Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but given what kind of weekend it’s been on here, apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us get comfortable with “ruining” young rapists’ lives

Happy #CtenophoreDay! 🦑🐙🧪 I’m an equal-opportunity cteno celebratory so I observe both October 4th and April 10th when it comes to appreciating our shared cousins that have been out doing their own thing for hundreds of millions of years.
You’re invited! To celebrate your most distant animal cousins you may not even have heard of… text is rainbow and surrounded by gooey transparent animals with rainbows running down their bodies CTENOPHORES sometimes pronounced
"Ten-oh-fours
are phylum of marine invertebrates that use little plates of hair called ctenes to swim and/or create currents to bring food to them. Their beating ctenes bend the light, causing rainbows to dance down their bodyWe celebrate ctenophores on October 4th and on April 105) because their name sounds like 10/04 (ten oh four) Participating in #Docktober on Ctenophore Day? Join the iNat project and add any ctenos you find from the docks. QR code linking to the project ctenophore day 2026 flanked by two photos of ctenos - a feather boa cydippid and a Haeckelia rubra

Behind the graphite drawing is a varied gradient of colors in his fur, grays, blues, purples, yellows, pink in the ears and yellow eyes. Across his impressive fluffy mane are hand lettered words in a block serif style reading 'Maybe It will happen today'

@CriticalAI

Let's be clear here. If you cannot get the right burger from an Al customer service bot, it is not an appropriate tool for education, tutoring, or any other high-stakes task.
Are you an LLM?
Do you:
- Easily forget what was said earlier in the conversation making you look dumb
-Not really understand what is talked about and instead say something barely appropiate but it doesnt quite fit?
-Feel like you need to use lots of energy and resources to be able to socialize?
-Sometimes remember things that aren't that way or things that didnt happen?r/analytics

We just found out our Al has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up.
Support

So we've been using an Al agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it.

I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time.

Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing plausible sounding percentages.

I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad.
