A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I've never used Instagram, so I was spared, but this sounds like hell.

Reminds me of an anecdote I read a while back about a company that was training an LLM and wanted to make it less "sexy", but a programming error flipped the sign on the weight that was being applied during training. Trainers kept trying to penalize it but that was only encouraging it and the result was an extreme horndog AI.

Unfortunately they found the error and fixed it before ship.

Kinky little AI, indeed.
