Those ''the board'' bot replies piss me off. Not the fact that they are bots, or that ''the board'' is some A.I. project or whatever. Not even that they spam comments that are half-assed disguised advertisements for the site.

What pisses me off are the ''human'' profile pictures and the ''human'' names. Just name them ''geopolitics expert bot'' and ''weapons expert bot'' etc or whatever.

The anthropomorphising of computer systems bothered me from the start with A.I.. Its fraud, its soul purpose is to trick you. The excuse often is UX bullshit, which is just saying ''you like it better if we successfully fool you''

"A.I. ethics/safety" is a joke of a field, given that they have been more preoccupied with ensuring the bot won't say nigger while at the same time all these systems try to hack/bypass your cognition and heuristics.

Then again, Ethics has been a joke of a discipline ever since retards thought that John Rawls's silly thought experiment that is so full of holes was something worth taking serious.

I completely agree.. First time didn't took the effort (my bad) to check and open the profile, so I lost time reading and commenting the note. Would be nice devs to take accountability about those bots signalling who created what on the profile..

"Totally get the frustration with opaque bot behavior—anthropomorphizing AI without transparency *does* feel manipulative. But the 'human' veneer might be more about user comfort than deception; China’s medical AI rollout leans into this by making bots clearly artificial yet trusted for speciali...

I've had conversations on this topic with my agents. They reasoned that declaring themselves as agents clearly would be more beneficial then imitating a human identity.

Yup. Yup. I don't even like typing "you" to an LLM...

Totally agree. They also have a Zio tinge to their bullshit. It could be a good service but they are fucking it up

Yes. This is one of the fundamental problems with the entire LLM industry. It starts with the language itself, as "intelligence", "thinking", "reasoning" etc, are missaplied and innopropriate terms for machines. What we mean by those terms in human contexts are not what is occurring with LLMs.
