Someone needs to Chat CPS.
That man has kids?🤦♀️
One, through surrogacy. Did he ask AI to explain to him how to fill his little jizz cup?
God forbid he should have asked his parents. Or the kids nanny.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if lots of new parents are asking LLMs for advice.
And before AI (and probably still), new parents probably googled a lot of things.
And before internet search engines, new parents probably checked out books from libraries.
Parenting books were serious business, whole generations were raised with Dr Spock for instance, who had fucked up ideas about childrearing.
It’s one thing to ask for tips on getting a baby to sleep, it’s another to ask it for formula recipes. Unfortunately I doubt most parents know the line where it becomes dangerous, but I am hoping here.
before that it was Youtube, for certain things, which at least was somewhat helpful to niche questions.
Poor kid is doomed
Seeing as ChatGPT was trained on other peoples’ books, articles, etc., it’s not surprising he says that.
Kinda slimy that he probably couldn’t even give sources for his new-found child wisdom. Y’know, because ChatGPT is a glorified corporate piracy machine using stolen data and aggregating it for morons like him to read instead of doing a google search.
The AI hate is so weird, morons because we dont want to aggregate ourselves? The dangers are huge, the costs are ridiculous, the shareprice is bubbling. Its a heap of shit but your comment is just nonsense.
It is miles better to get aggregated information from multiple sources than read each source yourself. Consumers want convenience.
I don’t believe the idea of aggregating information is bad, moreso the ability to properly vet your sources yourself.
I don’t know what sources an AI chatbot could be pulling from. It could be a lot of sources, or it could be one source. Does it know which sources are reliable? Not really. AI has been infamous for hallucinating even with simple prompts.
Being able to independently check where your info comes from is an important part of stopping the spread of misinfo. AI can’t do that, and, in it’s current state, I wouldn’t want it to try.
Convenience is a rat race of cutting corners. What is convenient isn’t always what is best in the long run.
I’m not as anti AI as a lot of people here but trusting it with very important things is asking for trouble. It still randomly hallucinates and gives you bad info. Not as often as it used to but still not good enough to trust with your child’s health.
ChatGPT has taken my bread to the next level and helped me diagnose electronics problems way faster than I have figured out on my own, which is awesome. But it has also given me a blueberry muffin recipe with no wet ingredients and calculated bread hydration 10% too low. I can easily imagine a scenario where some tired parent asks it for a Motrin dose for an infant and gets a wildly wrong answer and injures their child.
Like many things, a tool is only as smart as the wielder. There’s still a ton of critical thinking that needs to happen as you do something as simple as bake bread. Using an AI tool to suggest ingredients can be useful from a creative perspective, but should not be assumed accurate at face value. Raisins and Dill? maybe ¯\(ツ)/¯, haven’t tried that one myself.
I like AI, for being able to add detail to things or act as a muse, but it cannot be trusted for anything important. This is why I’m ‘anti-AI’. Too many people (especially in leadership roles) see this tool as a solution for replacing expensive humans with something that ‘does the thinking’; but as we’ve seen elsewhere in this thread, AI CANT THINK. It only suggests items that are statistically likely to be next/near based on its input.
In the Security Operations space, we have a phrase “trust but verify”. For anything AI, I would use 'doubt, then verify" instead. That all said. AI might very well give you a pointer to the place to ask how much motrin an infant should get. Hopefully, that’s your local pediatrician.
Fairly based. If you verify the output by visiting trusted medical sites, you won’t need a doctor for many things. Learn to do it on your own, become a medic. You have a kid, don’t rely on others for its survival. Only in emergency should a professional be needed.
There, nuance.
That makes sense—being raised by ChatGPT might be marginally better than being raised by Sam Altman.
What a burn! Hahahahahah that was a good one!
That you, Sam?
Do you think I was being sarcastic? I was serious. That burn was awesome and it legitimately made me laugh lol

Somebody call CPS
I asked ChatGPT how Sam Altman would have taken care of his baby without the help of ChatGPT:
Sam Altman would’ve taken care of his baby the same way the rest of us did before his chatbot existed—by learning, asking, fumbling, caring, and figuring it out like a goddamn human.
Altman’s quote—“I don’t know how I would’ve done that”—feels less like a reflection on parenthood and more like an unintentional glimpse into the kind of disconnection that can happen when you believe your product is the answer to everything.
Of course, he’s not wrong that AI can be useful. But if your first thought when your newborn won’t sleep is to consult ChatGPT, that says more about your priorities than it does about parenthood.
the rest of us
feels […] like
See even ChatGPT can emulate self-awareness better than Sam Altman.
That says a lot about how worthless if a human he is.
if a human he is
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Well every other person that ever existed was raised without ChatGPT being necessary so just ask anyone.
Counterpoint: the parents before chatgpt raised Altman, Hitler, musk, trump, Putin, Castro, etc.
I wonder how people have been doing it, since the beginning of time, with no help from technology.
Ya big fucking clown.
Edit:
Honestly bro what is it about tech bros being the biggest fucking losers on the face of this planet? I have more respect for street sweepers at this point
If street sweepers went away, people would notice within a week or two.
If tech bros went away, we’d just enjoy not having tech bros.
It’s like that one thing: “Who would you notice is gone first, the CEO or the janitor?”
Just a big ol’ WTF here…
Forget chatgpt, I’m appalled that he reproduced.
Through surrogacy. He’s gay.
You’re telling me that another man wanted him at all? Or did he kinda just get a surrogate?
He’s married.
I mean why are you surprised, he’s not a bad looking guy and is very successful.
Calling him successful is technically true, but it kind of glosses over some very pertinent details of his success. He’s a billionaire, and you don’t get to be a billionaire without doing a lot of monstrous things to good people.
The surprise isn’t whether he’s good looking enough to get a partner. The surprise is over the fact that there’s another human being who thinks that those are qualities worth overlooking, especially one who’s queer, since billionaires like Sam Altman support the current regime that’s wholly against LGBTQ+ folks. And that same person with questionable tastes in partners wanted to take care of another human being with Sam Altman.
Yeah, this. Same thing with Elon.
doesnt look like it, elon has a breeding eugenics fetish. he has a breeding fetish like that 17bn-aire that just announced he will give his inhertience to his 100+children.
Saying someone’s is successful is not a moral judgement or approval of their character. Sam Altman is successful, Elon Musk is successful, all of these billionaires that built companies that have changed the world for better or wrong are all successful. This in no way means that I’m saying they’re good people or even that they are people that should be emulated or any other sort of moral judgement.
Successful is debatable. There’s no question he is financially successful, but he fails at every metric I personally measure success by: Honesty, integrity, loyalty, and kindness. I’m not saying my metric is the correct one by any means, just that the definnition of success varies across humanity.
Anything is debatable. I could debate that the sky is not blue of if I wanted to. I’m debating you right now.
He is successful by the metrics in which society measures success and that’s all I meant by that.
