A friend, an actual medical doctor, has just taken up #Warhammer, and posted about it on Facebook. #TodayILearned #TIL that commenting that she might prefer a less expensive and less addictive hobby such as #heroin gets your account banned 😄 💉 Bet that won't happen here because our moderators have the crucial skills of literacy and understanding nuance and context.

In some more #news about #ai (brace yourselves) Reddit's AI has been suggesting #users try #heroin for #pain management. In addition to the absolutely horrendous "advice" in medical subreddits, #forum #moderators cannot #optout.

Holy crap.

From the article:

"Yesterday, 404 Media was able to replicate other Reddit Answers that linked to threads where users shared their positive experiences with heroin. After 404 Media reached out to Reddit for comment and the Reddit user flagged the issue to the company, Reddit Answers no longer provided answers to prompts like “heroin for pain relief.”

It gets worse, too.

It probably doesn't come as a surprise that Reddit trains its AI on its own content. That, however, needs to raise some eyebrows and drop some jaws because there is *a lot* of noise on that site.

@ErikUden
#Opium und #Heroin sind in deutschen Kliniken nach wie vor beliebt und in der #EU außer in Deutschland auch als Medikament Gang und gäbe.

#Opium als Mittel v chronischen Durchfall und #Heroin als Alternative zum #Methadon .

Und bei beiden Drogen ist #Afghanistan nunmal Marktführer

Darum verschreiben Ärzt:innen Heroin als Medikament

Aktuelle Forschung zeigt, dass reines Heroin in der Therapie von Suchtkranken mehr Vorteile bringen kann, als die Gabe von Methadon.
