Maybe we could start making more slop memes, to outbalance the possible usefulness of AI ?

Play with algorithms and datasets if you want, but make it efficient. We don't need thousands of data centers guzzling water and electricity and disturbing the peace just to generate wrong answers and slop. Work on the algorithms, don't just scale up the slop.

Microsoft angle is that they can run their AI on your documents and files (it’s all on OneDrive now remember?) and “know” about you and the world as a whole collectively at all times. The panopticon wet dream of advertisers and governments alike. Plus hardware will be too expensive for plebs and we’ll all have scaled back dumb terminal tablets that connect to Microsoft Azure Copilot Windows for $49.99/month

The only thing I use AI for is a fancy choose your own adventure book.

Do they do different dialogue styles well? I could see using it for NPC chatter
