A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

  1. not all of us are american
  2. your entire browsing history was already being tracked before AI was a thing

complaining about AI being (sometimes dangerously) wrong is valid. we don't need more technology polluting the internet with misinformation

It's not about being tracked, it's about how AI can take five hundred million different tracks, identify the 10,000 most vulnerable, identify which of those are the same person on different accounts and then custom create radicalization campaigns for every motherfucking one of them more compelling than anything you could meme, and then direct blast it at them. And it can do this over and over and over again, nonstop

Welcome to the bleak hell of the future internet where 98% of your engagements are bots that want to take your money or make you fight for them

And that's not even talking about how authoritarian regimes will use it to target dissidents from anonymized data.

I wonder how many will have to die before all of you shut the fuck up about the furry art theft bullshit
