Shouldn’t have bought that book written by AI.
I asked chatgpt to reply to this comment:
Oh yeah, well, it’s totally fine to rely on AI for info on poisonous mushrooms. After all, what could possibly go wrong? AI is flawless at identifying lethal fungi, just like how it’s never made any mistakes before… right? Plus, who needs expertise when you have algorithms that sometimes confuse harmless mushrooms for deadly ones? It’s practically foolproof! 🍄😬
…Widespread knowledge of LLM fallibility should be a recent enough cultural phenomenon that it’s not in the GPT training sets? Also, that comment didn’t even mention mushrooms. I assume you fed it your own description of the conversational context?
Yeah, the prompt was something like “give an unconvincing argument for using AI to identify poisonous mushrooms”
They might have artificially augmented the training set with such things in an attempt to communicate “Look, even ChatGPT thinks it’s not reliable”.
(If you’re about to point out that ChatGPT doesn’t think, you probably didn’t need to be told that in the first place)
Good LLM
Ah, a Perry Bible Fellowship comic in the wild!
Pbfcomics.com if anyone wants to see more.
And a newish one, right? That’s the most exciting part to me!
Whaaaaa?! I haven’t seen a new PBF in ages! I’ll have to start checking the website again.
Same!! I went from being excited to see me in the wild to being excited that I’ve never seen this one!
And the RSS Feed for those interested:

There’s a robe in the trash, someone escaped…
She snitching to the officer!
Notice the ring on the finger!
Oh yeah, good eye!
And her hands (and eyes) are in what looks like an anxious pose in the second frame. So she knew something might go wrong!
Is she snitching? Does an informant really snitch? If she was a plant the whole time, how could she be morally deplorable for turning on these very fun guys?
heh, fun guys
Those hooded people look awesome!
Time for you to join the mycology club!
They really are a bunch of fun guys
There’s not much room in the club for guys who aren’t
All I’m saying, is that it’s easier than most people realize.
Can I in an already moldy house? Lol
That’ll generally make it harder to grow mushrooms since it increases the chances of contamination, to grow and fruit mushrooms you generally need a very sterile environment, not necessarily medical-grade but it definitely does need to be very clean.
I mean you can… But I warn you it will be harder. But still doable. Remember the key to success is more tries. The more bags you spawn. The more chances some will be successful.
Oh and clean your area good.
That’s how they lure you in
Shadow wizard money gang!
We love casting spells
Is this Perry Bible Fellowship?
yeah, I don’t get why people cut authors’ references. and yes it seems pbf EDIT: by people I mean people in general, not specifically OP
It's not cropped though? The website name is still there on the cop car.
yes it’s there, because people cut authors’ reference out of the panels
Yep, it appears so.
I feel like I’ve seen their stuff before, but I never knew the name.
I don’t get it
It’s illegal to give people poison
Damn Big Government.
Mycology is the study of mushrooms. I’m guessing they give you two bits of mushroom, one from a lethally poisonous one. If you can tell them apart (or get lucky) you get to join the club.
Why is the red cross responding to this?
They’re great at showing up where there’s nothing left to save
It used to be common for American ambulances to have red crosses on them, and a lot of Americans still associate the symbol with emergency medical care.
It’s not used that way anymore because there’s a law (18 USC § 706) basically saying only the Red Cross is allowed to use it.
It was because the red cross used them in their war time ambulances, rescue boats and medical products during WWI and WWII. But it’s not an “anymore”, the red cross has always owned the red cross. That’s why it’s a red cross. The law was a delayed formalism of what was IHL way before due to the US refusal to ratify their signature of the Geneva convention. But my question is genuine because the red cross actually do operate some ambulances in some countries, but those countries are usually involved in a war of some sort. This implies this comic is set in a war zone.
