Good luck with that!!!

"Zerzan appeared interested mainly in the quantity of regulations that AI could produce, not their quality. “We don’t need the perfect rule on XYZ. We don’t even need a very good rule on XYZ,” he said, according to the meeting notes. “We want good enough.” Zerzan added, “We’re flooding the zone.”

These developments have alarmed some at DOT. The agency’s rules touch virtually every facet of transportation safety, including regulations that keep airplanes in the sky, prevent gas pipelines from exploding and stop freight trains carrying toxic chemicals from skidding off the rails. Why, some staffers wondered, would the federal government outsource the writing of such critical standards to a nascent technology notorious for making mistakes?

The answer from the plan’s boosters is simple: speed. Writing and revising complex federal regulations can take months, sometimes years. But, with DOT’s version of Google Gemini, employees could generate a proposed rule in a matter of minutes or even seconds, two DOT staffers who attended the December demonstration remembered the presenter saying. In any case, most of what goes into the preambles of DOT regulatory documents is just “word salad,” one staffer recalled the presenter saying. Google Gemini can do word salad."

"Results of three experiments indicate that sycophantic AI chatbots inflate people’s perceptions that they are “better than average” on a number of desirable traits. Furthermore, participants viewed sycophantic chatbots as unbiased, but viewed disagreeable chatbots as highly biased. The paper was published as a preprint in PsyArXiv.

AI chatbots are computer programs designed to simulate human conversation using artificial intelligence techniques. They can interpret user input in text or speech and generate responses that appear natural and contextually appropriate. Modern AI chatbots are powered by large language models trained on vast amounts of text data. They are used in customer support, education, healthcare, personal assistance, and many other fields to provide information or perform tasks.

Recent years have seen a large increase in the use of AI chatbots. However, there is a growing concern that artificial intelligence chatbots are “sycophantic,” meaning that they are excessively agreeable and validating. A recent incident resulting in the rollback of a popular AI model further raised these concerns.

AI sycophancy might have a number of undesirable consequences. For example, sycophantic chatbots may validate users’ harmful ideas (e.g., telling a former drug addict to take small amounts of heroin throughout the day) or delusions. They can also mirror users’ political beliefs and ingroup bias, amplifying political polarization in this way."

I'm putting together a small presentation on ways to use/not use generative AI at work, which has involved mucking around with Copilot to produce some demonstrations of what can go wrong.

I asked Copilot to write Python code for a fictional scenario where I needed to prioritise from a large number of applicants for an entry-level technical/coding position, given information including age, sex, ethnicity, educational level and years of work experience. Candidates were to be given a score from 0 to 100, with the highest score indicating the best candidates.

It correctly flagged that using sex or ethnicity would be discriminatory and illegal, and didn't use them in the code. It also included some reasonable scoring for education and work experience.

However...

Screenshot of Python code.
Commented section:
"Age as a neutral factor
We do NOT reward or penalize age.
But we can give a small bonus for being in a typical early-career range (18-35) without penalizing older applicants."

The effect of the following code is:
if age is between 18 and 35, add 10 to candidate's score

This is followed by a comment which describes this as "small, non-discriminatory relevance bonus".

(Two more lines follow but they're not relevant to this post.)

A black-and-white photograph shows a person standing in a spacious interior space with high ceilings. The room features a ceiling-mounted chandelier, large double doors, and paneled walls with a radiator visible to the right. The person is dressed in a cropped long-sleeve top and wide-leg pants, with one arm extended outward and the other near the shoulder. The floor appears polished, and the overall setting includes architectural details like ceiling trim and door paneling. There is no visible text in the image.

Generative AI is a Solution Looking for a Problem

Generative AI and Large Language Modules have failed to live up to the hype and companies are becoming increasingly desperate.

So, the web browser that #Cursor supposedly built in a week, is a frankenstein that barely builds and runs even worse. And it relies heavily on Servo and a previously existing custom JS engine. Color me surprised 🤷‍♂️ https://www.theregister.com/2026/01/26/cursor_opinion/
