The lab described Gemini’s world as a “shared hallucination” among the agents, which is probably better than diverging hallucinations

"We reject your reality and substitute our own."

Why should we trust this bullshit with anything serious again?

Only the rubes trusted it. The rest of intelligent society has actively been warning people about this exact situation for decades.in books, in movies, in songs, and now memes.

What do you mean “again“? Were you ever foolish enough to trust it once?

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

I think they mean "remind me again why".

[–] brsrklf@jlai.lu 3 points 12 hours ago

I did. I personnally don't trust those glorified chatbots for anything.

Shouldn't it be the other way around?

I think it's meant as kind of a joke, but both are shit really.

Shared might indicate they're able to keep some level of consistency, but since it's only consistent in the way it produces bullshit, it's stil useless (and the worst part is it might be more convincing).
