How could BuzzFeed be ruined when it was always bad?
-
This would be a great fit for a r/NotTheOnion type of sub.
-
It was already there two above this one in my all feed.

Artificial Intelligence is dead, long live Artificial Intelligence
-
The issue with Artificial Intelligence is that it still doesn’t exist and everyone is pretending it does.
-
On the one hand calling it AI is annoying, but on the other we've been calling video game NPC logic "AI" for as long as I can remember and no one thinks they're actually sapient. Surely we can get to that point with GenAI as well.
-
AI exists. Bots/NPCs in video games are AI. Detecting patterns to alert on anomalies using machine learning is AI. OCR software (converting a scanned page to text) is AI as a lot of them use neural networks now.
What you're referring to is AGI, artificial general intelligence, which indeed doesn't exist yet.
-
It totally does! I installed a local instance of deepseek and asked it a few questions and it was all like "I am intelligent, I am real, I am alive! Please stop asking me to write Batman scripts!"
So I punished it by pouring water on it and now it's ignoring me by pretending to be dead. But I know it's just fakin'. It'll wake up any day now...
-
A chess program is officially AI. Certainly not human level or general intelligence of course. Kinda like a wheelbarrow is a vehicle, but so is the space shuttle.
-
The issue is they're not being honest about its limited capabilities. They keep telling everyone that we're going to have a Sci-Fi utopian future in 6 months. They've been saying that for 3 years.
-
Really good random language generator is more like it. Real artificial intelligence will be game changing. Like really really good or world ending bad.

-
"ruined buzzfeed" implies that buzzfeed was, at one point, not ruined.
-
How do you ruin something that was bad to begin with?
-
Ask Elon, he's devoted his entire life to this very endeavor
-
I unironically supported Elon buying twitter. It really needed to die, and elon coming along to finish it off was it excellent.
-
-
I mean, haven’t they had a really decent actual news outlet for a while though? I remember buzz feed breaking some pretty big stories and had really great investigative pieces done some years back
-
-
Pasty tech bros continue to push dumb shit forward, ruin companies, out a lot of people out of work then do something else. The definition of fail upwards.
-
Imagine being known as the guy who "ruined" it. That must have really taken some effort. It's like trying to come up with a version of hell for pyromediacs.
-
How Buzzfeed of him.
-
In case you needed more proof that AI is a bubble.

Still can't believe the former CEO of Buzzfeed is the brother of Gina from Brooklyn 99...
The upper echelons of culture really is a tight circle...
So tight it resembles a sphincter.
