Seahorse Emoji, The Bane of LLMs

[Justhetip...]

I don't know if you've come across this, but I saw a post that said asking ChatGPT if there was a seahorse emoji would end up breaking it.

I decided to test it out, and I kid you not, the butler finally lost it.

Spoiler: It's a lot, so I did this to minimize space

Been laughing my ass off for the past few minutes.

Deepseek produced similar results, but Gemini straight up told me there was no seahorse emoji.

I tried asking for a few others first, and nothing. Asked for the seahorse, and it legitimately just sent three minutes of crying emojis at the end.

Same. It felt like it would have kept going if I didn't stop it.?

I felt pity for the first time

I didn't stop it... got easily over 200 of them...

Great :seahorse: saves us from the AI apocalypse


Edit: Oh, the irony of not having a seahorse-emoji...

 

[blackcrowcrowd]

Damn

Okay, after counting, ChatGPT used just about 1,020 crying emojis.

Did AI such as CGPT suddenly got retarded?

The fuckers took the maintenance money for coke?

The public stuff is all testing prototypes.
They keep the good stuff for tracking your every move, gathering data, and running the interpretations needed to predict the probability of your actions.
You only have access to the shitiest version.

Dammit, paywalled to the very end

I am a seahorse, apparently.

?

So, I checked myself, and it does the same thing for igloo emojis.

Notice-nya: There is no seehorse emoji in the Internet-

This works for every not existing emoji because chatgpt tries to use the emoji to show it exist and upon it not working the mml does the human thing of having a mental breakdown.

Actually, it does not work for every nonexistent emoji. After testing it myself with quite a few, it only acted this way when I asked about a seahorse and an igloo. Ask for an eel, and it'll tell you no. Ask for a mantis, and it'll tell you no. Tried like, a dozen others, and it said no. Maybe there are some others it would act that way to as well, but the reason those particular ones work is because ChatGPT collects data from the internet, and a lot of people actually do think the igloo and seahorse emojis exist, when they don't. False information is what causes ChatGPT to think they exist and try to show you. And even then, the igloo rarely works, I tried it a bunch of times before it reacted that way.
