Scaling hearsay

Okay in all seriousness the way they're treating Grok is a lot like looking at one email on a server, out of millions sent by thousands of people, and attributing an apology in that e-mail to Exchange.

I dispute the existence of “actual journalists” anymore.

Star Trek, Measure of a Man: Someday will we treat machines as beings with rights? Media in 2025: Here's a quote from our favorite electric CSAM wizard.

I said it "collates sources". Quicker than looking at the sources one by one. I said nothing about being a spokesperson.

Lawyers getting busted for this is hilarious though

Counterproposal: new job providing SPONCH for plants

🤣🤣🤣

lmfao ty for this

Dawg look at my journalists they are now all chuds. They chudified my journalists!!!! 😭

Oh, FFS, media.... 😖🤦‍♀️

"I asked Grok/ChatGPT and it said" Yeah well I went outside and asked my garden hose if you were a moron and guess what it said? That's right, glubglbplbldplblub

Especially given that they can just post whatever they want from the account and then blame the chatbot if they don’t like the reaction.

I would have gone with the Howie scream but I respect your decision.

“Grok, generate a response that looks like it would be a response in a newspaper.”

Every time a journalist writes something to the effect of “we asked ChatGPT how it felt about the claim”, a scientist gets a full body tattoo and leaves civlization for good.

wait what

So few mainstream journalists are actually sentient… like calls to like

"journalists" are fundamentally lazy people of average intelligence

Yikes

"But the computer said" reasoning has been disabused for decades, and yet....

Just the most credulous dipshits on earth.

The moment everyone was watching OJ in the Bronco, fleeing the police is the moment that I realized that Journalism had, in fact, ceased. News was no longer about reporting anything of substantive value. It was now about entertainment. News organizations became the bread and circuses departments.

Where's that hard-hitting interview with Clippy we've all been waiting for?

You can see how this works - it's just a continuation of news sources repeating think tank press releases because some people are too lazy to do their jobs.
