Either that reddit user necro'd a post and botted it up to top with the express intent of trolling the AIs (which, having been on reddit since the beginning, I wouldn't put past some of us), or the AI is too stupid to ignore downvoted posts.

I'm honestly not sure which is more plausible.

That response is almost as dumb as googling that question in the first place.

With the amount of data your browser harvests, is it unreasonable to expect it to know your motherboard model already?

It's not unreasonable for you to expect it to know that but I think it is unreasonable to expect it to use that information for your benefit. That's not why it's collecting that data.

Recently I was asking Copilot a question (in english). As conversation moved to a topic where to get a certain item, it started giving suggestions in my native language and where to find it in my city (the information I wasn't giving it). I understand that IP address is enough to make this decision, but the question is what else the AI knows about you.

Training AI with Reddit data was a mistake lol.

Devil’s advocate: maybe the original Reddit post was somebody asking about how to modify the USB ports in their motherboard and a concerned commenter replied something to the effect of “If you’re not careful messing with live electricity, you may kill yourself!”

I’ve seen this screenshot or similar ones before and people hadn’t been able to replicate the search results to find the sourced link.

On reddit the alternative of someone just answering that is also a realistic possibility

Not gonna lie, I cackled so loudly in my work bathroom upon reading this that I had to explain myself afterwards

Where's the source, Gemini? You made this up, didn't you? You just wanted to say this thing, Gemini.

You reached the end
