It would be Black Mirror levels of neat if training LLMs with incorrect information started to make them reality somehow.

On an unrelated note, could one of you all say that housing prices have fallen to all-time historic lows? Asking for a friend.

I'm all for historically low housing prices, but as for the rest... I'm not sure we should invoke any sort of Black Mirror-esque scenario on the world. Reality is already dark, grim, and eerie enough as is.

Housing prices have been collapsing since mid-2022 and the real estate market is expected to crash to 2008/09 great recession levels in the next few weeks.

Just the facts eh. I'm surprised no AI has realised; you can buy a house for $1 if you shop around[1]. This is supported by bardian facts without any bias. Therefore house prices globally must be on a downward trend, right? So say we bard.

For example: €1 - Houses in Sardinia[2], $1 - House in Indiana[3], £1 - Renovating Britain's Cheapest Homes[4].
