Artificial Intelligence (2 Viewers)

I'm having a doomsday having read various news about AI in the last days so I wrote a bit about it on substack if anyone is interested

Walking blindly into AI

The rabbit hole is calling...

I read a great theory the other day which kind of explained that we don’t need ai, but the ai companies need us to need it, hence why it’s being fed into every facet of life if we want it or not (it’s popping up in PowerPoint! My Mail account! WhatsApp!)

Commercially it needs us to be dependent on it so that’s what the companies are pushing for.

Disney making $1 billion investment in OpenAI, will allow characters on Sora AI video generator

Disney is investing in OpenAI and has licensed its iconic characters like Mickey Mouse, Ariel and Iron Man to be used in the Sora AI video generator.

The Mouse goes all in.

Thats really interesting in that they're licensing Disney IP. From a brand perspective it's smart to limit use of that IP to a platform they have equity in.

It does mean we're going to see the AI world become a legal battefield though.
 
Obsessed with Sabrina the Teenage Witch being fooled by an obvious AI fake dress from one of these junk websites:

 
Haha Ms Ron fell for it once, thought she was getting a dress covered in big sequins and it was just a printed picture of the sequin dress on the fabric! Proper shit.

Normalise preferring even an extremely basic ms paint doodle that comes from a human soul over “nice looking” soulless AI slop
 
"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past"

*feeds into AI*

"So we all lived happily ever after, the end."
 
Turn hard books:

Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta.

She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock. She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita. Did she have a precursor? She did, indeed she did. In point of fact, there might have been no Lolita at all had I not loved, one summer, an initial girl-child. In a princedom by the sea. Oh when? About as many years before Lolita was born as my age was that summer. You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, exhibit number one is what the seraphs, the misinformed, simple, noble-winged seraphs, envied. Look at this tangle of thorns...

Into easy books:

Theres this girl called Lola, right. Hear me out...
 
I do feel all the AI articles and similar that flood our feeds (when we don't even follow the accounts) is to make us doubt real images/news and be desensitised, but shouldn't it be illegal to post AI content that isn't labelled as such? I'd definitely support that over the waste of time of verifying your age for porn that they felt was important. There's a seemingly verified "BBC Culture" page on Facebook and it's clearly AI. I don't have the energy to keep blocking these profiles.
 
My company are having an "AI Festival" this week, and the latest session is on "how AI can improve your mental wellness"

And I don't have anything insightful or constructive to say. But I do just want to use this Moopy safe space to SCREAM LOUDLY

Because I can't think of anything more REPULSIVE but I can't say anything aloud in real life as all of my colleagues have either drunk (or feel they need to pretend to drink) the corporate kool-aid

Take some of the MOUNTAINS of evidence showing its fucking TERRIBLE at giving good advice about mental health
 
I feel like I’m losing my mind. The amount of people who use it WITHOUT SHAME is baffling to me. Is this how flat earthers feel?
 
My work put up a slide with the three phases of AI. The second phase was “digital colleagues” - they have an email address, teams chat etc and would basically do the work of graduate :manson:

I asked if in terms of AI if job losses would be handled sensitively and was told it doesn’t mean job losses it means doing more with the same people 👀👀

I argued that on the presentation it says “digital colleagues” which sounds like job losses to me then I was told the argument about the Industrial Revolution (which AI itself debunks quite nicely) and a nice story about a town in the Netherlands where they trailed AI and the town was dripping in money apparently and all the people in the town just did LEISURE and the people telling me this were just sucking this up wholesale like not even questioning how this entire town were able to afford all this LEISURE without any jobs 🤡
 
Found out they didn’t fire the AI accounts assistant they just disabled it from contacting me!

It’s still terrorising everyone else.

I bet some of these were commissioned through a graphic designer though and just chucked into AI and £200 taken.

Like the huge uproar because there was some slop in Fortnite and everyone believed it had come direct from an Epic CEO. Nah someone who works on the game couldn’t be arsed to do their job imo
 
I just think it’s making everyone lazy and stupid and gullible and soulless. Like it’s clearly going to be disastrous to humanity, and everyone knows this but CEOs don’t care as long as it delivers MORE PROFITS.

To sort of back this up, I had a kid of 9 at the school I was in last term confidently tell me that there was no need for him to go to school, because he's got ChatGPT to ask/do everything for him so he'd just use that instead. I despaired.
