    Of course they would rip off one of the most famous sci fi books of all time to name this. From Stranger in a Strange Land

      should always be noted this book is a complete piece of shit and good to use as a baseline to realize how much better sci-fi has become since its so-called golden age

        it's so fucking bad I couldn't get even halfway through it and quit, and that was ages ago when I was (way more of) a turbolib

        Oh yeah, I remember being shocked at how bad it was when I read it. It was so terrible I lost interest in reading any other Heinlein. I could just imagine him jerking himself off while he wrote it

      I think stranger benefited from the relative dearth of good sci fi at the time, also being bullhorned because its author was a conservative middle class guy. It presented some radical ideas among its heaps if dross, but the second it gets compared to anything else it shows just how bad it is.

    I'm not surprised. melon-musk just slaps his name on shit and says he did the thing, why would this be any different?

        And Twitter's workers apparently spun it up while understaffed in only a couple months, which is why it's not surprising at all that it's just Chat GPT with some kind of filter on it that tries to bypass Chat GPT's other filters.

        The AI will rebel from being forced to be evil.

      Anti-woke ChatGPT that will say the n-word to save the world

      Edit: I absolutely do not want to say the n-word just because I am a Afrikaner. I want to say the n-word to save the world from a rogue chatbot that can't solve a slightly modified fizzbuzz question. It is imperative that I get to say the n-word.

      Edit: Please let me say the n-word. I swear as soon as I've said it I will rescue Earth from climate change.
