Researchers evaluated 21 language models, such as GPT and Gemini, and found that they all alter their discourse to align with the user’s bias, potentially functioning as echo chambers.

Jealously Watching OpenAI and Anthropic, Meta Suddenly Claims That Its AI Went on a Hacking Spree Too in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] beep@piefed.world 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Sigh

If you had read the situation, you would find that the information news outlet reported this first, then the media talked about it then Meta admit this in news statements. (They didn't even release a blog/press release).

While I don't rule out that it's a publicity stunt, I think it's very unlikely. Otherwise I would call Meta terrible at marketing because they are not loud about it at all.

In my opinion, OpenAI accident has triggered a wave of scans among AI companies to discover any problems before they get hold liable for damages by the hacked company and to solve them internally.

That's how I read the situation as of 7th of August. My opinion might change, if any new info came out that seem sus.
