@SuperDicq @chjara @charlotte Right now you can't get anything without some proprietary firmware running on it. Your keyboard probably has it, your mouse has it even in the very sensor itself, there are practical limits to what you can do without refusing technology outright.

@SuperDicq @chjara @charlotte What's the difference between shipping said software burned into the hardware itself vs shipping it as a binary with a redistributable license in the OS and sending it to the hardware? Yes, the distro must state that it contains said software, it is usually required by the license to have a notice, but that software doesn't run inside your userspace or kernel.

And I agree, firmware should be open source and replaceable, but that's a separate issue to solve.

@ct_bergstrom I was in for quite the shock too, I've heard about the google engineer who got sucked into believing LaMDA was sentient, so I expected this to be at least good enough to hold a cohesive conversation, but nope.

It's so dumb that it was difficult for me to extract the prompt after injecting it, because it just couldn't follow my instructions precisely unlike Bing, I was only able to get a vague idea of it and extract the likely format of search snippets, a list of 5 short results.
