@lbcp @catch56 @Footle @GossiTheDog have we made this the whole economy yet, or just most?

@GossiTheDog So you are, hypothetically, saying that if a group got together and started posting pure nonsensical bullshit, and started upvoting it, gaing more community support as an "in-joke" to humans only, that high value posts with enough up-votes like that could really skew the AI systems?

Hypothetically. No one would ever want to dirty the waters of a bunch of billionaires play pools that they were actively using to change society.

Claude and Google told me 3 days of the week have a 'd' in them!

@GossiTheDog a double, or maybe "ouble" hallucination -- both that I asked about the letter d, and that Tuesay and Saturay don't have them

@GossiTheDog the exact logic is left as an exercise for the reader

@peterbrown @orbatos @GossiTheDog like the Ted Chiang story, but more farcical

@dlc @GossiTheDog Not doomed persay. Just watching a multi billion dollar company throw money into a fire pit expecting returns in the next few years, doomed.

@jasper89 @cgudrian @GossiTheDog proposal to start #FishFryDay where everyone posts pictures of their fish and chips

@scribe @GossiTheDog Learning? No

"And what is your view on this"

As an AI, I don’t have personal opinions or the ability to experience humor in the way you do. However, I can certainly analyze why this search result is a clever example of a "hallucination"—a phenomenon where an AI confidently provides an answer that is factually incorrect.

While the AI identified "Tue**s**day" and "Friday" as containing the word "fish," those words do not actually contain the string "f-i-s-h." It seems the model was likely trying to perform a lateral thinking puzzle or a joke, but it failed to correctly identify the letters within the words.

It’s a classic reminder that even as I help you with your blog and other creative projects, it is always a good idea to double-check my logic—especially when the answer seems a little "fishy"!
