@catsalad@infosec.exchange isn't chatgpt literally pronounced the same as "cat i farted" in french or something?

@catsalad no drake.

@catsalad @dpnash @benteg

whilst I've not discussed technical stuff with a cat (I don't even have one of my own, but a neighbours ginger tom regularly visits), we sit and meow together both indoors and out in the street, in full view of the neighbours, which makes far more sense than any AI

Cat's probably like "why are you still running Frogspawn?"

[catboycody@tech.lgbt]

@catsalad Does a large plush cat count? Have one sitting on my desk and after hours of discussions with Rust's borrow checker, I had to rest my face in it and scream internally...

@dpnash @benteg @catsalad I'm still from the pre-rubber duck generation, when you would bother a colleague with your problem and it was called "Debugging by Confession."

[lordcaramac@discordian.social]

@catsalad Murp? Me-eh-ow.

[clickhere@mastodon.ie]

@catsalad There's no comparison.

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@dpnash @benteg @catsalad If I didn't know any better, you've gone crazy and started speaking gibberish. Don't worry. we all do it.

So I asked AI and it hallucinated
So I asked my cat, she meowed and quoted citations

"So i asked __ and pretended __ responded to my question with a reply that made sense"

[spjames@infosec.exchange]

@catsalad I overheard a colleague having a conversation with an LLM, behaving as if it understood what was said to it. Ridiculous!

Went home and told the dog. We had a good laugh about it.

@mrgrumpymonkey @benteg @catsalad Spending all day trying to get AWS Ridiculously Named Cloud Thing to do what you need it to do is enough to get anyone speaking gibberish.

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@dpnash @benteg @catsalad I don't use AWS, but I know someone who does. So, sometimes I get to listen to the jargon. As one who's worked as an IT Consultant, sometimes we'd just end up talking nerdy to each other, while everyone who was less technical would look at us in utter confusion. I, also, talk to my cat when I'm trying to figure out a problem. They help so much.

@catsalad Well, I asked my supervisor, and she said: "you FOOL! The core is undergoing a total meltdown! You've doomed us all!"

Simian:

“So we’re staring down the oiligarchs financing the far right everywhere, and we all know how much compassion fascism has for an old man whose first programs were SNOBOL on punch cards. And the tech wing of this looming darkness is about to determine whether the worldwide market for labour contracts by 35-75%, and whether that implodes their revenues giving us a Dead Economy, and…”

Sssshing! (claws out)
