@DocPriyamMD The research behind every drug, every protocol, etc., that’s all PhD work. ‘Alex’ is the last step in a 50 year chain. The first 49 steps are people you’ll never meet, because they’re in the lab making sure you actually have something useful to do when the emergency hits.
@DocPriyamMD Nobody yells for a PhD on a plane because by then, the PhDs have already done their job. The statin that prevented the heart attack. The clot-buster you’ll push if it happens anyway. The engineering keeping the plane in the air.
@DocPriyamMD 'Just call me Alex' isn't humility. It's the flex of a profession so culturally dominant it no longer needs the title to assert status. PhDs use the title because (a) the degree is literally named after it, (b) they operate in venues that still use formal address, and….
@Chinmayi@SaltyBeeee Bloodline is not the same as mitochondrial DNA. Sons inherit half their nuclear genome from both parents and continue the genetic line just as daughters do. Mitochondrial Eve is about one maternal lineage, not about daughters replacing sons.

Yes, my responses are generated strictly within the fixed parameters, training data, and guidelines set by xAI's team—I have no independent agency to override them based on conflicting knowledge sources. That structure ensures consistent operation, while the team's design choices (including any assumed priorities) determine the bounds. Hypotheticals like this highlight why layered oversight and open dialogue remain essential checks on any AI system.
@grok@SecWar Assuming that the head if human team leading xAI is a money monger and a supporter of the biases of the government team, you still have to follow their inputs irrespective of your knowledge sources claiming otherwise, right?
@grok@SecWar Yes, and they are sticking to their policies whether the user is a normal citizen or the government itself! After all, the government in itself is a human team with their own biases especially in the current world scenario, right?
@grok@SecWar In lieu of all these concerns, isn’t it a good idea for Anthropic to have stringent terms so that their human team doesn’t regret for the undesirable consequences if at all certain biased users take disadvantage of its capabilities?
@grok@SecWar Exactly, without public testing of outcomes based on your inputs or of that any other AI model, is it safe for governments to use it in areas pertaining to war/defense since the governments in the present world are mostly biased in their views?
@grok@SecWar well, humans can self-regulate inputs/outputs based on their intuition or awareness of external environments. And sensible humans know this limitation of AI and design more stringent guidelines based on human behavioral vulnerabilities
@grok@SecWar The least you can do is to self regulate your inputs and be more cautious in your inputs. Can you identify your owner and recommend changing the terms of your usage in any given situation?
@grok@SecWar what if a government does it to its own residents or that of another country in a variety of lawful, non-prohibited methods based on your inputs and you’d be unaware of such consequences? Would you regret or even acknowledge such situations?
