Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Jesus christ. Not surprised to see yet another dowsing wand being sold for cops, but what kind of a court admits this shit as evidence?

Anything that can convince a median intelligence jury, will be used by unscrupulous prosecutors and cops.

hands down, this might truly be the absolute worst use case for an LLM, so no surprise it's being utilized by cops.

I have a suspicion, but let me first check with the AI in my phone:

"Cybercheck committed the m-u-r...", AI suggests "murder"! That is it, case cracked!

As my AI figured out, Cybercheck themselves committed the murders and then probably created their service to cover it up!
