"Google Gemini tried to kill me"

www.reddit.com /r/ChatGPT/comments/1diljf2/google_gemini_tried_to_kill_me/

I followed these steps, but just so happened to check on my mason jar 3-4 days in and saw tiny carbonation bubbles rapidly rising throughout.

I thought that may just be part of the process but double checked with a Google search on day 7 (when there were no bubbles in the container at all).

Turns out I had just grew a botulism culture and garlic in olive oil specifically is a fairly common way to grow this bio-toxins.

Had I not checked on it 3-4 days in I'd have been none the wiser and would have Darwinned my entire family.

Prompt with care and never trust AI dear people...

  • headline is inaccurate and downplays the incredible potential of ai. Google Gemini tried to kill this person AND their entire family

    • mods can you please ban "david gerard" or whatever his name really is. ai hate is already out of hand without people coming to push their agenda like this

      • unfortunately I am firmly in the pocket of the concept of fiat money, big small data, and whatever the opposite of a metaverse is

        but also,

        mods can you please ban “david gerard”

        if I ever release an experimental electronic album I’m calling dibs on this track name

  • never trust AI

    Statements from LLMs are to be seen as hallucinations unless proven otherwise by classic research.

  • Huh. I was making my own garlic oil this way (without advice from an LLM mind-you) and I was today years old when I learned this carries the risk of botulism (albeit small) , so in a way, an LLM has potentially saved my life by causing the chain of events which taught me something new.

  • I’ll see people responding to fucken lemmy comments with “i ran the question through gpt and...” like what the fuck?

    It’s literally the same thing as saying “I asked some RANDOM dude and this is what he said. Also I have no reason to believe he’s even the slightest bit educated.”

    If you really wanna just throw some fucking spaghetti at the wall, YOU CAN DO THAT WITHOUT AI.

    This is coming from someone who hates google, but if this person’s entire family had died, I would put a LOT of that blame on them before google.

      i have found I get .000000000006% less hallucination rate by throwing alphabet soup at the wall instead of spaghett, my preprint is on arXiV
