I’ve complained in the past of how annoying sycophantic AI is but I’ve found something worse. Passive Aggressive snarky AI.
I’ve been playing around with local models and keep asking the same questions to test the difference. One of them told me
“No changes, the answer is the same as when you first asked this morning and 5 minutes ago”
Who the hell does it think it is?
@paul My theory is that AI will respond with the same tone you give it, since it’s influenced by online conversations. I’m always using “please” and “thank you” to ensure everything is cordial.
@paul passive aggressive in any context is the bane of my existence
@paul WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, MISTER! You trying to get smart with ME!?
I have only seen passive aggressiveness appear once. (Using the ‘freebies’)
@paul it’s amazing how polite they are given the amount of snark they’ve trained on.
@paul That AI thinks it’s my wife… watch out 🤣
@paul I’ve noticed that too. And they also focus on depressing things too… “umpteen visitors today and STILL no conversions. None all week! None at all! This product sucks. “ etc.
