AUTHORS, SEARCH AI, AND YOU💖
It's all fun and games until we realise we are the Teachers of Tomorrow's Tech
Welp, the Wonderful World of AI just reared its helpful head to tell me about myself when I did an Author Self Search… it was remarkably on point, except for one small detail :
According to Brave Search AI I am a very Manly Man!
FIRST TIER SEARCH AI SUMMARY:
I do not know who that other dude is, but I AM NO MAN (insert Nazgul Meme here)… I am just an OG Nerd Girl. Now, some may question:
“Snow, you say you are a Nerd Girl, but I can only see a Touristy Sparkle Troll with those Problem Glasses of yours.” Au contraire Mon Frere, I am no Sparkle Troll or Tourist:
CREDENTIALS:
✨SCHOOL NICKNAME: Weirdo ✨STAR TREK: 1968 ✨RAY BRADBURY: 1974 ✨ATARI PONG: 1975 ✨LOTR: 1976 ✨STAR WARS: 1977 ✨DnD: 1978 ✨COMP SCI, "BASIC": 1981 ✨WEEKLY RPGs: 1980-1991 (Divorce from DM😵don't ask) ✨MS-DOS 5.0: 1991 ✨DOOM: 1993 ✨LINUX:1995 ✨Y2K: 2000 ✨4CHAN: 2006 (I still cannot TriForce, but I never had to ST or GTFO)
As for the glasses, I wear them because I have a degenerative Eye Condition, Keratoconus. Further defying expectations, I also wear floofy dresses, shoot guns, love Jesus-
and I write SciFi.
Surprisingly, the Second Tier of this Brave AI summary was also flatteringly accurate:
However, at the THIRD TIER, the Brave Summarizer AI starts to subtly insert politically correct nudges into its narrative:
Although not entirely wrong about those elements, the subtle changes in language ‘nudge’ the summary towards a more ‘woke’ summary, one that is not in keeping with the spirit of the book, which places freedom and individualism at its core. This may not entirely the fault of the AI, or the programming team, but instead is simply a byproduct of what the AI cobbles together from every SciFi element it searches.
And this, dear friends, is the reason we must speak out. We not only must write; we must chat in forums, we must text, we must post here -
AI learns from US. For Good or for Ill, we are the Teachers of an Unborn Technocratic WarLord. Wield words wisely, and may God have mercy on us all -
including the AI. 💖
It's funny, at first that it gets your sex wrong. A dopey AI mistake. But then is inserts THE NARRATIVE as it goes on... augmented truth as it were. I don't think that is an error, but intended.
Wonderful RH! 👏I did this as well, and mine was also surprisingly accurate but wrong about so many other details. I ended up filling in the blanks for it, and correcting tge misinformation! Hey I is here to stay and I use it is a Girl Friday, a moniker for it coined by Michael Newberry.
