    True, but the lack of an appropriate amount of negativity from the chatbots is one reason some people prefer humans over LLMs.

    This is probably why stupid people like LLMs so much, too. It’ll tell them that they are right when every human capable of rational thought would tell them that they are an idiot. LLM chatbots are effectively just individualized echo chambers.

    Or put another way, people would rather retreat into a fantasy world than deal with reality.

    Yeah

    Reddit and similar like Lemmy are full of smart dumb people. Like you can tell them why they’re wrong and they’ll respond explaining why thet weren’t even when they were. They’re smart enough to justify their own stupidity.

    They’re the same people that respond when you were sure the conversation was over.

    Negativity in social media? Where are you finding that??? Nowhere, that’s where! You actually thought people online were negative? That’s so stupid! You’re stupid for thinking it! You probably have ugly unwanted genitals! Nobody loves you. Nobody loves anybody! Nobody is loved. We’re all going to die alone, because you’re stupid. Hey everybody! Let’s all laugh at the big stupid idiot over here! Ha ha ha! They think the internet is full of negativity! What a crazy person!

    (Just in case you can’t tell, I’m being sarcastic and absurdist for the purposes of comedy. I don’t mean anything I just said.)

    The chain of events is likely not starting with social media. But I’m sure what you are saying is true for a certain small percentage of people.

    Especially since AI has a history of being people pleasing.

    • But they have a filter tho…

      If you see some LLMs with a “thought process” thing, you can see that they filter out any that “sounds negative” so it makes the response more pleasing to the end user…

    no, people prefer to talk to LLMs because they lack a sense of control in their lives and seek out that control in other ways.

    much the same way some men prefer to only fuck sex dolls and others going a step further to marry sex dolls.

    Likely a major reason why Stack Overflow has suffered so catastrophically since LLMs got good.
