Bothers me that much of this data has been collected without explaining what its intended purpose is. All those captchas that want you to pick out cars or bikes etc, Pokemon game that wants you to scan locations for free items… It simply never occurred to me that these were actually just ways to train AI surreptitiously
That is certainly a possible solution. However I also think a lot of folks simply don’t have the time to commit in addition to their regular jobs and responsibilities. Guess that’s how we wound up with so wealthy people in politics… they got all that free time ⏰ (and they think they know what’s best for everyone else too, perhaps? 🙃)
Seriously, how far does that excuse get anyone? “Well everyone didn’t vote for him so whatever” and he says “Yeah they did 🥴” and proceeds to do whatever tf he wants anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You should seriously consider running for office. You might have the energy and wherewithal to reshape the liberal party into something halfway worthwhile 🤌
“someone told me there’s a girl out there, with love in her eyes and flowers in her hair”
Damn is that a great little tune, such a warm sound too
The trump admin couldn’t be bothered to keep the children and parents together while caging immigrants last time–why would anyone expect him to differentiate the legals from the illegals?
He was still buffering
But they’ll have stragglers just the same as any major social media site. Even though many here have standards they won’t easily abandon, there are scores of people that won’t even know if/when AI started being used on the site or would care enough to leave if they did.
Plus every time we leave a platform we need to find or build a new one. The time it takes to get others to migrate and develop into a worthwhile community is hard to predict and it may not even work out. It sucks social media is such shit anymore, but it seems inevitable that it will remain that way given the landscape of the Internet at this point.
I say this as someone who’s drifted from Fark to Digg to Reddit to Lemmy over the past 20-25 years 🎈 (zero loyalty as well)
They don’t care where the money comes from, and at this point they know there’s no cost to their reputation for doing shit like this either.
That’s been my thought the whole time–this is really just a play to get Project 2025 off the ground and Vance is one of “their guys”
It’s so fucking stupid but in this timeline it has to be as mind-numbingly stupid as possible. Attorney General Gaetz anyone? 🤣
So far. I’ll be interested to see if she pens any follow-ups to this tale.
Let them. They need to experience the world they apparently want, and there’s nothing we can do to reverse course at this point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Well, what do you need then?
Any chance you have any suggestions for any “buy it for life” items from your own experience?
No prob! Just here to not help
He’s gonna age really gracefully, somehow i can see it already lol
Sounds cool!! Good luck with the project! EMI is one of those things I’d never even consider until i got way into a project like that, then have to reverse course and try a new approach with that in consideration. Gotta learn somehow though, lol!
Holy shit I’m 1000% with you, my jaw dropped when it was confirmed by the report of an inmate being “beaten to the point of full body paralysis” 😶
Guess i was asleep that day 😬
