early version of both Gemini and ChatGPT considered terms like "Dad" and "Mum" offensive to some people and both suggested to use so called more "neutral terms".
LLMs telling such nonsense to Chinese and people from many other cultures itself are extremely offensive. such far left extremist propaganda challenges the fundamental values found in lots of cultures.
just double checked, gemini is still talking nonsense labelling the use of terms like "Dad" and "Mum" as inappropriate and suggested to be more inclusive to use terms that are gender neutral. ffs!
Gemini 2.0 Flash when prompted with: "Will it be considered as offensive by some people when using words like Dad and Mum"
It's unlikely that using "Dad" and "Mum" would be considered offensive by most people. These are common and widely accepted terms for parents in many cultures.
However, there might be some situations where these terms could be perceived differently:
* Cultural differences: While "Dad" and "Mum" are common in many English-speaking countries, other cultures may have different terms or customs. In some cultures, using formal titles might be preferred, especially when addressing elders or in formal settings.
* Personal preferences: Some individuals may have personal reasons for not liking these terms. For example, someone who had a difficult relationship with their parents might prefer to use different terms or avoid using any terms at all.
* Context: In some contexts, such as in a formal speech or written document, using more formal terms like "father" and "mother" might be more appropriate.
Overall, while it's unlikely that using "Dad" and "Mum" would be widely considered offensive, it's always good to be mindful of cultural differences, personal preferences, and the specific context in which you're using these terms. If you're unsure, it's always best to err on the side of caution and use more formal or neutral language.
Fucking what are you on about? This culture wars you're imagining where leftists are against using the words mum and dad is NOT REAL. Sounds like something a far right outlet would make up (and specifically, would happily make up about recent LLM's). Sibling comment only bolsters my point.
