His wife is going to leave him, and he will have no idea why.
He will ask ChatGPT and it will give him an answer
"Tremendous observation! You were right to try to be better as a father with the help of AI. You did nothing wrong."
Probably.
Having to use AI daily I'm curious if I'm rare in this respect.
Do other people also hate the fact that the responses are modelled in a way that are basically sucking you off?
Then when you challenge a response (they lie so goddamn much) they suck you off even more.
I'm stuck using Copilot for work, and for 3-4 months I began every prompt with 'Do not comment or offer an opinion on my query' and eventually Copilot stopped with the sycophancy.
Now I'm actively working on deprogramming myself of the notion of speaking to it as a human and making a point to treat it like an old-school MS-DOS ish OS and give it commands instead of being conversational, because it's important to remember that this fucking thing is a computer program.
And I think he wouldn't even care. I mean he's himself actively making an effort to get out of the relationship and replace himself by an AI. At that point it doesn't even matter if he's doing it, she's doing it and whether the replacement is made up of flesh and bones or electricity. He's dispensable.
Don’t worry. He’ll be able to create a sycophant AI wife shortly after
Parenting hits different when you work in AI
Yeah, hits like mental abuse.
I knew people were gonna be obsessed with AI, but I genuinely never thought people would surrender all executive function and thought to what is, ultimately, a very elaborate and planet destroying if=then machine.
the amount of people I have seen becoming totally dependent on it is ridiculous. There are people who cant even have human interaction anymore without running it through their AI model to process the message, and produce a reply.
and its 100% invading the real world too, I dont know the whole details cause you try to turn your ears off at the pharmacy to not hear other peoples private information.. but there was a woman getting very heated with one of the pharmacy people and I only took notice when she slammed her phone on the counter, aggressively pointed at it, and said very loudly "I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY, LOOK, RIGHT HERE, MY AI SAYS YOU'RE WRONG" in a that kareny way that says her and her AI was 100% wrong.
Brought to you by the creators of, "just give them an ipad" and "call the cops there's a kid outside playing"
Parenting hits different when your intelligence is artificial
Me: "Why dont you come visit and talk to me in the nursing home?"
My kids: "just talk to grok"
I'm sure there is a good few older people who would find a lot of comfort in Groks world view.
I have a few friends who use OpenAI and Gemini to do this (generate new stories every night) and I do not understand why you would do so. There are a bazillion kids books out there. Just get ten of those and your kid will be happy for ten months!
Or you could make a story up 😄
Or tell a story of your wild & sordid youth & make it sound made up.
Ten? They'll fixate on one that'll you'll need to read so often that you don't need the actual book anymore
there is so lovely media out there… often artists/storywriters who are parents themselves. there is no other niche that I know of where you can feel the love they put in in so many works. This makes me almost want to have kids. Well or at least become a children’s book author lol
I thought this was satire, but it appears to be real.



I'm so glad AI is here to relieve me of the physically and mentally overwhelming task of checks notes spending time with my child.
More time left for what truly matters: creating shareholder value
Parenting hits really different when you’re an idiot and a sociopath.
Alvin there doesn’t want to bother talking to his child.
That poor kid, Imagine your own father thinks so little of you that he would rather spend 10X the time to train a clanker just so he doesn't have to spend time with you.
I'm guessing some day he will be one of those oblivious assholes on facebook whining because his kids cut off contact.
"Dad, do you want to play catch?"
"Who are you? Oh, ohhhh...Best I can do is get one of those dog ball throwing machine things!"
That's not true. My father was a terrible parent and that was decades ago. Tech Bros. think they invented bad parenting now.
I saw this on Reddit and saw everyone taking it seriously and thought "Ha, the lack reading literacy on this site is insane".
But you guys are doing the same thing.
This is a parody guys. Calm down.
This is a parody guys. Calm down.
How are those of us who aren't chronically online supposed to know some douche on Twitter is a parody account or not?
Because people like this guy literally exist in real life.
Poe's law teaches us that any satire, sufficiently advanced, is indistinguishable from sincerity.
The effectiveness of clever on other people is highly contingent on outside factors, over which you have no control and of which you may not have any knowledge; i.e., just because you intended to be clever doesn’t mean you will be perceived as clever, for all sorts of reasons.
The failure mode of clever is “asshole.”
Man, I feel kinda sorry for that guy. He must have had terrible parents, if he perceives story time as a chore instead of an opportunity to bond with your child. He should probably get some professional help to work through his horrible childhood. Though his next tweet would probably be „I‘ve replaced my therapist with an AI and now I‘m even more confident that everyone else is wrong!“
I know this is about the AI but the unaddressed elephant in the room is that people romanticize the idea of having children and realizing it's not what they expected or really wanted. Society constantly puts pressure on people having kids.
I know people who would die to have children so they can see them become successful well adjusted adults. Those people can have kids.
I also know people who dont want to have kids. They dont have to.
I also also know people who really want kids, but in the way a person would want a dog, so they can train it to be good, hit it when its bad, and itll never be older than 3 years because they havent thought that far ahead. These people should be sterilized.
Same

This is ragebait. Right? People can't possibly be that shitty...
As a parent who interacts with other parents, I can assure you some are.
Siri, play Cats in the Cradle
Fucking loser.
So will the divorce bud.
I don't believe that man has ever touched a fellow human enough to marry, let alone procreate
The setting he chooses, his wife asking him to do a basic parenting activity which he should want to do anyway, speaks volumes
So this dude works in AI but can't read?
He doesn’t need to read, the LLM does the reading
/s (kind of)
Oh. A future dad who will wonder why his kid never visits or even calls. I feel like I have seen this play out a hundred times before, but now they can use "AI" as an excuse.
She should train a not-divorced-woman model
It will not only work for you, but will play and love for you, too.
Fuck AI
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
