I have no idea what you mean, would you like to elaborate?

I believe a formal citation (APA style) looks vaguely like this: gonzo41. (2023, March 22). Bard uses a Hacker News comment as source to say that Bard has shut down (By cryptoz). Hacker News. Retrieved March 26, 2023, from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35256223 Sorry if I screwed it up; that is just for the overall look. I'd agree that a citation doesn't have to be formal, but if it isn't, then the meaning of…

Right, we’re not talking about a formal academic citation, so the format is irrelevant in this context.

Why does it matter if the meaning has to be inferred? An informal citation or reference is still a citation or reference to something by speaker intent, and is not defined as such by whether or not the audience understands the reference, right?

In any case, citations, references, mentions, and uses of the DK effect are almost always wrong. I’ve seen a lot of them on HN, almost always to imply someone is incompetent, and I’ve yet to see one that’s correct.

Just like humans. Singularity is knocking.

I just asked it again ====== Q: How long will it take before Bard is shut down? A: Bard will not be shut down. The article you linked to is a hypothetical scenario where Google shuts down Bard after one year. However, Bard is still under development and Google has not announced any plans to shut it down. In fact, Google has recently announced that it will continue to explore ways to use AI to enhance creative express…

The original story is scary. It shows how easily Google Bard can be manipulated. This was just a joke and Bard has corrected itself. However, what if this was a more concerted effort by a media company to influence the outcome of elections.
