  I’m more impressed that they found buyers for my drunk shit posts.

  Those can’t possibly be good for AI.

    When then announced they’d be selling content for AI training, I went back to my old abandoned Reddit accounts and slightly altered all of my previous posts with actual content to be factually incorrect and misleading in subtle ways. It took me two months to rewrite everything, a few old posts at a time per day.

    Now whatever technical or historical stuff I posted on Reddit is wrong and AI is training on that.

      Even if you’re not directly responsible for AI suggesting that you can make pizza cheese stringier by adding wood glue*, you’re still doing good work

      * which is technically true, in that this is the technique used to get this effect in adverts

  I’m glad that I ran the script to replace 99% of my content with >!CENSORED!< , they can monetize it all they want 😆
