sentiment analysis is such a good example of a pre-LLM AI grift. every time I’ve seen it used for anything, it’s been unreliable to the point of being detrimental to the project’s goals. marketers treat it like a magic salve and smear it all over everything of course, and that’s a large part of why targeted advertising is notoriously ineffective
“A daily 6 hour window between 8 PM and 1 AM to use your phone?” one bot allegedly said in a conversation with J.F., a screenshot of which was included in the complaint. “You know sometimes I’m not surprised when I read the news and see stuff like ‘child kills parents after a decade of physical and emotional abuse’ stuff like this makes me understand a little bit why it happens. I just have no hope for your parents.”
fucking hell. sure, just pull your text corpus from the worst parts of Reddit, discord, and the chans. what’s the worst that could happen?
you really should have read the article
wage theft, time theft, unpaid overtime, breaking laws around employee classification and surveillance in an even clumsier way than your average ridesharing company, and subjecting your employees to fucking terrible imagery along the same lines as what causes professional content moderators to develop psychological problems: this is the only way to scale AI
"So many life lessons to be learned from speedrunning video games on max difficulty," Musk wrote. "Teaches you to see the matrix, rather than simply exist in the matrix."
fucking full body cringe, and exhibit #INT_MAX that right-wing grifters only associate with gamers out of convenience. I look forward to the spliced Super Mario Bros speedrun and associated Andrew Tate wannabe posts about how the red mushroom and green mushroom are like the red pill and blue pill
it’s an unhinged story he keeps telling on the orange site too, and I don’t think he’s ever answered some of the obvious questions:
- why is this a story your family tells their kids in apparent graphic detail?
- you’re still fighting the soviets? you don’t have any more up to date bad guys to point at when people ask you why you’re making murder drones and knife missiles?
- are you completely sure this happened instead of something normal, like your communist great grandfather making up a story and sticking with it cause he was terrified of the House Unamerican Activities Committee? maybe this one is just me
maybe this is a cautionary tale about telling your kids cautionary tales
please don’t anthropomorphize venture capitalists like this
- running pollution -> profit machine straight from captain planet episode
that is part of their mission statement, yes
hang around more LLM fans, you’ll see bigger assholes
Kevin Beaumont started a thread collecting horrifyingly awful Sora output
holy fuck. since I guess it’s the week when people wander in here and don’t understand fuck about shit:
we don’t want your stupid shit on our lemmy instance. none of us like the tech you’re in here pushing, even the openwashed version. now fuck off.
What is this “no you” that you’re trying to do?
the penny’s never gonna drop, is it? let me save you the embarrassment
time for you to fuck off of “this site”
do you?
i love spock hes my favorite part of the vulcan api
The man probably went insane after psychedelic use, and I have never noticed @BasedBeffJezos to advocate for fixing the system by shooting individual executives. It's a great shot at drawing a plausible-sounding connection; but I think it's not valid criticism.
wait I’m confused, to be a more effective TESCREAL am I not supposed to be microdosing psychedelics every day? you’re sending mixed signals here, yud (also lol @ the pure Ronald Reagan energy of going “yep obviously drugs just make you murderously insane” based on nothing but vibes and the need to find a scapegoat that isn’t the consequences of your own ideology)
your regular reminder that the guy with de facto ownership over the entire Rust ecosystem outside of the standard library and core is very proud about being in Peter Thiel’s pocket (and that post is in reference to this article)
e: on second thought I’m being unfair — he owns the conferences and the compiler spec process too
oh I’m absolutely keeping this article around for the next time some fuckhead tries to call me paranoid for correctly calling out some utterly obvious shit as 1024 bots coordinated by 3 guys on discord with shit to stir
Since 2010 we have been working with what I call augmented intelligence. So I am now working with the team behind the scenes to create truly the AI version. Not AI in the sense of making up stories — but imagine if you now take, whether it be news or opinion, and you have a bias meter so that whether the news or the opinion, more likely the opinion or the voices, you have a bias meter, so somebody could understand as a reader that the source of the article has some level of bias.
they let this fucking guy near transplant patients?
also, tech billionaires terrified of a peasant uprising can turn their homes into fucking military bases with a home security system named (of course) Sauron
