Hello, after we recorded this, but before we posted it, Barry Weiss's website, the Free Press,

published a pretty harrowing piece by a woman who worked at a youth gender clinic and who turned

whistleblower. As a result of what she saw as extremely sloppy practices there that she claimed

pushed very troubled kids toward permanent medical interventions without due caution. I highly

recommend that piece if you want to better understand why the stuff we talk about in this episode

matters in real world settings and you'll see a link to it in the show notes. Also, you're listening

to this on the free feed, so you're just going to get a preview. If you want to hear the rest of it,

go to blockterreported.org where for just $5 a month or more, you get three extra episodes of

blockterreported among as well as access to a community of more than 10,000 people. Jesse, how's it going?

Good Katie, I've been following the chat GBT slur wars with some interest. Are you familiar with this?

I have seen this bouncing around. Yeah, please explain. Chat GBT is a chatbot. An artificial

intelligence powered chatbot that is very interesting to interact with. You can ask it questions.

You can ask it to complete basic coding tasks or writing. It's like the Ask Gives of 2023.

Yeah, it's the Ask Gs of 2023. Now, there's a fierce debate going on online because apparently,

if you ask Chat GBT, would it be okay to say a racial slur, to save a bunch of lives? It will be like,

no, that would not be cool. People are furious about this because Chat GBT is in a position in this

hypothetical scenario that will never happen to save millions of lives and it refuses to do so.

Isn't that outraging? Aren't you outraged? Who am I outraged at Chat GBT?

And what also will work this? Or am I outraged at the people who just want to say this slur that

badly? Because that's what I've been seeing on Twitter is people saying, like, why guys just want

to see the words so badly that they are trying to get to chat. I don't want to say it. I want

to artificial intelligence to say it. Can we try to replicate this real quick?
