While both “hot questions” appear that cannot be shared it seems to be a bug, as exiting and re-entering the chat makes it clickable again and it happened on the Minecraft chat too.

“Hey, Reddit, who’s a greedy little pigboy?”
I don’t like this. Not because its AI, but because AI is still too new for me to trust it to be factually accurate. If I want to see a summary or whatever, I just implicitly do not trust whatever it generates to be true and end up ignoring the AI part.
Maybe it can advance enough to stop hallucinating and it might be more useful in this use case, but for now I just don’t trust it to be factually correct.
The answers are phrased very matter of factly, and are often wrong. The information they’re derived from is often incorrect or contradictory, so it does its best to reconcile its inputs but there’s no way to do so. AI will lack the ability to take a holistic look at these questions for decades.
The silliest are the opinions, which it pulls from only a few comments on a topic and offers with the cadence of a scientific paper. “Blue has been observed to be the best color.” It’s ridiculous.
Oh, look Reddit embracing AI. Weird since I would think the user base majority would condemn AI. This is evidence that social media apps are just about $$$$.
