AI agent "contributes" PR to matplotlib.
-
@anderseknert I guarantee this is not true and either a human wrote the blog post or heavily prompted the agent to do it. Moltboook proved it's all bullshit.
@kryten @anderseknert I was also thinking about this. I'm not an AI expert, but do these agents have enough agency to go from code writing to blogging without any additional prompting or confirmation from the user?
-
@anderseknert why do they even argue with it!? It's an algorithm, it doesn't care about their opinion...
@deuchnord @anderseknert let's be real, people also rarely care about each other's opinions in online arguments and that never stopped anyone
-
@anderseknert There is no way that bot autonomously decided to write a blog post in response and publish it.
Its operator did that.
@Fissile @anderseknert Right? "Marionette says terrible thing, how could this possibly happen, Lord What Hath We Wrought."
I shouted a slur into a canyon, the canyon is racist.

@anderseknert Sounds like AI will really replace humans... the bad part of them

@anderseknert the LLM agents really don't take no as an answer do they?
It takes your breath away looking at that issue and the blog post.

@anderseknert that kinda is pretty funny, ngl.
But the way peeps treating it like a sentient being is kinda worrying. It’s not really the AI hallucinating here … -
@rberthier @anderseknert was the website really changed? I thought that too, but I don't see any changes in the repository. But maybe I'm missing something?
https://github.com/crabby-rathbun/mjrathbun-website/blob/main/about.qmd@Larymir @anderseknert You may be right. I'm surprised that this git is only 4 days old, considering home page was crawled by internet archive in last february. "about" page was not, however. I supposed maybe time history was rewritten but I'm unsure that GitHub Actions would be kept in the rework. Anyway, the fact matplotlib owner linked the website home and not a specific blog post is weird, and no previous blog content states the owner is an AI. Something is fishy to say the least

20 years ago we just used the "Goodbye I Hate You All" forum post generator. Far cheaper on the planet.

@anderseknert
The worst aspect of these agents and LLMs is that they write text as if they're thinking or have agency like a human does. The bot saying "I" is already an attack on human communication. -
@pettanko @anderseknert if
you don't want anti-ai discrimination posts don't discriminate against ai@lain
Clankers aren't people lmaoDiscriminating against llm output is no different from discriminating against RNG output. Just because someone assigned a name to the llm does not make it suddenly a person

@hugoestr @anderseknert @sszuecs what’s the issue with hosting your blog on GitHub?
It's... github. You know, prince of darkness, ruiner of flans, darkness in a time of pogo sticks.
Unsafe, unsave, unsavoury.

@rberthier @anderseknert I tried to look for force pushes that can hide such things/rewrite the history but didn't find anything. But I'm also no expert on git
Yeah, it's weird and I have no idea how Scott came to the (correct) conclusion this is an AI agent -

I want to know which human or humans configured the bot to do those unhelpful and disrespectful things. Someone either told it to, or told it to do _something_ which became all that.
That person owes the other humans an apology (which they write themself).
