They‘re made in two different countries but you‘re basically still right I guess.

Data centers and wasting massive amounts of resources. Name a more iconic duo.

AI has no agency. It can‘t go rogue. It just does what it‘s made to do, not necessarily what it‘s supposed to do.

Oh I know a good one too! A tankie goes into a bar, does a little whataboutism.

Seriously you people are in desperate need of new material. You won‘t win anyone over with „US bad too!“ We know, but it‘s off topic here.

There was a media company in Switzerland that advertised chatrooms with your favorite influencers and many many german Influencers advertised it and told people how happy they would be just to have 1on1 chats with their fans.

Of course it turned out it was a huge scam and even though a lot of the advertised influencers were female, the overwhelming majority of paid chatters from the media company were of course guys. Some of those chats got steamy too and the company briefed their staff to love bomb and exploit their customers as much as possible. They even went as far as to fake soft porn images of the influencers they officially worked with.

There was a lot of drama, pointing fingers between influencers and the media company and legal prosecution. But most exploited fans will never see their money back or get damages for being systematically emotionally abused.

This seems to be the business model of our times. It‘s only more obvious with OF but there are parallels to many booming industries.

It‘s standard „China is 50 years ahead of us!!!“ type media coverage and a core part of Chinese propaganda. They always make these spectacular claims and by the time experts and peer reviews chime in to debunk it or at least express serious doubts there‘s already another wild technology breakthrough claim from China. They know it takes a magnitude of effort to debunk fake news so they‘re always faster than people who actually have to read through their often AI generated slop studies. Even when the tech is technically real it‘s usually blown out of proportions. Even when they accomplish impressive tasks they coat it in lies. That‘s just how Chinese propaganda operates. You have to doubt everything.

Who owns the means of production that make industris more efficient? Bingo.

I swear it‘s like people don‘t even know who or what Karl Marx is.

All so they can sell AI produced goods on their AI driven platform to AI users because none of us will have jobs.

It‘s said you should be nice to secretaries because they hold a lot of soft power in an office. Now people give that kind of power over their lives to tech giants who already know way too much about them. This is bad for society. Full stop.

I‘m surprised they even had that. The average Instagram user probably doesn‘t even know what that means.

Much like Adobe‘s Acrobat which I also have to use for work. At least from what I can tell when it suddenly summarizes a PDF. There‘s no way in hell that happens locally. But the fact that it seemingly automatically processes potentially sensitive data from customers didn‘t even do as little as raising eyebrows when I brought it up.

Meanwhile SpaceX spends billions launching thousands of satellites into space and wreck the environment just so people can doomscroll their slop. When all we need are governments building some basic infrastructure like fiber internet for a fraction of the money.

Finally! A use case for AI! Oh wait we already knew it‘s used in all sorts of scams and criminal activity.

At the end of the day they still want things to look flashy of course. They know they need a thumbnail to stick out. They don‘t value creative work because it‘s hard to measure and it‘s everywhere. So the question emerges „Oh, how hard can it be when it is everywhere?“ That sentiment is multiplied times 10 since image generation became a thing. The internet already looks like a soulless slop machine because creative work is undervalued but still needed everywhere.

They probably have no one who can photoshop „44TB“ on a Hard Drive and don‘t think it‘s worth hiring someone on Fiverr to do it. Media designers, being the creatives that they are were always undervalued and among the first to lose their jobs to AI.

Probably cheaper than tens of thousands of satellites.

While BOTW is a masterpiece in my opinion, it‘s not a Switch exclusive. You don‘t even need a Switch or Switch emulator to play it. Many people even recommend emulating the WiiU version specifically. The WiiU is a much better platform for Zelda games anyway.

Xitter or xAI shouldn‘t be allowed anyway and California cyberlaws are bonkers. I would hope both instances tear each other apart.

I see. So who‘s going to jail for this? No one again? Damn we need to start sentencing entire companies to jail time. Everything should be frozen and shareholders shouldn‘t be able withdraw stocks until the time is served.
