I wonder if AI would ever be not shit, if that could actually be an interesting thing. Like at the end of the day you sit down with a cup of tea and a biscuit and put on a podcast. But instead of it being about some random topic, it's about the meetings you had today.

They discuss what you were wearing and how tired you looked. How you obviously cleaned up a bit in view of the camera, but didn't guess the angle right so some mess was still visible. They spend about 30 minutes on how you had prepared a talking point, made your arguments and had everyone on board, until Steve made a simple remark that destroyed your standpoint and had everyone laughing at you. They speculate a bit about your childhood and how today will impact the future. The upcoming review gets mentioned, but the host stamps down on that, as that's a topic for a future episode and it'll be an extra long episode with special guests. Somehow there's a sponsor spot for anti-pressants? Not sure what that's all about.

Alas we'll never have that whimsical flavor of distopia, just the regular shit flavored one.

The entire “AI” industry feels built on the premise that you never have to get permission for things.

And coming at a time where some states say you need permission to run an OS on your own computer.

When you're AI they let you do it

Paywall free, but makes you part of a DDOS attack

Then provide a paywall free link from an archiver that doesn't DDOS...

[–] JensSpahnpasta@feddit.org 2 points 1 hour ago

Yeah, that's the problem: There is no paywall-busting archiver that doesn't DDOS. If you know one, let me know.

Hopefully everybody here is using an adblocker that renders this DDoS non-functional.
