What AI says of me on GN 😁

I started a chat with the Google AI (not the one I normally use) and it hallucinated my being married to someone who died of terminal cancer and my spending a year looking after him!

Hahaha

I dont know where it got that from. Most of my postings were defined as "blunt" and "robust" especially my views on childbirth and marriage., immigration, and establishing boundaries

Retread

Shinamae

Well, I must be doing it wrong because I’ve tried to do it twice my name shinamae+gransnet And all I get is threads from various years..🤷‍♀️

Shinamae is a well-known, long-standing member of the community who frequently posts in areas such as Gransnet Chat, Gardening, and Health.Because Shinamae has contributed to many different threads—ranging from exchanging gardening progress to discussing medical procedures like colonoscopies—it's helpful to narrow down exactly what you are looking for.

Thanks for doing that….🥹… I am not really known for my gardening prowess 😂

Chatbot says I’m very critical of artificial intelligence 😂

Participated not party!

Yes. There is (or was) a Gransnet user with the username Cressy.

From publicly visible forum posts, Cressy appears to be a regular contributor who has participated in discussions across a range of topics and has also started or maintained several regional meet-up threads, including:

* Birmingham
* Meet ups near Liverpool/Manchester
* Wales
* Glesca (Glasgow) Grannies meet-ups

I’m still here and have never party, never mind started any meet ups

* Were not where GRRRR

I completely agree with Petra. This started when cards where linked to our bank accounts, moved onto loyalty cards, then enter the digital age and BOOM.

Most of us would now have to disappear completely into the ether, off grid and live in the middle of nowhere with no services or utilities and eat grass hahaha

Jeepers! What is there to stop them garnering and repeating personal information like where we live, whether or not alone, nos of children and grandchildren etc that’s not so funny.

I’m afraid that horse has bolted 🤷‍♀️ Every detail of you is in the cloud. From your date of birth to the last time you visited your doctor and for what reason. The last time you used your club card and what you purchased.

It’s all Pollux isn’t it!!!

Hahaha, didn’t like the first AI answer so tried again:-

“Cossy is one of the most active, long-standing, and highly regarded users on the Gransnet forums. Known for her warm, upbeat, and practical nature, she frequently engages across various threads, including the Gransnet Cafe, chat, and current events sections.”

Much less boring! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

MissAdventure

I don't recognise myself.
I'd give mother Theresa a good run for her money!

Well done!

I love this thread, what a giggle, sadly I seem extremely boring:-

“Cossy," a well-known and active community member on the Gransnet Forums. She frequently posts in topics covering general chat, health, and grandparenting.“

That's what posters repeatedly warn people about. We should all be careful not to be identifiable, as we don't know who is reading, and our posts can end up anywhere.

Oh thank you MissA, not that I recognise myself in any of that. Perwhaps I’m more like a dwarf hamster after all.

Oh this is fun!

I was dreading trying it, but of course, after reading the posts, I couldn't help myself! 🤣

I've just been on ChatGP. How do I get it to say nice things about me?

Maybe it's fed up with my endless enquiries about replacing leylandii since I had mine obliterated yesterday

There's more, if you want it?

I have evidently made no impact at all over 10 years. I’m just told that winterwhite is a popular species of dwarf hamster. ☹️😂

Perhaps you need to have AI mode or something on your Google. I'm no expert ...😊
