Enough Musk Spam

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

Maybe they're just way underground and you've never heard of them

I made the band up to see if LLMbeciles could spot that this is not a real band.

Feel free to look up the band 凤凰血, though, and tell me how "underground" it is.

Does this count?

Also, by nature of being underground they would be difficult to look up. Some bands have no media presence, not even a Bandcamp or a SoundCloud.

Are you having this argument on the principle of defending the undergrounded-ness of bands, or do you actually believe LLMs always get the facts straight?

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Eh, more of an exercise in scientific skepticism. It's, possible that an obscure band with that name was mentioned deep in some training data that's not going to come up in a search. LLMs certainly hallucinate, but not always.

An obscure band with that name that has a discography that nobody's ever heard of anywhere, complete with band member names, track titles, etc?

Yeah, pull the other one, Sparky. It plays "Jingle Bells".

[–] ZDL@lazysoci.al 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Nope.

You can tell because they're not even in the same writing system. Future tip there.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works -1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Why would that matter? Band names are frequently translated and transliterated.

[–] ZDL@lazysoci.al 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Dude. Go be reply guy somehwere else. You bore the fuck out of me.
