"garbage in, garbage out" my beloathed

Not the first time this has happened Google's own AI overviews have misinterpreted u/fucksmith, eaten rocky onions and hallucinated cats on the moon before) but this is probably the worst such incident

Anyways, sidenote time:

Right now, there's no legal precedent determining whether or not "AI overviews" like Google's are protected under Section 230, but between shit like this and the recent lawsuit against character.ai, I suspect there's gonna be plenty of effort to deny them Section 230 protection.

If that happens, I expect it will put an immediate end to public-facing autoplag like this, as such products immediately become legal timebombs waiting to go off. I suspect it will also kill any future attempts at AI for the foreseeable future, for similar reasons.

As for AI as a concept, which I've discussed previously, I expect this incident will help further a public notion of "artificial intelligence" being an oxymoronic concept, and of intelligence being something that either cannot be replicated by artificial means, or something which should not be replicated by artificial means.

Update: The QRTs are mainly sneering, but this one's particularly good

EDIT: Against my better judgment, I'm letting another sidenote come out:

If you wanna encourage people to drop the master/slave naming scheme, this guy probably gave you a good bit of ammo. Changing a random naming scheme is a pretty low-priority task under most circumstances, but it gets a lot more tempting when it lets you distance yourself from people like this

Why do I get the feeling we're gonna see a colossal tech crash

YouTube rolled out a new dogshit AI feature and it near-immediately accused someone of being the meme behind the slaughter:

"Positive is that if you didn't tell someone it was GenAI, they might not notice!"

Nah, they'd be able to immediately tell from just how fucking garbage it is

There are a few art sites that swiftly banned AI art before they got flooded (with Newgrounds and FurAffinity the most well-known).

Alongide the decentralised solutions you mentioned earlier, those sites should also come out okay once the dust settles.

This Is Financial Advice would've been a much better video to make that point with - that video was about a financial doomsday cult centered around a dying mall retailer, and doesn't start going into anything particularly heavy until near the end.

No clue why they'd willingly accept crypto - they aren't doing anything that'd have credit card companies running for the hills.
