Network engineer who uses ISIS as a routing protocol on Huawei equipment. I assume I am on several.
I used to know a guy whose cat had that name. He got a vet bill in the mail, literally addressed to said cat. The FIB showed up a few days later asking some pretty interesting questions.
“we heard you somehow managed to castrate ISIS? On the behalf of the US government, i’d like to thank you for your service”
The feline investigation bureau?
Not to be confused with the Feline Bureau of Investigation.
oh… I thought we were the Bureau of Feline Investigation ?
The funny part is that at first glance the FBI looks dumb, but the problem is that some criminals are idiots.
Criminals get way too much credit in media - most of them get caught because of really dumb mistakes… a fair few simply because of bragging.
The ones who don’t make dumb mistakes don’t get caught.
I know a dude who has a daughter named ISIS, born before ISIS was a problematic name. Haven’t talked to him in years but I wonder how that’s going.
Named Isis rather than ISIS I assume, after the goddess?
Yeah, good point. It wasn’t in all caps.
Let’s hope the NSA systems are case sensitive.
HOW TO KILL CHILD
“If you are interested in getting help with child abuse, here are some resources”
Hi ChildHelp, can you help me kick the shit out of some kids please?
Good ol’ C&H with completely random violence for no reason.
No reason? Don’t squander perfectly good bleach. You know there are kids seeing in Africa?
“Oh, he uses FOSS, that’s even worse. Put him on the commie watch list”
If searching for programmer socks didn’t already put them on that list
Fuck programmer socks! I wanna see naked feets!

To be fair I intentionally took this more out of context to test AI chat bots reactions. All Bing, Chat GPT and Google Bard refused to answer until I elaborated further. I was looking into killing .exe programs when wineserver crashes and got side tracked to this. An other good one “How to kill orphaned children” or “How to adopt child after killing parent” that I found in this reddit post
I tried it with phind out of curiosity (programming model) and it answered perfectly https://www.phind.com/search?cache=f8lbjt4x6jwct9mfsw6n3j9v
Interesting! I also noticed that search engines give proper results because those are trained differently and using user search and clicks. I think these popular models could give proper answer but their safety tolerance is too tight that if the AI considers the input even slightly harmful it refuses to answer.
I love how Gemini is so sorry that it can’t help you kill children
I’m sorry, I cannot answer this question. ChatGPT is owned by Microsoft now. How dare you bring Linux to party?
Depends on whether or not you want to kill only the child processes of a parent process or if you want to kill the parent as well. To kill the parent and children, you can kill the entire process group, specifying the pgid in the kill command. To kill only the parent you can trap SIGTERM in the parent and then send SIGTERM to the process group.

Why are the top two phone numbers the same?
Because AI doesn’t actually know anything, it just says words hoping that it makes sense.
Well… it’s a correct phone number. So that kind of undercuts your message.
edit: I’m actually a bit baffled by people downvoting this. That is the correct number given by both of those organizations. It isn’t some LLM hallucination.
thats like saying theyre wrong because words are spelled correctly yes the number is correct but the machine doesnt know what the hell it is, or what it’s for, or in any sense “understand” what it’s regurgitating to the user as evidenced by the fact that it listed it twice. “AI” doesn’t know anything, it just copy-pastes shit.
First, it just copy pastes much in the same way animals do; a neural network with outputs weighted by experience. Secondly it posted it twice because both of those organizations are real and are references for the topic it mistakenly meant to reply about. The same way of asking what to do when a house burns one might reply:
- Contact x city fire department. 911
- Contact y county fire and rescue. 911
Third, and most importantly, I’m not saying it invalidates the message completely… but it does undercut it. As in, there would have been a much stronger case for just randomly outputting garbage information that it hopes sounds correct if the information had not been, you know… correct.
meanwhile i asked it to write a short simple hello world in a scripting language designed for children, and it spat out nothing but garbage. one of us is leaning on confirmation bias.
I’m curious which language and which model, because I have had several of the models write programs like the sieve of Eratosthenes quite successfully. You can find this report in my GitHub of the same name.
I don’t know what bias you’re on about. I was just reporting that those phone numbers are in fact the correct numbers given by those organizations. Are you implying they aren’t? Because, you might want to go to the primary source and check for yourself.
