I have, in the past, written a time or two about the hot sauce and salsa (among other goodies) I conjure up from veggies in the garden. I’m always on the lookout for innovative recipes that others are using/creating to see what twist(s) I can add to my stock and store. I ran across this earlier today. I thought that this was surely a joke. . . anyway it gave me a laugh.
So I did a simple search on Yahoo and two things became apparent: It’s no joke, and AI sucks at what it does.
First the no joke info. I found the guys/gals that crank this stuff out and it is indeed Professor Phardtpounders Colon Cleaner Hot Sauce – Elixir of capsaicin extremus. They have been around for years and have actually entered and took second in a hot sauce competition. They have other equally intriguing offerings:
The AI part of this post is my continuing rant on how dangerous and ridiculous (it can be both at the same time) this shit is. Here is what was pasted to the top of the search results when I went hunting for the hot sauce:
It just made shit up! It scrapped together BS pulled from other articles or encyclopedia and threw it at me. I suppose in the not too distant future that the little ‘Created by AI’ symbol/notice will grow smaller and smaller until it disappears completely. We’ll all be at the mercy of algorithms.
UPDATE: A short while after I posted the above I got a call on my cell phone. I guess I’m about like half of America, if I don’t recognize the number I don’t answer. The area code is/was 659 and I wondered where that was at.. . . a search on Yahoo produced the following results.
