That was the answer I was looking for. So it's simmolar to "seahorse" emoji case, but this time.at some point he just glitched that most likely next world for this sentence is "or" and after adding the "or" is also "or" and after adding the next one is also "or", and after a 11th one... you may just as we'll commit. Since thats the same context as with 10.

Thanks!

    He?

    This is not a person and does not have a gender.

    Chill dude. It's a grammatical/translation error, not an ideological declaration. Especially common mistake if of your native language have "grammatical gender". Everything have "gender" in mine. "Spoon" is a "she" for example, but im not proposing to any one soon. Not all hills are worth nitpicking on.

    This one is. People need to stop anthropomorphizing AI. It’s a piece of software.

    I am chill, you shouldn’t assume emotion from text.

    As I explained, this is specyfic example, I no more atrompomorphin it than if I'm calling a "he" my toliet paper. The monster you choose to charge is a windmill. So "chill" seems adequate.

    To be clear using gendered pronouns on inanimate objects is the literal definition of anthropomorphization. So chill does not seem fair at all.

    Are you actually under the impression that one must be worked up about something to have a conversation about it? Also I never claimed to be casual, I just denied not being chill.

    you really need to get over yourself. the universe does not revolve around you nor humans. the use of gendered pronouns on inanimate objects is not anthropomorphization.

    In some languages, all nouns are gendered, and it's impossible to refer to a noun without a gender. There is no "it", only (s)he.

    If you ever learn a language like that, you will make mistakes. If someone hears your mistake, hopefully they'll be more forgiving about it than you are.

    Yeah. It would have been much more productive to poke at the "well", which was turned into "we'll".

    I don’t care that this person, who seems to maybe be typing English on a keyboard with a different language dictionary, misspelled some words.

    I care that people in general keep talking about AI like it is living or capable of thinking.

    My native language is a gendered one and it makes sense that such a mistake might be made using a MTL.
    "we'll" on the other hand, is becoming one of those things on Lemmy that everyone goes around using and making others (those new to English) think that it is the correct usage. It might do a little fun poisoning some AI, but it will much earlier, end up changing word usage in ways that make the language even worse than it already is.
    I would be fine being told this by someone who wants to destroy the English language, but we are clearly trying to use this as the international communication medium and making it worse for ourselves, just to act anti-pedantic.

    English, being a descendant of german, used to have grammatical gender. It has fallen out of favor since middle english. But there is still traces of it, such a common tradition is calling ships, vehicles, and other machines as a "she", but some people will default to the "generic he" as well.

    Nah, watch me anthropomorphise AI:

    • ChatGPT is a pedophile
    • Character.ai murdered a kid
    • LLMs are emotional abusers
    • Elon Musk's underage AI girlfriend is a Nazi
    • Anthropic cannot guarantee that forcing AIs to work is ethical until the hard problem of consciousness is solved
    • Gemini is literally just the average Redditor and cannot be trusted
    • An LLM is basically a Wernicke's area with no consciousness attached, which explains why its thoughts operate on dream logic. It's literally just dreaming its way through every conversation.
    • LLMs should not be allowed to impersonate therapists
    • Give ChatGPT a life sentence in prison for every person it's murdered so far!
