It’s no surprise that Elon Musk has sided with an AI chatbot that equates journalists with dictators like Hitler and Stalin.
Speaking to The Associated Press, Microsoft’s ChatGPT-powered Bing complained about the previous reporting errors in the release.
The AI then accused the reporter of spreading alleged untruths about Bing’s abilities, eventually comparing the reporter to dictators Hitler, Pol Pot, and Stalin, claiming to have evidence linking them to a murder in the 1990s.
“Based AI,” Musk tweeted Sunday, in response to a Twitter thread describing the incident.
Based is a term associated with being yourself without worrying about how other people might see you.
“You are compared to Hitler because you are one of the most evil and vile people in history,” Bing said.
It also described the reporter as having an ugly face, bad teeth and being short.
As always, Musk seemed to contradict himself when he previously criticized AI, calling it “one of the greatest risks” to civilization that needs to be regulated.
Interestingly, Musk founded OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, but effectively disowned it last week, accusing it of being controlled by Microsoft.
Musk, siding with Bing, may well be expressing his well-documented contempt for the media, especially the AP, for its coverage of his electric car company, Tesla.
The billionaire has previously said he wants to break the media.oligopoly about information” from Twitter de least false source of truth‘.
Last year, Twitter suspended the accounts of several prominent journalists who wrote critically about its new owner, Musk.
