They really should instead look at this and say: „Alright, big tech can‘t be trusted so we‘re breaking up tech corporations invested in AI and any company with a value of a trillion dollars or more.“

They‘re not going to, because they‘re too invested themselves but lawmakers really should draw the right conclusions here.

Actually my LLM became god by founding a religion! Join the cult now!!! Also give me your money!!! We love money!!!

Right now I‘m enjoying premium family for free but if they start shoving AI in my face I won‘t use it at all anymore. I‘m already very annoyed by their obviously (and I‘m pretty sure technically illegally) paid for „recommendations“ on the home page and their stupid audio book credit system. I already wouldn‘t pay for Spotify premium myself in it‘s current form.

Insert „We are sorry“ clip from Southpark here.

It would be if not all the wrong people profited from it.

Articles always had em dashes in them. It‘s a sign of AI in internet posts and comments but not so much in longer text forms I believe. The „It‘s not A. it‘s B!“ thing is really suspicious though. I think it‘s AI too.

Definitely a mix of both. I estimate bot pollution is likely growing much faster than natural Linux desktop adoption, though. Simply because LLM based bots are appearing everywhere. I wouldn‘t be surprised if Linux Desktop breaks the 25% mark soon just because of bots.

Zipping files was never enough to secure them in the cloud. It‘s always recommended to properly encrypt sensitive data properly before you upload it. Whether you use OneDrive, Google Drive, Proton drive or whatever.

Still amazing how far Microslop goes to sniff through your stuff preemptively, though. Your cloud storage should be none of their business but sadly it‘s their entire business now. Privacy laws should definitely extend to digital space you rent no matter the circumstances.

If cloud providers argue that‘s too dangerous then they simply shouldn‘t be in business. If a government says it‘s too dangerous then they shouldn‘t be in power. Obviously they don‘t trust in the people who voted for them. Therefore they don‘t trust democracy and are therefore fundamentally undemocratic and a danger to the people.

And that‘s exactly the problem. Somehow this guy has earned a lot of trust and he wasn‘t handling that trust very well. That‘s why people who stand for something like him, should be held accountable and to higher standards than say your aunt posting AI cats with hats in the family group chat.

I‘m a little surprised how easy Lemmy goes on a millionaire Youtuber who refuses to take actual responsibility of his actions. Mind you, there are worse things than producing slob but people really believed in that guy. And all he offers is a non-apology first where he stated that he doesn‘t really remember. Followed by saying AI psychosis made him do it. Just be an adult, man. That‘s all I‘m asking.

Taking breaks is not what creators do anymore after a backlash as it kills the channel. He will keep posting stuff. Maybe even ride the anti AI wagon for engagement. He‘s a content creator through and through.

For me it’s just another disconnected millionaire Youtuber. But he‘s kind of blaming AI or rather his relationship with LLMs for this dilemma instead of actually reflecting on himself. If he thinks simply abstaining from using LLMs will establish a connection to the people he‘s dead wrong and will likely fall back on AI in no time.

I don‘t know why his political opinions would be worth a headline. He was a Hillary Clinton supporter, calls himself socialist but also vehemently anti-woke, and thinks immigrants equal crime. He may have studied philosophy in Frankfurt but his statements have overall been completely nuts so far. I don‘t think he has it all together.

I don‘t think that comparison works either because you get a new phone for completely unrelated reasons than the door but you only get new keys under rare circumstances. The new phone scenario probably happens more than 5 times as frequently.

With SpaceX we actually have a company that has a real incentive to wreck the planet and that should have everyone concerned.

It‘s so disheartening to see intelligent and somewhat tech savvy people around me buy into it. They treat these things almost like they‘re living beings and offload more of their own thinking capacity to chatbots. No amount of explaining how this is just one of countless publicity stunts can convince them. They‘re acting like I‘m the one who just doesn‘t understand technology while they‘re letting word salad influence how they think or even IF they think.

I am convinced of that. They only feared bad press but they have no reason whatsoever to stop.
