More data for the data monster

Listen, me hearties…

You can only stave off model collapse so long.

It’s only a matter of time before most of the data going in to LLMs came out of one too.

Like I’m not even good at math or anything, much less computer science, but that seems obvious and inevitable to me.

Maybe someone smarter than me can chime in.

Except the very worst perverts.

Maybe but it’s like crack for CEOs

Yeah it’s basically the enshitification model

Discovery is going to be wlid

What’s crazy about this, at least to me, is that you have in Emily Blunt one of the best at using and changing her voice in her acting. I always think of her and Tom Hardy as the best in this area. It’s like they are voice acting on top of their normal acting. That’s a poor way to describe it, but it’s the best I can do.

I don’t want to take anything away from any other aspect of Emily Blunt’s toolkit as an actor. But using AI for any aspect of her voice acting is like trading a Bentley for a fucking Daewoo.

I’ve just been listening to the Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of The Bicameral mind and your username is a word I had to learn in the process.

I’d gasp but I don’t want to get the hiccups.

In a functioning society I think that would be criminal.

It’s like tattooing your new girlfriend’s name on your ass.

I would have to go and download an ad, and then upload it, and then select it from new additions in order to hear an ad on Plexamp.

But the subscription model is the framework for fuckery here.

It wasn’t long ago that subscribing to something, implied a consistent (usually periodical) delivery of actual goods or services that were in some way distinct from the previous periods good or services. Issue #33 is different from #32. March’s soup of the month is different than February’s.

And you could hold issue #33 in one hand and #32 in another hand and directly interact with two months worth of that subscription.

The tech bro idea of innovation is to get two revenue streams from each customer; keep us paying for the same thing over and over but never owning it, and sell our data to advertisers. The fact that they are also showing ads to subscribers is just dripping lemon juice in the paper cut because they can. They were already making money off that data.

I don’t understand, are you basing your critiques of the openly fake religion solely on this 20 year old article or is that supposed to mean something else?

Is your critique of their views on women based on the quote about strippers? If so I do find that odd since women aren’t mentioned at all. Is there an assumption at work on your part that stripper = woman?

I’m keen to know more about your critique, and I’d love to hear your critiques of all the other similarly fake religions.

One more question if you’ll entertain it: What do you think is the most harmful doctrine of Rastafarianism and what do you think is the most harmful doctrine of your religion?

I am a pastafarian minister, should anyone be in need of services

Ironically it is comments like these that led to Reddit gold. But thank you kind stranger for saving me having to descend into The Depths for this.

In other words, everyone is vulnerable to this totally new form of hazard if they use these “tools”.
