Google’s AI-driven Search Generative Experience have been generating results that are downright weird and evil, ie slavery’s positives.

    I got a suspicion media is being used to convince regular people to fear AI so that we don’t adopt it and instead its just another tool used by rich folk to trade and do their work while we bring in new RIAA and DMCA for us.

    Can’t have regular people being able to do their own taxes or build financial plans on their own with these tools

      AI is eventually going to destroy most cookie-cutter news websites. So it makes sense.

        Ah, it won’t. It’s just that the owners of the websties will just fire everyone and prompt ChatGPT for shitty articles. Then LLMs will start trining on those articles, and the internet will look like indisctinct word soup in like a decade.

          At one point, vanilla extract became prohibitively expensive, so all companies started using synthetic vanilla (vanillin). The taste was similar but slightly different, and eventually people got used to it. Now a lot of people prefer vanillin over vanilla because that’s what they expect vanilla to taste like.

          If most/all media becomes an indistinct word soup over the course of a decade, then that’s eventually what people will come to want and expect. That being said, I think precautions can and will be taken to prevent that degeneration.
