In 2006, Google Image Labeler was released, a gamification where you and a random partner were shown an image from Google Images and had to provide a description, with points awarded for saying the same thing. What could possibly go wrong? At first it backfired because players kept picking the simplest descriptor (e.g. "man" instead of "Bill Gates'). But soon players figured out that it didn't matter if they were right, they just got points for matching what their partner was doing. Some players started labeling _every image_ as "congenita" and a few other obscure words. Players partnered with them realized they would get no points if they played legitimately and maximum points if they too started labeling everything as "congenita". Thus the game quickly devolved and Google wound up with loads of useless data.

I see it all the time at the hotel I work at - summer weekends we're often sold out as that's when most weddings and local events happen. Every single weekend I get no less than ten requests to check in early on the day of the wedding so they can get ready because the wedding is at 2pm. Check in is 3pm, and since it's a Saturday, we were likely sold out the night before so there aren't any rooms ready for early check in. The other prevalent example is the people who don't think about how weekends at hotels are busy and wait until 9 or 10pm on Fri/Sat night to find a room, only to discover they're all sold out. Similarly, we have about ten long-term residents who only book one day at a time and don't consider on Monday that their room might not be available on Friday, then act like it's our fault that we didn't do anything to hold "their" room.

I did a few Uber food deliveries (and this would be a year or two before the DoorDash fiasco). Twice there were orders for food places that were closed. 🥴 Once it was a suppertime order for a sandwich deli that had lunch hours only. Closed at 16:00. The other was for a McDonald's drive-thru. The location was open late but not as late as I liked to drive. I think it closed at midnight and I was getting called over there at half-past. I drove through so as to rule out some kind of special arrangement, but the dude who was in there finishing work just shook his head as if I were a would-be customer who couldn't read signs. No surprise he wouldn't even open the window for a quick clarifying talk. On both occasions, my driver app gave me a short list of options for the order cancellation reason. None of them applied so I had to choose a lie. There wasn't an option of "other" and there was no evident way to submit a report.

It's too early and probably not funny enough, but California's fast food minimum wage is a great example of government not understanding the laws of unintended consequences.
I kinda think California wants to put fast food out of business. The law isn't for the workers but rather to give smaller local food shops an advantage over big chain fast food restaurants. Sure, they sell it as helping fast food workers, but it really isn't.
Except those smaller places have extremely thing profit margins. Big chain places can take the hit because they function on an (inter)national scale. But small stores if they start making a loss just close down straight away
Liberals think every fast food restaurant is sitting on a vast fortune they're just refusing to share with employees out of greed. That's why they were shocked when restaurants closed and prices went up after the wage hike.
@@dinoblacklane1640 You know most fast food chains are franchises and thus owned locally. They often aren't owned by the huge company that they are named for but rather a local guy owns the local fast food joint. They also have slim profit margins.
Red Light Cameras are a great candidate. Most cities with them have been caught red-handed adjusting the yellow light time (looking at you Knoxville) in hopes of generating additional revenue from them. Also they've backfired in Tennessee to where they've been ruled that you have the right to face your accuser, being some guy behind a desk from the company that installed them and leased them to the city. AKA: You don't have to pay the ticket! Another one is the 11-Foot-8 Bridge in Durham, NC. Yes, the RUclips-famous one. A few years ago the bridge was raised 8 inches to make the tracks level with nearby train crossings, and they've installed a fancy traffic light that turns red when an overheight truck is incoming. It's ended up with slightly more truck crashes because trucks tend to floor it when the light turns yellow.
@@divinecomedian2, "idiots"?? Yep, I'm sure you've NEVER missed a warning sign in your driving, er,,,I mean, comic career. I have watched the bridge collisions, but, I don't take pleasure in it like you do.
They even added a sign that says "overheight must turn" that only lights up when an overheight truck appears. There's nothing more they can do at this point, other than add another sign below that that says, "This means you."
My favorite thing about the google one is someone searched “I’m feeling depressed” and in the results on of the things said was “some people suggest jumping off the golden gate bridge can end your depression.”
No. Any person negatively reviewing the business because their pizza was cold after some DoorDasher had it for half an hour after it was handed off by the business is a moron and shouldn’t be allowed to leave reviews. People need to stop blaming businesses for what happens during third party delivery. Now, for places like McDonalds, etc…where you can order delivery directly through their own app and they farm it out to DD or UE, I can see blaming them because they took responsibility by offering delivery directly.
@@lq7777 thepart about without gaining notice was wrong. But 30 minute should not make a pizza cold. And, sometimes it is the places fault. I use door dash with pizza place and the have good pizza but they oftren got the soft drink wrong its missing. I have lately been asking the drbter to mak sure the pop order is rght and they get the pop. Also, i told the place about the isssue telling them they are losing money everytme they forget the pop. Some times the places take 30 minuter or more to call for pizza. And, it must havbe actually worke as now door dash is the numbrer deiver of food in america
Did the pizza guy tip the DoorDash drivers that were picking up his pizzas and dropping them off in the same spot? What's a proper tip amount for moving a pizza three feet?
DoorDash, at least now, allows customers to pick up their own orders. I figure, this was the case back then as well, but with the margin earned, a very generous tip would have been manageable, for sure.
A lot of complaints here about only 1 being government. I always think back to how John Stossel started to see the light by being a consumer reporter. Its not like the right mindset is once someone joins the government they start acting silly or authoritarian. The point is PEOPLE. Human indivduals are first and foremost the actors in society and by highlighting these failures then we dont become an Us vs Them thing but rather are objectively looking at decisions and consequences and noticing where a government, or even our own endeavors, are grasping beyond what we should due to limitations of being a human being.
True. There is also a good argument that media is, in part, a fourth branch of government. Like if you go back to around 1790 and look at the conversations about the role of free speech and free press with regard to government.
What could possibly go wrong? Well let me tell you by starting a rant that insults your physical appearance and parentage. After that, I'll continue the randomly angry rant by insinuating your mental capacity is significantly lower than average and imply you vote for unfavorable politicians. Once that is complete I shall do a 180 and begin advertising a website that seems a little fishy with its promise of free money. And then to conclude things I shall insult your physical appearance once more and leave a closing string of swear-filled sentences.
Incredible that not only did France fail to keep that installation a secret....but that trying to led wikipedia to including the grid coordinates to it's exact location. It's 45.6531°N 3.8084°E FYI.
The understated thing about the DoorDash issue was drivers. The issues I had when I walked into restaurants and said I was picking up a DoorDash order... It was a nightmare, and the reason I stopped driving for DoorDash.
Indonesian here. The Jakarta government passed a law that require people driving car to bring at least 3 people so they can have high occupancy. This law is created to bypass the gridlock. However, people realize there are business opportunity for people who drive a car alone. They can rent a car jockey so you can bypass the rules
You should do a part 2 for Google ai. Their main advertised revenue stream is, if i recall, websites, which are now getting bypassed in favor of the ai they made to replace them. Uh-oruborous.

Speaking of glue in pizza... Back in the '70s, one of the chain pizza places ran a TV ad claiming their competition based their recipe in part on glue. The ad was pulled almost immediately, but it sure stuck in my head.

The worst is most probably any school cafeteria workers qualifying for retirement, did just that to obtain more lucrative employment opportunities. Also, ones with only a couple of years experience left as well, with ones on the fence weighing their options, including demanding equality in pay. School districts, bureaucrazies and elected governmental politicians did not factor this into budgets nor legislation.
I remember hearing a story about Teddy Roosevelt felt sorry about deer living on a plat not having enough food. They gathered enough people to go from one end to the other. They would pay $1 for each deer captured. Nobody got anything.
I believe that is the government of Canada paying an obscene amount of money to have hunters take down deer on Vancouver Island from helicopters (instead of giving the local hunters full permission to cull without restriction)
And in 1986, Subaru dropped the rear seats, and insurance companies (like Allstate) refused to insure them in 1985 because of the back seats, and in 1986 because they didn't have a track record and weren't sure exactly how to rate the insurance on them.
Not sure if there's anything like this out here but it would be funny to see something that's a terrible idea, with the worst of intentions, but ends up backfiring in a positive way
The AI search engine results should be no surprise to anyone that knows anything about computers; there's a classic phrase in computer programming: GIGO (garbage in, garbage out). Any program, AI or otherwise, can only produce results as good as its base data. AI can see patterns, but it can't think. An AI scouring the internet for data has no way to judge if the data is true and accurate, a joke, a delusion, or a deliberate attempt at misinformation. Heck, many humans aren't good at that, so how do you expect an AI to pull it off?

What could possibly go wrong? Well let me tell you by starting a rant that insults your physical appearance and parentage. After that, I'll continue the randomly angry rant by insinuating your mental capacity is significantly lower than average and imply you vote for unfavorable politicians. Once that is complete I shall do a 180 and begin advertising a website that seems a little fishy with its promise of free money. And then to conclude things I shall insult your physical appearance once more and leave a closing string of swear-filled sentences.
@@caulairdis How did I not see this coming?!
Incredible that not only did France fail to keep that installation a secret....but that trying to led wikipedia to including the grid coordinates to it's exact location. It's 45.6531°N 3.8084°E FYI.
These videos and Remy are why I subscribe to this channel
The understated thing about the DoorDash issue was drivers. The issues I had when I walked into restaurants and said I was picking up a DoorDash order... It was a nightmare, and the reason I stopped driving for DoorDash.
Now it's the most well known secret military base in the world 😂
Gota love all the pedometer apps that were giving away the Chinese bases.
there is area 51
Kelvedon hatch “”secret”” nuclear bunker
This may be my favorite series on RUclips.
This is my favorite series. They are all awesome.
Indonesian here. The Jakarta government passed a law that require people driving car to bring at least 3 people so they can have high occupancy. This law is created to bypass the gridlock. However, people realize there are business opportunity for people who drive a car alone. They can rent a car jockey so you can bypass the rules
I think you guys are a lot smarter than me and can come up with much better material than I ever could!
These are the best videos on the internet. I rolled something special to enjoy this 🎉
Google deciding to mine Reddit of all things to train AI was a questionable move.
The nice thing about doordash was they suffered consequences from their actions.
Unlike a government
Loving these...my new guilty pleasure 🤣
And **OF COURSE** I just clicked on the link to the page about the French radio station they wanted removed. Just because. 😂😂😂😂😂
You should do a part 2 for Google ai. Their main advertised revenue stream is, if i recall, websites, which are now getting bypassed in favor of the ai they made to replace them. Uh-oruborous.
Someday we won't even have websites. We'll just tell things to an AI and it will tell them to another AI and someone else will find out about them from that AI.
Haven’t seen one of these in a while! Love these!
I don't think there were any good intentions in that last one
These are great, keep it up!
yeah that wasnt the only thing messed up with the google AI
The inaccurate and racist AI image generator, yeah, that's why nobody likes AI
These are always great. And this one didn’t miss.
Speaking of glue in pizza... Back in the '70s, one of the chain pizza places ran a TV ad claiming their competition based their recipe in part on glue. The ad was pulled almost immediately, but it sure stuck in my head.
My welcome occasional enjoyment of John Phillip Sousa music. Thanks!
Well in all fairness yes you COULD use gasoline in cooking.
This is of course, completely different from whether or not you SHOULD.
"And yeah, we put a link in the description"
I always appreciate a channel ran by mad lads who know what the audience wants.
Thank you for the link in the description. :D

Trim the jib: Trim the jib aback, or to the wrong side.
Obama HIMSELF said he was muslim in a school application
this video was a deviation from your usual type of content
and it was a great video! unlike your usual type of content
by far my favorite videos the channel puts out…erm…makes?
My favorite example of googles frankly idiotic AI is that, according to it, Star Wars has gay characters such as, and I am not making these names up, this is what it said, “Slurpi Faggi and his boyfriend Dr. Butto”
It almost makes me wish they had bought the data they trained that thing on from 4chan instead of Reddit
I see a new GMIUC video and I press like before I even watch the video. These things are always great.
Glad you're back.
-article become illegal to post in France

i swear to god "sounds like a great idea! with the best of intentions! what could possibly go wrong?!"
basically the catchphrase of this series
Did we do the California fast food $20 minimum wage law forcing companies to cut jobs, hours yet?
Too soon, we're still feeling the early effects of it.
That wasn't unintended.
@@Dargonhuman just got back from a week long water polo tournament in Cali. Hard to find fast-food places as 20% of them are closed when you look them up online. Even more are when you pull up into the parking lot -- there's no furniture in the store
@@scottharris9962 yup. I live in CA, I've been watching it happen in real time.
The worst is most probably any school cafeteria workers qualifying for retirement, did just that to obtain more lucrative employment opportunities. Also, ones with only a couple of years experience left as well, with ones on the fence weighing their options, including demanding equality in pay. School districts, bureaucrazies and elected governmental politicians did not factor this into budgets nor legislation.
I love this series
I remember hearing a story about Teddy Roosevelt felt sorry about deer living on a plat not having enough food. They gathered enough people to go from one end to the other. They would pay $1 for each deer captured. Nobody got anything.
The Sydney Island Deer Cull is looking like a candidate for this series
never heard of that one.
what happened?
I believe that is the government of Canada paying an obscene amount of money to have hunters take down deer on Vancouver Island from helicopters (instead of giving the local hunters full permission to cull without restriction)
New conspiracy theory: doordash had to recoup it's losses, so they're the ones who released the coof.
I love these keep em coming
I hope this becomes a daily segment
that doordash pizza story is so good
Chicken tax tariffs leading to bizarre modifications of subaru brat to dodge the 25 % imposed on light trucks
And in 1986, Subaru dropped the rear seats, and insurance companies (like Allstate) refused to insure them in 1985 because of the back seats, and in 1986 because they didn't have a track record and weren't sure exactly how to rate the insurance on them.
I'm so glad you made a new one.
These are some of my favorite posts.
More, I want/need MORE!
"Turns out the Internet is…well…the Internet"
No better way to sum up how that Google AI idea backfired
Hold up. You mention Google AI with the pizza glue and all, but you didn't mention the black Hitlers that the image generator made?
Did you click the link in the description? 😅
Yes. Twice, and almost went to the French page.
Not sure if there's anything like this out here but it would be funny to see something that's a terrible idea, with the worst of intentions, but ends up backfiring in a positive way
I love this series.
Putting link in the description is just diabolical
Love these!
The AI search engine results should be no surprise to anyone that knows anything about computers; there's a classic phrase in computer programming: GIGO (garbage in, garbage out). Any program, AI or otherwise, can only produce results as good as its base data. AI can see patterns, but it can't think. An AI scouring the internet for data has no way to judge if the data is true and accurate, a joke, a delusion, or a deliberate attempt at misinformation. Heck, many humans aren't good at that, so how do you expect an AI to pull it off?
Exactly. AI is getting more stupid, the more data it consumes. Cannot detect sarcasm or humour, so we're now getting GIGO on a regular basis.
The last one,😂. Internet just love malicious compliance.
I LOVE these!
I literally died when he said "f*ckSmith" 😂
You can cook with gasoline. The Coleman camping stove can be used with unleaded gasoline. It is not necessary to use white gas.
Tobacco being used as official currency in the south. The economic law "bad money pushes out good money" where everyone started using unusable tobacco to pay off taxes and debts. Then everyone making tobacco causing super inflation, then causing arson to destroy tobacco to create deflation.
So, a blacksmith is someone who works with metal and creates things... A fucksmith is someone who...?
works with fucks and creates things.. oh.. ohh, I think I'm a fucksmith. I work with fucks and create things.
Works in the bed and... creates things?
…really hates someone called Smith?
Eats glue, that ones for sure
Babe, babe! Get in here! Another Unintended Consequences just dropped!!!
I like this episode because it shows that it's not just that there are dumbasses in government they are all around us. And if we are honest with ourselves we from time to time are also the dumbasses.
Best one yet.
