Gross. I'm so sick of these AI tech bros shoving it into every corner of my life.

It's probably long past time to remove Telegram from your life.

i really like ai, but only when i can activate it myself in apps or website.

There are valuable uses for AI in general. LLMs are not one of them.

They're nothing but manufactured bullshit machines.

which models did you use and what did you ask? the big and gratis models are very good already. (claude 3.7, openai 4o, deepseek r1). mistrals gratis model is not so good.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

All of them

Telegram was always a bad actor with misleading claims about their communications service. Not shocking at all.

grok is about to enter its furry terrorist arc

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hold on.... Why are they paying telegram and not the other way around?!

To ask is to answer 🐸

[–] wewbull@feddit.uk 14 points 1 month ago

...because Grok is being used to push certain "alternative facts" to those who are susceptible.

[–] sparky@lemmy.federate.cc 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So you’re telling me that Grok is so bad that they have to pay developers to integrate it? How backwards. People are willing to pay for Grok’s competitors.

Telegram with Grok.

Is it gonna be opt out/opt in

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh wow. Integrating an LLM AI in the absolute bottom in human communication; CSAM, drugs, revenge porn, criminal chats, illegal weapons trade and so much more … this will work out well.

[–] doodledup@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (3 children)

We know about all of that bottom human stuff because it's not encrypted. I guarantee you encrypted messengers like Signal are much worse when it comes to that.

[–] hornedfiend@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And yet, most radicalized chats are on Telegram, or so we were led to believe.

[–] toastmeister@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 month ago

Isn't telegram more like Instagram with feeds?

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 2 points 1 month ago

See, believe it or not but as far as we can tell, Signal is just less convenient for large groups and it very much looks like Telegram is worse. But it doesn’t matter: it’s about AI (Grok) being integrated with an environment known for bad data. Grok will interact with bad actors and train on awful data.
