Is this based on Elvis if he’d lived?
I didn’t realize my 64-year-old uncle was average-sized.
At 60, they switch over to units of time. After 70, to metric.
Edit: My bad. After 60 pounds, they reverse polarity.
Well Americans do run heavier than most other countries.
Light years is not a measurement of time it is a measurement of weight.
Billions of dollars.
Doesn’t this also mean that the average life expectancy of a US American male is not much more than 29 years?
Maybe. But if they survive their 50s they end up being 69 pounds old.
Shit, I’m underweight. From today, 3 pizzas for dinner every day.
Hopefully you’ll weigh 1 year when the time comes…
You can become a one year old again, by just losing some weight!
This is why old people are so slow. They’re heavy as fuck.

As funny as this is, Gemini was essentially broken on release. For context this is a current response
Its fun to laugh at how stupid it was, but the fact its gotten better honestly just increases the risk that someone will believe a hallucination and bad information proliferates because its embedded in largely good information making it appear trustworthy, and if you don’t know the answer then you dont know when it’s confidently wrong. And it increases the risk that AI usage will grow as people decide they think its helpful, with harmful implications for the environment and labor.
It would frankly be nice if had stayed that stupid, it would be much less harmful that way
I still get hilariously bad, wildly inaccurate or false responses from search engine AI.
If the answer isn’t in the training data or easily searchable on the web, it will make shit up and lie to you with the confidence of a used car salesman.
It’s not always this egregious, but it can be. I still see AI messing up the “how many letters are in this word” prompts years after I first discovered that it was a thing.
I’ve had the duckduckgo ai (which I have since disabled) relatively recently hallucinate that the walking speed of a game character was like mach 4.5
And it considered that speed “slow+”

Google models always suck ass, I don’t get why people ever glaze it. Or google in general.
Yes its my understanding that other models are generally considered much better. I don’t think I’ve ever really seen anyone glaze Gemini though. If you’re talking about my comment you’re replying to, I’m not sure I’d agree that saying its now capable of giving a vaguely competent and accurate sounding answer that isnt complete garbage is glazing 😅
Do you see folks aside from google marketing people hyping up Gemini in comparison to other models? (I dont follow things super closely so I may be kinda out of the loop)
Gemini is near the bottom of the pack for me personally. It once suggested to me that my gasoline powered lawn mower doesn’t need an oil change 🙄
Out of curiosity, which do you think produces the most helpful outputs? I care a lot about how technology harms or helps people, and honestly the more capable ai gets the more I’m concerned that without regulatory guard rails its going to do an incredible amount of harm. So I’ve tried to at least keep up with vaguely where its at, but I’ve mostly just used chatGPT, though I’ve tried to limit my usage cause I don’t like the way it feels like it impacts me mentally
Mostly it has seemed better at finding burried information than a search engine, but very unreliable for certain other kinds of tasks. Weirdly it has seemed difficult to predict what kinds of tasks it will perform well, and which it’ll butcher
I haven’t tried Claude or Grok so I can’t speak to their outputs, other than the latter being known for it’s Mecha-Hitlerness. ChatGPT can simultaneously be smart and yet super dumb at times, and Alexa is pretty aggressive with marketing products off Amazon (go figure). Microsoft Copilot is not very useful because it can’t do stuff that you’d expect an AI integrated into an OS is capable of. For instance, I can’t just tell it to batch rename stuff inside Windows Explorer without having to do through a PowerShell script that I would have to execute (which any LLM can generate anyway).
I’ve mostly been using it to help me make 3D models, surprisingly enough. It is pretty capable with OpenSCAD with a decent amount of hand holding. But again it can be dumb (I had to explain to it how a handle works lol).
I only use it sparingly at my actual job and only as a double check or grammar check as it more frequently makes mistakes that are less obvious to catch than in 3D modeling.
Bear in mind, these are averages, not medians. They can be thrown off by the relatively few Americans who weigh 100,000,000+ lbs each.

At birth I weighed 10 years and aged like 20,000 lbs.
Not bears, people.

Ladies, if your man weighs 4,900 pounds, that’s not your man. That’s a 2026 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali.
So that’s where my money went…,
Was it about tree fiddy?
Well you see in the US, the vehicle just becomes the same legal entity as the owner, after a certain number of years.
EDIT
And when you hit the age you qualify for retriement, well they just roll back ‘the odometer’, as a kind of traditional joke, reflected in some records.
American units of measurement are so weird.
You take that back. It’s patently untrue and it’s evoked at least 10 hamburgers worth of anger from me.
dude go eat two hamburgers. my doctor said if i got to nine burgers i could have an event and i worry about you
An event like a party? Sounds fun!
