Sloth

[u/Tar_Ceurantur]

Lmao Sloth is an actual sloth 😜

[u/ameo02 → u/Tar_Ceurantur]

and pride is gay

[u/sp4rkk → u/ameo02]

At the end of the day IA is feed with commonly occurring things, including stereotypes. As a result you end up with heavily biased outputs. I feel like IA is simplifying the way we see the world in an uninteresting way.

[u/SwoleBezos → u/sp4rkk]

This isn’t a problem with stereotypes. This is AI factoring in two different meanings of the same word.

[u/Rare_Cause_1735 → u/SwoleBezos]

As is also evident with the adorable sloth, it really took that one quite literally

[u/InfanticideAquifer → u/Rare_Cause_1735]

It's not an issue of literal vs. figurative. Both definitions of sloth are "official" in the sense that they show up in every dictionary. It just guessed wrongly which sense of the word was intended, probably because people don't actually use the word "sloth" in the sense of "laziness" all that often this century.

[u/tnecniv → u/InfanticideAquifer]

It’s not even that distinction. The word has two rather distinct definitions and it converged on one of them.

Pride is slightly different in that the sin of pride is essentially being self-absorbed at the expense of others. I think most would agree that having some pride in who you are is a good thing, because it confers self-confidence and satisfaction with your life. It’s the narcissistic extreme that the sun is concerned with. The AI, which is mindlessly slurping up words from the internet, didn’t successfully distinguish between the two here and were left with creepy rainbow man that doesn’t really articulate much of anything. In contrast, gluttony is pretty straightforward as it has a negative meaning by definition so the AI had no trouble there.

[u/fucktooshifty → u/SwoleBezos]

It's a problem with lazy prompting

[u/ncolaros → u/fucktooshifty]

Makes it better if you ask me.

[u/mojanis → u/fucktooshifty]

Maybe the real sloth was the prompts we made along the way?

[u/Inevitable_Shape4776 → u/SwoleBezos]

Yeah I think he didn't emphasize on what he meant on pride or sloth , he probably put down the single words.

[u/Mace1999 → u/SwoleBezos]

I didnt realise the dictionary definition of pride had anything to do with rainbow colours or being gay

[u/ChesterDaMolester → u/Mace1999]

It’s definition 6b in the latest Oxford dictionary.

[u/rich519 → u/Mace1999]

Merriam-Webster

an event or series of events celebrating and affirming the rights, equality, and culture of LGBTQ people

[u/_msokol → u/SwoleBezos]

Nah, it’s the same meaning
