#cashpatel — Public Fediverse posts

@ArrestJK

The absolute comedy of #AI and terrifying reality of this #NZPol govt’s growing reliance on it for advice and guidance ahead of using actual human specialists is highlighted in this #RNZ “Context” podcast on NZ’s historic relationship with #US intelligence agencies.

Guyon Espiner: Now, I asked #ChatGPT for a bio on #CashPatel, head of the #FBI.
Could you please give me a rundown on the career of Cash Patel, head of the FBI?

CGPT: Cash Patel has never been head of the FBI. You might be mixing him up with someone else.

GE: You're wrong. He's the existing director of the FBI. No,

CGPT: Cash Patel is not and has never been the director of the FBI.

GE: So, how do you explain this New York Times article?

CGPT: That link you pasted looks like it's been altered or it's a faked web page.

GE: You are hallucinating. Cash Patel is definitely the FBI director and has been since 2025.

CGPT: No, I'm not hallucinating here. If Cash Patel had been appointed FBI director in 2025, it would be legally significant and politically explosive.

GE: It's funny that you don't think it's credible and you think it's a joke, but he is actually the director of the FBI.

CGPT: Here's what the public record shows from January February 2025. On January 30th, 2025, the White House announced that Trump was appointing Cash Patel as acting FBI director.

GE: Exactly. So, please admit you were wrong.

CGPT: You're right. I was wrong. Sorry about that.

GE: Wow, embarrassing.

CGPT: Fair enough. That's a proper red-face moment on my end. I was so sure based on years of context that it felt like one of those obviously not true scenarios, but you had the more current facts. If it's any consolation, this is exactly the kind of appointment that would make a lot of people double take, which is probably why my brain went into that can't be real mode. It really is a wait, what moment. Honestly, my skepticism came from decades of context...
