@davidgerard antropic getting in bed with spacex is the "daaaaaamn" for today. Just look at THAT datacenter.
@davidgerard idk how new this is but I recently noticed YouTube shorts pushing a "reimagine" feature where you're prompted to use the short as the basis for an AI slop video based on it (like, take the guy in the video and make him do a little dance, or a spider falls into frame and everyone freaks out)
@davidgerard Apparently stress about ignoring/resisting use at work is bleeding into my dreams. That may not be writeable but it is annoying af personally.
@davidgerard not exactly the dumbest shit, but you see this? https://www.science.org/content/article/deepfakes-are-everywhere-godfather-digital-forensics-fighting-back?utm_campaign=Science+Magazine
@davidgerard Amazon is testing AI generated "podcasts" on product pages. Not sure if you've already covered that.
@davidgerard Feel free to take this idea, but I speculate that the tech companies that have leaderboards encouraging their engineers to token-max will switch to an Uber driver model and make their workers pay for their own tokens, and that will be hilarious/horrible.

I cannot express how angry the recent push to consider the "wellbeing" of token generators (while ignoring the wellbeing of humans) makes me.
@davidgerard Somebody on YouTube is using ChatGPT to vibe code a game in Commodore 64 BASIC.
@davidgerard Have you done Chrome's snagging 4G of storage for the local AI model it wants to use? I'm not sure that's the most stupid but certainly the most annoying.
@davidgerard the CEO slogan "AI AI AI".
@njoseph @davidgerard In Greek, this is a lament.
