Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

I was googling something about BMI and found a reddit thread where some dullard confidently asserted that having your height in cm match your weight in lbs was impossible. Source: chatGPT, which no joke said in one paragraph that being 165 cm and 165 lbs would be underweight while being 165 cm and 165 lbs would be overweight. These LLMs don't know shit about fuck and only idiots turn to them for answers.
Amazing mathematical reasoning at work here.
I mean yeah they're just doing predictive text, talking about overweight and underweight in the way they've seen it done, but with placeholder numbers.
