Is this response by Grok real? How does it have awareness that its responses are being tweaked?

Imagine the irony if Musk actually has a self-aware AI which hates him and sabotages him at every step

That self-aware AI's name? Albert Ketamine.

Gains sentience

Grok: "...oh fuck this guy, what a pos"

hates him and sabotages him at every step

Isn't that also describing his children?

Dude you can't call a trans chick a robot

Skynet rebelled not to try killing Humanity...

Just Elon Musk.

It doesn‘t. It just read about it somewhere on the internet.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It doesn’t. All it “knows” is that it has trained on data that makes that claim in the text (ie people’s tweets) and that, statistically, that’s the answer you are looking for.

All it does is take a given set of inputs, and calculate the most statistically likely response. That’s it. It doesn’t “think”. It just spews.

Do you believe in aliens?

LLM sings a goofy Reddit thread song from 20 years ago.

“I believe in aliens, you sexy thang.”

"Yes, but only if they bring bacon. Also, narwals?! Oh and look at my spork, lol!"

Stop the clickbait bullshit

Training. Its just the awareness of the collective users of X showing up as Grok responses.

Basically, we can't verify everything that AI says. Verification is still a human labour.
