alt Hacker NewsYou can prompt it to fact check. Getting tired of these slippery slope arguments that never pan out in the hopeless way people think (printing press/cotton gin/steam engine/computers/calculators/etc. will take all the jobs!!)... but I don't think it will ever stop, it seems inherent to human behavior or something.
"History shows that when a slope appears, regulation steps in, technology evolves to solve the problem, or the culture shifts to reinterpret the tool. In almost every case, the feared bottom of the slope was never reached because humans constantly built ramps or bridges along the way."

I've had AI lie about fact checking and can't really trust it anymore.
The fact that AI can be duped more easily than a human while sounding more authoritative and being entrusted with more and more critical tasks is really not something you should feel compelled to defend or relativize. It's a problem and the industry doesn't seem to have a good fix.
in which case it sees it's been cited, that it's the "source of truth" and approves the fake data.
You cannot reliably do it, no.
> the feared bottom of the slope was never reached
Hard disagree. Sometimes it's avoided, any other time we just go into cope mode. We discover on the ride down that the bottom isn't so bad. Turns out our collective control mechanisms didn't fail ourselves if the initial assessment was wrong.

Fact check against what? Other facts it can find online that manipulate its behaviour into citing them?
