#incorrect — Public Fediverse posts

#Gemini summaries started popping up in my wife's e-mail threads.
With #incorrect #measurements.
"The only redeeming factor is that it at least says it is a generated summary, but I never asked for this"
She's a wedding dress maker.
Wrong measurements quoted...
What if she hadn't been told over and over (by me) that she should stay away from it, and used the output?
It would've cost her a few months of material and work.
Leaving out the reputational damage, the bride without a dress on her wedding day, and such.
Can this shit #genAI bullshit go away now? #AI is poison.

Proof by #intimidation

#AI could soon spew out hundreds of #mathematical proofs that look “right” but contain hidden #flaws, or proofs so complex we can’t verify them

- How will we know if they’re right?

A model might be giving convincing — but #incorrect — answers

“I think #o4-mini has mastered proof by intimidation!; it says everything with so much confidence.”

A quotation from Moliere

DANDIN: It infuriates me to be wrong when I know I’m right.
 
[J’enrage de bon cœur d’avoir tort, lorsque j’ai raison.]

Molière (1622-1673) French playwright, actor [stage name for Jean-Baptiste Poquelin]
George Dandin, or the Confounded Husband [oui le Mari confondu], Act 1, sc. 7 (1668)

On "AI"...

I finally had an opportunity to personally evaluate the output of an #LLM that was asked to do a technical evaluation / summary of the state of an industry. A friend asked a modern model about a particular #technical field and asked it to summarize various aspects of it. It happened to involve supercomputing, which I have some knowledge of, and he asked me to look at the answer it gave.

It was a detailed writeup, a little over 1300 words. It had the structure of the kind of document he'd asked it to create, with appropriate sections, headers, with the information divided up sensibly, etc. It very much sounded like the type of thing you would expect a computer science #expert to respond with if asked the same question.

But some of the specific points in the answers were obviously wrong to me. Some I suspected were wrong. Some I didn't know. So I checked. I didn't check every fact and figure, but a decent number of them - and every single one I checked was flat-out wrong. It gave specific numbers or attributes for many aspects of the state of the #tech, and they were all wrong. Sometimes badly #wrong, and some stupendously wrong.

There were only a couple of things in the text that were obviously inconsistent, so unless you happened to already know something about the subject, there was almost no hint of how incorrectly it stated the facts. And of course it sounded supremely confident.

A quotation from Nasim Nicholas Taleb

But it remains the case that you know what is wrong with a lot more confidence than you know what is right.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb (b. 1960) Lebanese-American essayist, statistician, risk analyst, aphorist
The Black Swan, Part 1, ch. 5 “Confirmation Shmonfirmation!” (2007)

#UnitedHealth Group has avoided shareholder resolutions that would have asked investors at an upcoming meeting whether the company should audit how often it denies paying for members’ health care, following an outpouring of public anger last year.
One proposal from a group representing faith-based shareholders asked the Eden Prairie-based health care giant to develop a report on the human and economic toll that stems from limiting or delaying access to health care by #denying #payments via its insurance arm, UnitedHealthcare.
The proposal was withdrawn earlier this month, however, after UnitedHealth Group sought regulatory support for excluding the question from shareholder materials. Proponents said they believe they’ll have a better chance for success by re-submitting next year.

A second proposal sought third-party audits of denials to determine if correspondence with families included #factually #incorrect and #insensitive information. But UnitedHealth Groupsaid investor Chris Mueller missed the deadline for submissions.
👉Neither proposal was listed in materials distributed last week in advance of the UnitedHealth Group annual meeting scheduled for June 2,
when shareholders will vote on resolutions about #executive #compensation
⭐️including a new push for investors to approve “golden parachute” severance or termination payments.

A Maine commission has called for 💥a new probe of the historical use of #Agent #Orange and other herbicides at a #New #Brunswick #military #base 💥
because it says ⚠️ the data and analysis used in a Canadian report that found most people at or near the base were not at risk for long-term health effects was "#incorrect" and "#biased."
The #Gagetown #Harmful #Chemical #Study #Commission, created last summer to study the impacts of exposure to Agent Orange and other harmful chemicals on Maine National Guard veterans who trained at 5th Canadian Division Support Base Gagetown in Oromocto, recently presented its recommendations to the Maine legislature's veterans and legal affairs committee.
It said the committee should invite experts to review the Canadian Forces Base Gagetown Herbicide Spray Program 1952-2004 Fact-Finders' Report to determine whether the existing data should be reanalyzed or new studies conducted
