For “us” e.g. the users of the federated platforms i’d prefer the smaller, nicer and more qualitative community we have currently.

For the users of reddit there is the ones that also want this experience (again) and i am confident they’ll find their way eventually.

For the users of reddit that just want the quick meme/outrage video and farm karma on the ever same joke-chains, i think they are in the better spot for themselves than it would become if they’d clash here with the different culture.

For society as a whole i think enshittification is necessary to drive people off of platforms eventually. I wholeheartedly agree, that the enshittified web needs to go down, but it can only come from people realizing it for themselves.

I am looking forward to the hilarity of it for a while though.

“Cooking bot, i have found this cucumber i need to use before it gets bad. What can i do with it?”

“Shove it up your rectum”

Could lead to a lot of interesting lawsuits and let a lot of MBA bros look rather stupid.

yeah, but do you want to have a small ekg device around your head, when daddy elon could be linked up directly to your brain?

I find that differentiation fir a logo silly though.

copy pasting a logo on top after the ai generated the rest really isnt that difficult.

So how would Disney know reliably that the memes are indeed made with a violation by MS?

in most countries you can. What country are you living in where one side can just declare a change to a contract without the other side agreement?

Some 180 students from Israel and overseas studying at an academic institution in Herzliya, in central Israel, are working from morning to night to monitor and foil fake news and anti-Israel propaganda on social networks and to advance the country’s point of view amid the conflict with Hamas and other Gaza terror groups, the school said.

Students in Israel are to form government-funded “covert units” to defend the country on Facebook and Twitter, it’s reported.

Israel Making Positive Strides in Uphill Battle on the Information Front

team of Israeli contractors who claim to have manipulated more than 30 elections around the world using hacking, sabotage and automated disinformation on social media has been exposed in a new investigation.

Well, not so much a conspiracy, but Israel is employing social media propaganda, similiar to the infamous russian “troll factories”. It was often very well noticeable on reddit, as sometimes two different accounts posted the exact same comment with pro Israeli talking points. Their main target is facebook and other large plattforms though.

AI tools can be very powerful, but they usually need to be tailored to a specific use case by competent people.

With LLMs it seems to be the opposite, where people not competent for ML are applying it for the broadest of use cases. Just that it looks so good they are easily fooled and lack the understanding to realize the limits.

But there is a very important Usecase too:

Writing stuff that is only read and evaluated by similiar AI tools. It makes sense to write cover letters with ChatGPT because they are demanded but never read by a human on the other side of the job application. Since the weights and stuff behind it serm to be similiar, writing it with ChatGPT helps to pass the automatic analysis.

Rationally that is complete nonsense, but you basically need an AI tool to jump through the hoops made by an AI tool applied by stupid people who need to make themselves look smart.

So modern journalists were redundant all along?

But yeah, the quality of what is passing as journalism now is often ridiculous. But the only way to combat this is by having editors that are knowledgable about topics. But it seemed editors were the first people laid off, when internet articles became a thing.
