    its not even selling access to the library tho, its someone standing in front of the library retelling, in their own words, what is in the books and also including things that aren’t in any books or media but sounds like they might be.

    This happened because we let “business” morons and product managers take over. This is what they do. They arrive with their gigantic Dening-Kruger syndrom and fuck everything up.

    Save a computer, eat a marketer.

      Psst… It’s Dunning-Kruger.

      If they did that it’d make it even easier to run it through an AI detector which would show it was AI generated.

      Go type it out and repost get more points and have it become the norm. No one owes you anything it’s free.

        The original has been posted before and the irony of criticizing stolen work using a stolen post is just too much for me, sorry.

    The AI products are not worth billions, it is all marketing bullshit.

    • tazeycrazy@feddit.uk ⁨19⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      It’s worth billions the same way a fire is worth billions if you shovel cash into it.

    The worst is that a significant proportion of the answers or information you get from them are wrong.

    This sounds familiar…

    You posted all that stuff on ad-driven websites, you already handed it to them to turn into a product.

    • Obituarykidney@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      That’s… The point of the post. They’re talking about ai specifically, but everything is monetized these days. Including people chatting with each other online.

      source
      • yucandu@lemmy.world ⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        And my point is that it isn’t “these days”, it was always monetized.

    Time to create the internet 2?

    I mean, the library is still there. You don’t have to use those products (yet at least…)

      A lot of knowledge is lost. The forums are shutting down, because people moved to Reddit - or discord. Then people deleted their Reddit posts, and discord isn’t public.

    Far more than mildly infuriating

    • foggy@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Mildly catastrophic.

    Silver lining: we have always and will always exist, they will only exist intermittently. We have always, and will always out number them.

    Optimistic: glacial progress is still progress.

    Pessimistic: Why bother planting a tree who’s shade you will never enjoy.

    The only way we can truly fail is to adopt their mercenary “what’s in it for me” way of thinking.

    All of this is on the first page of the Bible. AI must be up to something.

    It’s hilarious to me that no one here so far realizes the copy of the post itself was written by AI.

    source
    • AviAdi@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      “the copy of the post itself” wtf are you talking about? What copy?

      source
      • kromem@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        The writing. The words on the images. ‘Copywriting’

        I’m assuming you pulled the image from elsewhere, but it’s clearly been written by AI. I knew it even before I bothered checking.

        Pangram result for OP’s image
