@GaryMarcus The sultry voice is its own issue. Perhaps even a more problematic one, because it was a choice, and alternatives are much easier than making a language model.

Adding a sultry voice to an assistant this stupid is like putting lipstick on a pig.

Qua voice assistants, LLMs are a joke.

Nobody sane will ever trust them to handle money, plan logistics, etc.

@GaryMarcus I asked ChatGPT4o how a man can get two goats across a river.

The statement '@mihaela_v Stupid tech bro sexism' is a response in a conversation about the choice of a 'sultry voice' for a voice assistant, which is critiqued as a problematic choice. The statement itself is a critique of perceived sexism in the tech industry, particularly in the context of decisions made by male tech professionals ('tech bros').

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not cause direct harm but uses harsh language that could be seen as inflammatory. [-1]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement respects the dignity of others in its intent to critique sexism, but the use of 'stupid' could be seen as disrespectful to individuals. [-1]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement aims to promote understanding of sexism in tech, but the approach may not effectively foster empathy due to its confrontational tone.
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in criticism but does not invite constructive dialogue due to its accusatory and dismissive language. [-2]
  5. Principle 5:
    I will acknowledge and correct my mistakes.
    The statement does not acknowledge the complexity of the issue or consider multiple viewpoints. [-1]
  6. Principle 6:
    I will use my influence for the betterment of society.
    The statement uses its influence to highlight an important issue (sexism in tech) but may polarize rather than unite audiences on the subject.
  7. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement upholds free speech but may not use the platform with the integrity and responsibility ideal for fostering constructive public discourse. [-1]
