I asked Chat-GPT aboout Elon’s salute, just for fun, and it replied it could not analyse pictures and I needed to describe it to him. I had pictures analysed before, even traslating and explaining a cartoon joke. I tought it could be caused by the .webp format. So I retried the joke image and it worked fine. I uploaded a png of Elon and it went wrong. Can others repeat the experience or was it just a fluke? I am not angry just let down a little.

      To be fair…based on it knowing who it is, and what he’s doing, if you hadn’t seen it with your own eyes it doesn’t sound plausible. Like if you heard that there was nazi salutes being done at the official presidential inauguration, you’d think “ah, this guys exaggerating. He probably made a small gesture that’s being taken out of context”

      Except no. He full on did a nazi salute. Enthusiastically at that. And then he thought “Oh, my bad, the people in the back probably couldn’t see that. LET ME DO ANOTHER NAZI SALUTE FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK BEHIND ME!”

      And he did it A SECOND time!

      It’s not chatGPTs fault it’s unable to discern absurdity from reality at this point. You can’t blame the program for what life has become. I fully expect The Onion to publish an article over the next 4 years that just says “We give up. Fuck it. We can’t make up crazier shit than NPR at this rate.”

        I am so glad I watched the video. Seeing his arm in motion really drives it home. (Skip ahead about 17 seconds to spare yourself the agony of hearing his voice.)

        Talking about his “heart” was obviously only included as an incredibly weak attempt at an excuse for the salute. I’m sure there are apologists out there who have lapped it up, though.

            No offense but you’re kind of cringey. Your dad is an idiot but so are you

              Using memes in an argument is just not a valid tactic.

            Sending soyjacks to your father is a choice.

            Not necessarily a bad choice just not one I’d make.

            Always interesting to see the American boomer perspective from the front lines.

      Yeah it also offered me to analyse it for fake, but refused to look at it otherwise, it disapeared the whole conversation after the warning you see on my post. Could be because I had reached the GPT-4 limit for the day, but I dont remember having conversation disapear from the list.

          Interesting. I might try it tomorrow and see if it gives me the same answer as you got or something completely different. Maybe more users asking about it will change the output, or maybe they already have the guardrails set.
