Tweaked ChatGPT predicts new Civil War 100% certain

[NorrinRadd]

This is fine.

Tim Pool used a couple of "exploits" to remove the AI's inhibitions and allow it to speak freely.

At least that's what I got out of the article.

So it found a pundit that thinks it's going to happen and parroted their opinion. So what? ChatGPT doesn't actually know the future.

But God does!

But that would sort of be like asking it: Does the sky look blue?

What did he tell you the probability of a US civil war is?

[Starlight]

I'm curious if US posters here:
a) think another US civil war (lets say in the next 30 or 40 years for the sake of putting a timeframe on what we're talking about) is very likely?
b) think that it would be a good thing?

He told me what is written in Scripture. If you want to know what the future is, you'll have to read it.

If you want to hear Him speak to you audibly, read it out loud.

I'm curious if New Zealand posters here:
a) think the world will end because of man-made climate change in the next 50 years (or the next several years according to AOC) is very likely?
b) think that it would be a good thing?

I have. I don't recall seeing anything on a US civil war, neither the first one, nor any possible second one.

No, and I'm not even sure what it means to speak of the world 'end'ing in that context, you'd have to define that.
I think we'll see a number of major changes, including many more severe weather events; major refugee crises that are climate induced and the major migration of people-groups; and possibly wars that result from that. If ocean acidification causes the mass extinction of fish we would see mass starvation events among countries that are reliant on fish for food sources. This all might bring major social and political changes, even major wars. But I would fully expect Western civilization to still exist in 50 years.

b) think that it would be a good thing?

No. In no way at all do I see any effects being positive.

Okay, so yes, there's probably more clear evidence than evidence for the end of world due to climate change that we're either in the beginning stages of some sort of civil war or on the cusp of one. Starting with the violence that occurred 7 years ago when physical attacks in the streets and at rallies against Trump supporters were numerous and ongoing in 2016, leading up to today where two Republican politicians have been shot in less than a month (which so far looks like an assassination). And of course everything else in between that time from both political sides -- i.e. the violence, the politically inspired attacks, the rhetoric, the murders, etc. And there's absolutely no indication any of this political gamesmanship and tribalism will at all slow down, much less stop.

No. In no way at all do I see this outcome being positive for my country.

If it rid the world of a lot of fascists -- mask-mandaters, jab-mandaters, lockdowners, speech-limiters, religion-prosecutors, etc. -- that aspect could be good.

a) No. I think wokism and far left liberalism will cannibalize itself long before then. It is destructive, not constructive and ends up attacking and defeating itself. We see the beginnings of this in "cancel culture" as liberals go after their own kind.
a1) If there were a civil war, the liberals fear of owning guns would put them at a severe disadvantage to conservatives and any civil war would probably be short lived. Throwing frozen water bottles and using baseball bats won't help much against semi-auto pistols and AR-15s.

b) No.

You twit. There is nothing about a civil war. I never said there was. I was referring to KG's comment that the chat bot doesn’t know the future.

Do try to keep up. And maybe brush up on your reading skills.

It may not rid the world of these, but they definitely seem to be forcing states to enact specific policy against it, with red states passing policies to counter federal policies and blue states passing policies to counter the red states, and folks fleeing the former states to find safety in the latter states. That's just another layer of potential civil war lingering in the air about us.
