I’ve only ever really watched this unfold with a causal interest, so whilst I’d like to know more, that article really said very little aside from a few dates and numbers.

More so, and the reason I’m making this comment, is the whole thing felt 100% like the second output of a GPT print. That format of “why is this the way it is? There at several reasons…” followed by a bunch of points that barely address the question, let alone answer it. That and the random bolder phrases.

Still, maybe is had more work put into it than Star Citizen?

Well said! I’m still wondering what happens when the enviable ouroboros of AI content referencing AI content referencing AI content makes the whole internet a self perpetuating mess of unreadable content and makes anything of value these companies once gained basically useless.

Would that eventually result in fresh, actual human created content only coming from social media? I guess clauses about using your likeness will be popping up in TikTok at some point (if they aren’t already)

“Look Raymond, a yellow crested warbler”

I’m fearful if I add anymore, it may reach mozzarella singularity. No life, only moz

A great day for Canada, and therefore the world.

I’m guessing they meant SEO - Search Engine Optimisation. It’s much more complex than this, but essentially finding high volume search terms and writing website content based around those terms so your page shows up higher organically.

It’s why recipe pages or simple how to guides have paragraphs semi related text that sounds like it was written by committee. The content needs to be human readable, otherwise Google flags it as spammy, but at the same time it only serves to drive up clicks based on those search terms.

Well, you’ve encouraged me to make a comment! And given me a great community to watch Lemmy grow!

Thanks for all your amazing work! I know just enough about SQL to know I know next nothing, but could someone intelligent explain how databases are publicly accessible for anyone to be able to make queries?

Last Podcast On The Left?

This is very clever and I hate you for it.

I have a sneaking suspicion that other players photos are appearing as loading screens as well. Some of them just look a bit more like gameplay than offical.

Not sure if this in confirmed or not, I’ve just been thinking about it for a while.

Can this be a new, more positive spin on the koala copy pasta? Cuz horseshoe crabs really are fucking gnarly

I’m legit looking forward to when Google returns completely garbled and unreadable search results, because someone is running an automated Ads campaign that sources another automated campaign and so on, with the only reason it rises to the top is that they put the highest bid amount.

I doubt Google will do shit about it, but at least the memes will be good!

That’s what got me thinking about this question initially; the home construction. I understand there’s a lot that can be done tree cover, air flow, and decent thermal material, unfortunately it seems that’s often deemed too expensive in places that aren’t consistently warmer.

Honestly, that sounds like the most realistic outcome. If the history of the internet is anything to go by, the bubble will reach critical mass and not so much pop, as slowly deflate when something else begins to grow and take its place of hype.

Summer storms are the best! That feeling of anticipation as the pressure builds up, then the way the temperature drops, before the rain hits and it just washes the heat away (sometimes!)

Oh wow, so someone could literally just post a comment somewhere that says select all or drop tables and it’ll run?

Probably a over simplification, but I guess someone could easily make a script that does that thousands of times.

Colds not too hard to deal with at all. As the other poster mentioned, when outside, the trick is layers.

Inside, it’s actually very easy to trap heat. Knowing where and how it dissipates in a house makes a huge difference, but it’s generally much easier to heat a place than cool it.

One cup a day. That cup happens to be the size of a bathtub.

You’re absolutely right about not going back. Web 3.0 I guess. I want to be optimistic that a distinction between all the garbage and actual useful or real information will be visible to people, but like you said, general tech and media literacy isn’t encouraging, hey?

Slightly related, but I’ve actually noticed a government awareness campaign where I live about identifying digital scams. Be nice if that could be extended to incorrect or misleading AI content too.
