    It's okay, I stole it from whatever subreddit however many years ago

  • But you had all these rightwing weirdos complaining they were being censored because "the algorithm" didn't promote their weird little ideas enough!

    Back when.So tweaking the algorithm is quite literally censorship!

    Not that this "free-speech absolutist" has proven particularly true to his word.

  • Though still active, my Gmail now forwards everything to Proton Mail. It's not as nice, though very serviceable for the not-particularly-high volume of e-mail I receive.

  • Not just that; they collude with webshops to purposefully not show you the best deal. Webshops which sign up can select their target discount, if any.

    So, besides affiliate hijacking, it is also false advertising.

  • AI hallucinates and generates jibberish when you're asking it to generate text about edge cases and knowledge bases which aren't commonly talked about.

    I've had AI give me examples which were could've been right but were wrong in the given context. I don't find it too difficult to believe it could use details from one file format to supplant knowledge for another.

    Go ask chat.openai.com

    (The current version of) ChatGPT may not be the ai used to generate these articles.

    The website that she refers to in her video, and the massively wrong verbiage in the paragraphs proceeding, is definitely not "AI Slop"

    That's may be true for some, but the hourlong podcast 'discussion' on the file format was definitely AI generated.

  • According to the company, CMG Local Solutions’ access to advertising data based on voice and other data is collected by third-party platforms and devices “under the terms and conditions provided by those apps and accepted by their users.”

    In the since-deleted blog post, CMG Local Solutions discusses whether Active Listening is legal. “We know what you’re thinking. Is this even legal? The short answer is: yes. It is legal for phones and devices to listen to you. When a new app download or update prompts consumers with a multi-page terms of use agreement somewhere in the fine print, Active Listening is often included,” the company said in the post.

  • Some time ago I happened to get ik a conversation with a Jehovah's Witness, finding out they didn't believe in evolution was so surreal.I didn't have a way to go against the arguments they put up at the time, about how it's only a "theory", which is a shame.

  • Except it is also listening. This was a minor scandal back in September. I believe Cox media has since been dropped by Facebook and Google and such, but it happened.

    What's Happening: In a pitch deck that has surfaced since the initial story broke out, Cox Media Group (CMG), a digital marketing outfit based out of Atlanta, Georgia, was spotted touting “the power of voice” in a pitch. In it, they outlined how they can use AI to collect and analyze voice data from users through more than 470 sources.
