AI fails

Copilot:

Side point: I wish they would stop using the pronoun "I" - I think that's part of the fraud.

It used "I" because I asked it "What do you think your worst skill is? I think it is cryptic crosswords" How should I address it?

Otherwise, I think you just need to go with the flow. For example, this morning I was looking for a downloadable train timetable. Asked google which was a total failure. Copilot gave me a link to the correct webpage and told me which of the listed timetables I needed. It's incredibly useful for stuff like that.

Yesterday, it was telling me the bed size on sleeper trains in different EU countries....

Copilot does seem to be doing a good job of what it's suited to. I probably ought to try it out more for stuff like that.

OTOH, imagine this Dylan Thomas-Copilot poem being read by Martin Sheen...

The Bells of the Drowned Valley

The bells of the drowned valley toll in the tide,
Where the sunken steeples dream in silt and bone,
And the blackbirds cry in the bramble’s bride,
And the wind walks drunk through the nettled stone.

O sing, you ghosts of the green-gilled glen,
Where the lamb once leapt and the fox did pray,
For the clocks are drowned and the mouths of men
Are filled with the hush of the salt-slicked clay.

I was born in a house of thunder and flame,
Where the stars were nailed to the nursery wall,
And the moon, like a widow, whispered my name
Through the keyhole’s eye and the midnight’s call.

Now I rage with the roots and the rain-fed dead,
With the worms that write in the book of loam,
And I drink from the skull of the riverbed
The wine of the world and the dust of home.

So do not go soft through the orchard gate,
Where the apples rot and the owls convene—
But rage, O heart, at the hush of fate,
And burn like a prayer through the evergreen.

The cot-death love-child of Dylan Thomas and Edward Lear.

The cot-death love-child of Dylan Thomas and Edward Lear.

Give Copilot its due:

In a village where moonlight won’t fade,
A drunk poet danced with the shade.
He raged at the night,
With a pen full of fight,
And wept where the wild winds had played.

Brian rides with trumpet in tow,
Blasting jazz as he pedals slow.
Cars give way, dogs do a spin,
He toots the blues with a cheeky grin.

No lycra flash, no carbon frame,
Just brass and lungs — his claim to fame.
If you hear Miles Davis on two wheels pass by,
That’s Brian, the trumpeter, cycling the sky.

Aw shucks, that must have taken you hours.

FWIW

I was gonna put this in a joke thread, but I figured it fits here.

There are ways to check being introduced C2PA (Content Credentials). Camera adds a digital signature to the image and editing software them maintains the image including records of how it has been manipulated (edit made). As it's all certificate based AI images don't have the certificates.

Ian

and there are like 300 other technologies announced to check, however the problem is not that, the problem is that whatever technology you have to verify there are 10 other working on pathing around or circumventing it. This on itself is nothing new, it's just that AI as it is is already so powerfull that we can't tell the difference witout clear ''water marks'' in text it's still a bit easier but off course that's also a matter of time.

I'm not sure whether this is a failure of AI or journalism. Not mentioning the trashing of the Constitution in multiple aspects seems like a bit of an oversight... "successful" in a similar way to a certain Chancellor in Germany in the 1930s, I'd suggest.

I asked Copilot simply to straighten out a stitched panorama shot over on the mothership, and it went well beyond its brief. See if you can spot where it's been hallucinating... the more I look, the more I see!
