I cannot imagine someone not being VERY sure how to vote in this next American election.
How do they walk around with so little awareness of reality?
I only trust 1/3 of USAmericans to show up, the other 2/3 have disappointed me too many times already to expect anything of them
Lemme guess. Blue no matter who?
…never stop proving you are the stupidest fucking people in the whole world america
At least they’re not asking grok.
ugh. but they probably are, aren’t they?
gRoK iS tHiS tRuE?
God, these people are not capable of rational thought.
For anybody looking for a good resource: Ballotpedia is pretty good
They are also asking AI to do their grocery list. As i had the pleasure of learning just recently on reddit, when this was posted there.
how does that even work?
like isn’t giving it the inputs of your groceries the same thing as making the list yourself?
or is more like they say ‘i want to cook tandoori chicken this week’ and it just pulls from a generic recipe the ingredients list?
I have no idea. I got downvoted and some dude kept accusing me of “trying to win a discussion” and tell me that he “doesn’t understand my garbage arguments”.
yeah there are a lot of weirdos on here like that, basically just endlessly accuse you of doing what they are doing and are caught in their own little weird loop of projection.
Facebook in one ear and chatgpt in the other. We are doomed.
What could possibly go wrong.
That’s so smart. You don’t have to do any thinking. Pretty soon all thought will be eliminated and AI can tell us how to do everything from how to tie our shoes to how to structure our society. That way we just do what we’re told and can be ruled by a handful of billionaires. Smart. /S
I actually don’t hate this concept as long as you verify (don’t blindly trust) all the info it gives you.
The reason I say this?
Many local races, especially in “purple” areas can be super ambiguous. Candidates will circulate mailers and ads painting themselves as “pro economy, pro schools, and pro puppy” because they are trying to be vanilla AF and appeal to everyone. Their websites often list a few generic issues and that’s it.
AI might actually be useful to summarize major issues, actions, and voting record of the incumbent while collating information about a challenger candidate from other sources.
Local TV tends to be dogshit at their coverage of candidates actual plans and positions but you could also try that, if all else fails. Or maybe find a YouTube video of a debate (if there is one for the office in question) and have the AI give you a bullet point summary.
Everyone thinks they’ve verified what they were told, I’ve even seen people paste text from whatever website saying it supports their point when really it just has similar keywords. Your brain is very use it or lose it, and when you export research and thinking to AI your ability to do either drops.
or, you know, manipulate the results so that the pro-ai/ceo candidate is shown to be more appealing no matter what the actual situation of the conversation or facts are.
“oh no, sorry I was hallucinating”
I’ll admit I am a little stumped myself. Do I vote against republicans early or wait until voting day? What’s going to be harder for them to steal?
Early in person voting tends to be the safest bet
We’re seriously fuckin’ doomed, as a species. All the morons are outsourcing their decision making to people who’ve learned to game the system exclusively for profit.
It really is nightmarish. I don’t know how else to say it. Something’s gotta give, but I’m afraid it’s not going to.
I’ll play devil’s advocate here and say that for people who use AI to make this decision, it’s going to make them decide better.
If you are the type of person who has to ask an AI this question, you probably aren’t capable of making a good decision on your own. In that sense, I agree with you.
That being said, LLMs are being manipulated by billionaires to protect the system that keeps them rich and powerful. They will give bad advice by design.
