think with their brains and imagination, and they’ll put it into the damn ai summary, and then put it on a separate platform for others so they can rummage through mediocre responses that lack human emotion and sensuality. Not only are the chat bots a problem, AI being in writing software and platforms too are another thing. AI shouldn’t be anywhere near the arts, because ultimately all it does is copy and mimic other people’s creations under the guise of creating content for consumption. There’s nothing appealing or original or interesting about what AI does, but with how quickly people are getting used to being forced to used AI because it’s being put into everything we use and do, people don’t care enough to do the labor of reading and researching on their own, it’s all through ChatGPT and that’s intentional.

I shouldn’t have to manually turn off AI learning software on my phone or laptop or any device I use, and they make it difficult to do so. I shouldn’t have to code my own damn things just to avoid using it. Like when you really sit down and think about how much AI is in our day to day life especially when you compare the different of the frequency of AI usage from 2 years ago to now, it’s actually ridiculous how we can’t escape it, and it’s only causing more problems.

People’s attention spans are deteriorating, their capacity to come up with original ideas and to be invested in storytelling is going down the drain along with their media literacy. It hurts more than anything cause we really didn’t have to go into this direction in society, but of course rich people are more inclined to make sure everybody on the planet are mindless robots and take whatever mechanical slop is fucking thrown at them while repressing everything that has to deal with creativity and passion and human expression.

The frequency of AI and the fact that it’s literally everywhere and you can’t escape it is a symptom of late stage capitalism and ties to the rise of fascism as the corporations/individuals who create, manage, and distribute these AI systems could care less about the harmful biases that are fed into these systems. They also don’t care about the fact that the data centers that hold this technology need so much water and energy to manage it it’s ruining our ecosystems and speeding up climate change that will have us experience climate disasters like with what’s happening in Los Angeles as it burns.

I pray for the downfall and complete shutdown of all ai chat bot apps and websites. It’s not worth it, and the fact that there’s so many people using it without realizing the damage it’s causing it’s so frustrating.

Scans of the Brazilian magazine "Set" from March 2006. Despite the cover and main article of the mag being the TV shows that were revolutionizing the way of watching and making television at the time, like 24, Lost, CSI and The Simpsons, the focus here is on Harrison Ford and the movie Firewall.

There's an interview that addresses the issue of Ford's age and how he continues to make action movies. He mentions that he receives many scripts with characters that he believes are too old to play. There is a discussion about the accuracy of the technology shown in Firewall and how the filmmakers worked hard to ensure authenticity.

Ford talks about the physical work involved in the action scenes and how they are choreographed like a dance. He also mentions the technology on the set, with director Richard Loncraine being an enthusiast of wireless technology. The interview also highlights that the script for Firewall went through many changes, especially to validate the use of technology in the movie.

Harrison explains that he chose to act in Firewall because he thought the character was interesting and that the movie could be entertaining for audiences. He also talks about the changing audience, which is getting younger and younger.

And finally, Ford expresses his enthusiasm for reprising the role of Indiana Jones in a fourth movie, even though he acknowledges that the character has also aged. He highlights his privileged position of being able to choose his projects and make mistakes, mentioning that he tries to show his versatility in different genres, but recognizes that he is also a "product" and has a degree of independence in this process.

More mags here.

I hate this. Who asked for this. Stop it.

Would anybody be willing to share (real) screenshots of the Google AI overview saying something that is very off or untrue? I need some examples for a work teaching activity on the dangers of relying on generative AI in science.

Hey when did you first post carmechanic!vi anywhere? Because I found a 32 chapter fanfic with that concept on ao3 yesterday that was fully posted on new year's eve and feels kinda sus like AI? I no where near an expert in detecting AI writing, but it just gives this vibe and comments are disabled which I have never ever in my years of fanfic seen. Iike completely disabled, not that they have to be reviewed before they get posted.

I got this weird feeling that maybe someone stole your idea there idk, maybe it's nothing and I'm being paranoid idk

hi hi ! thanks for letting me know ! i mean tbh its not like car mechanic!aus are super special or uncommon, so i dont think that anyone specifically took the idea but i did run the first few paragraphs through an ai text detector and its like... 54% sure its ai generated so who knows tbh.

either way lmao it doesn't really effect me -- i dont really x-post to ao3 unless its a really big fic (figure eights will go up next weekend after its all on tumblr)

thanks so much for watching out for me and for ficwriters in general! idk if theres anything that can be done about ai generated fics but just try not to engage if possible? u_u
