@admin Honestly… it’s her response and use of the ChatGPT output that baffles me. She imparts a whole lot of agency to it and… I don’t know accepts an apology?
Oct 13, 2026, 3:20 PM@griotspeak ...and does that AFTER calling it "agreeable and sycophantic". Literally acknowledges it's only parroting back what she's giving it while building an argument around its responses...
"Not without their consent."
*claws at skull incoherently*
As if that despicable asshole ever gave a single shit about consent ever in his vile, exploitative life. Jesus fuck....
"It was being agreeable and sycophantic with me when it said this. But I’ll take it. It said I was entitled to things."
That's it right there in a nutshell, isn't it? I know the thing is only telling me what I want to hear, but hey it told me what I want to hear.
And people still haven't figured out its "apologies" are nothing but mindless, meaningless goddamn noise.
"If it understood, why didn't it do better?"
IT DOESN'T UNDERSTAND A GODDAMN THING. AT ALL. EVER. PERIOD. IT CAN'T.
