btw, it has no idea if you said something smart, these things are specifically instructed to kiss maximum ass.

Not really something smart so much as something consistent. I think there are far too many people with no introspection on their harmful views as it is, and AI confirming their biases is inherently dangerous. Especially because the default tone they chose for every model appears to be picked to speak directly to this specific type of person in the exact way it shouldn't.

"You've hit the nail on the head!"

For all my non-english speaking bros

LOL it did take me a sec, like "You WERE smart but AI lobotomizes you." ๐Ÿ˜‚

This depiction is not what the idiom means though, when you take it literally.

[-] huppakee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Actually i think in English you say you hit the nail on the head, so if you take it literally you can pick any head you like. In Dutch you'd say you hit a nail on it's head which is much clearer to someone who takes it literally.

Not really, the specification of "the head" would refer to the head of the nail in the context of the idiom, because that's the only thing in the idiom with a head so it's the only head it can refer to.

[-] huppakee@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

But if you take it literally it can be any head you see right, because you're not seeing it within the scope of the idiom but the scope of your direct surrounding? Otherwise nvm, i'm not a native speaker so whatever.

No, you're right. It's just English being funny and context dependant. You can easily misread things by mistake. That's how a lot of puns and jokes work

It seems to me that companies are deliberately making their AIs stupid to consumers so that they don't give very sensible advice when necessary, for example.

[-] WanderingThoughts@europe.pub 5 points 3 hours ago

No, it's money. Running a smart AI uses much more resources, so they're trying to keep consumer AI as cheap and dumb as they can get away with and put the smarter answers behind a paywall.

I heard something like OpenAI (or Anthropic?) tweaked one of their AI's to do well on a certain benchmark test and while they did have the highest score they couldn't publish the model because it used like $20,000 in electricity alone to make sure it's answer was correct.

The answer was probably something like:

".........Yes! You do need eggs to make an omelet!"
