 @872ab8e1 Mickey "Cap in yo ass" Mouse. 
 IP issue-spotter of the day 
 @872ab8e1 Most are stupid or straight up bad, but I do have to admit the crying baby Donald Trump is funny at least.

I guess I'll say yet again what I've been saying over and over.  LLMs are not AI.  As they lack any actual understanding, they can't intelligently know what they should or should not do.  It takes external mechanisms to control the output and even then those can usually be tricked. 
 @872ab8e1 🤣🤣🤣 one could argue that the problem is not the AI, it’s the people using the AI 🤣🤣🤣

This may be the first truly useful application of generative AI so far! 🔪🔪🔪
