Study finds what sponsored content means
It’s anyone surprised by this?
And Claude too. As I did find out.
As designed.
I’m so glad I was sitting down when I read this.
TIL AI companies have sponsored answers.
How can I abuse this?
Well no fucking shit Sherlock, they are peddling it like a drug “reality is harsh here’s something to help you escape from it” and gullible people are going in head first.
It’s like when the internet first came about for the general public, and we had to constantly remind people, “Don’t believe everything you read. Nobody has to tell the truth.” I’m still unsure if we learned that lesson, but unlike the internet, AI is additionally and already largely hated by a majority of people.
I can see how you may find this news upsetting, I suggest you talk to your doctor about Lexapro to help you through these times.
Would you like to know more about how Lexapro is already being shipped to your home?
*favor. Not fav our.
The obvious end goal of the push for LLMs. Centralized control over information that can be used to bend public opinion and trends.
The biggest end goal is scanning everyone’s data that we will only be able to store in the cloud because they bought all the storage and memory. This is useful far beyond advertising.
But yes, skewing public opinion is part 2 of that.
The spy agencies finally got their mind control except this is America so it’s also privatized.
Running everything said or done, online or off, all connected to people and their face and ID, through AI threat detection, to make secret social scores to be used against us I would add. Age checks are to further that purpose, as are the masterbaitorbases of the UK and shitholy red states in the US.
They will then allow the AI to decide on deploying assassin drones on unfavorable people and to run propaganda.
The past was alterable. The past never had been altered. Oceania was at war with Eastasia. Oceania had always been at war with Eastasia.
the closed-source version of the internet.
“What a great observation! Now why don’t we both kick back with a nice relaxing glass of Coke Zero?”
Always has been. Not so different from giant physical billboards everywhere in the early 20th century
it’s always about power
This is why open source AI is necessary!
We need an open source search engine as much as anything right now.
Federated DMOZ or bust
That sounds like a great idea, I didn’t even know about this until I looked it up just now, Directory Mozilla, that somehow got bought up by aol which got bought by yahoo which killed it.
Your answer proudly brought to you by Palantir.
You could say the same things about search engines for the past 6 years.
Sponsored content however would include a lot more clients paying them than what they may label sponsored content.
We need an amplified version of the surprised Pikachu meme for some of these AI news. Literally everyone saw it coming. Especially AI bros who lied through their teeth when they claimed it wouldn‘t.
Literally everyone saw it coming.
Many people aren’t paying attention. Many people are like pathologically gullible.
The average person just… if you’re smart and capable, imagine being drunk. Being drunk all the time. That’s the baseline. Myopic, impatient, emotional.
Maybe if we had better education and less capitalist hellscape people could be a little better.
Didn’t they announce weeks ago they were going to start doing this?
