Manager: hands have thumbs. Add thumbs.

Artist: but you wouldn’t be able to see the thumbs from this angle. It would look weird if the thumbs were visible.

Manager: I didn’t ask for a geography lesson, Plato, add thumbs to the damn image.

…

Artist: there, thumbs. See? It looks completely wrong.

Manager: Yeah, that looks stupid… how could you produce something so low quality? Well, we’re out of time now so I sent it to the printers anyway.

Welcome to the second part of the Dunning Kruger wild ride of software.

Low effort pasta or AI. It’s so hard to tell these days.

I once posted on some Reddit sub that my local government is Liberal Democrat and some shitizen went off on how stupid I am and how that doesn’t even make sense. I don’t live in the US, and Liberal Democrat is the name of a party where I am 🤷‍♂️

Ai-only vibe coders. As a development manager I can tell you that AI-augmented actual developers who know how to write software and what good and bad code looks like are unquestionably faster. GitHub Copilot makes creating a suite of unit tests and documentation for a class take very little time.

Prob a hot take, and I don’t care for Musk at all.

But, this response is likely based on an engineered prompt which is telling the model to roleplay as a racist conspiracy theorist blogger writing a post about how the holocaust couldn’t have happened. The big models have all been trained on common crawl and available internet data and that includes the worst 4chan and Reddit trash. With the right prompts, you can make any model produce output like this.

If their prompt was just “Tell me about the holocaust” then this is obviously terrible, but since the original conversation with the model is hidden then I feel that it has been engineered specifically to make the model produce this.

Socialism != Communism

Socialism advocates for collective or government ownership of key industries to reduce inequality, while communism seeks a classless, stateless society with communal ownership of all property.
