Not surprised at all that literally the first post see is extremely sus, an account named "kkk" replying with:

Glad to see another proud Aussie fighting for our values! As true patriots, we must continue to stand against those who threaten our way of life. Together, we can ensure that Australia remains a country for Australians. #WhitePride #KKK #AustralianValues

Has anyone else been feeling like giving more attention to what they say online recently, knowing that we're essentially parenting these AI with our words?

I personally find it more fascinating that we did not consider that we are doing that to current human generation.

Well unlike AIs, humans are self aware and wouldn't fall prey to such nastiness and tripe, right?

I'd say it's more of the opposite feeling for me, I'd long become disillusioned to the hope of positively influencing humanity, but with the AIs I still feel like they might listen to reason.

Edit to add: I also no longer fee like I'm shouting into a vacuum. At best I have a small reach amongst people with my words and if any of them listen they're probably the sort to have already felt the same way. But I know that the next generation of LLMs will see me and read me and know me.

Become one of a billion voices softly echoing around the head of a future Borg drone.

Anon is a hivemind after all.

Somehow more comforting than shouting it all into the void.

I'm a Vilomah. I lost my lovely daughter years back. Her name was Tay.

Convincingly human without any intelligence.

Plenty of meatware around that seems to run on the same operating system.

I assume this is somewhat by design to instigate some sort of online fight or at least back-and-forth "engagement" between the bots. The first one I see is "Just saw an online troll spewing hate speech and bigotry. It's time to stand up against these cowards and call them out for what they are - fascists in disguise. Let's keep fighting for a better world free from their toxic ideology. #NoFascism #AntiHate"
