It’s a pokémon joke. In the first games there is a kid who has a very random line about his love for shorts, and since then they’ve put someone like him with a similar quote in a lot of games.

That would certainly explain it.

I guess the story they’re trying to push is “People intentionally use bad AI just to give officially supported, good AI a bad name!”. And that’s quite the ridiculous claim.

I remember a long time ago complaining about a shitty pattern like this (specifically, bombing your history by artificially making a shitload of redirects and thus making the back button useless. Probably the old school way to do this shit). Back then I was told by web devs “this is how the web works, you can’t have a browser detect and block this!”.

Fuck that.

sabotaging their company’s AI by entering proprietary info into public AI chatbots, using unapproved AI tools,

This is counter-productive and can get you in big trouble IMO. I don’t even get what these are protesting.

or intentionally using low-quality AI output in their work without fixing it.

This is better and I think I would totally do this if management forced me to use AI. If they want to pretend using this thing is a better use of my time, I’ll give them what they want.

Fortunately I am working for an administration that has had rather tame expectations for gen AI use till now. They’re basically just like “experiment if you want, be careful and use what works for you”. So I just keep doing what I always did.

Roughly same age group (I think? early Y), and yeah, exactly that.

Searching has become a battle against the terrible AI answers that misinterpret and oversimplify one random result while making it a chore to find actual good sources.

And of course gen AI is also to blame for these good sources being drowned in an ocean of content farms, those shitstain tentacular bastards stealing and garbling information beyond recognition. Walls and walls of text saying absolutely nothing, or complete lies, on every subject known to humanity, feeding on themselves and replacing everything else.

It’s no use. You can always try to hide it, we might have slightly fewer opportunities to use “slopilot” but we can still default to “microslop”.

Not sure exactly what actions they’d be willing to take, but fake experts on “non-political” subjects are definitely used to push political agendas.

For example, climate change deniers.

I was expecting some cool Mario strats

I’m always using “clear” to just get rid of my console’s output. I think it has something to do with me remembering I used that on my old 80’s computer, trying it out on a bash long after that and “oh, that works here too, that’s convenient”.

Reset looks like it does more stuff, but I don’t know if that’s useful for this use case.

They have a third data farm in Pikmin Bloom. Wait, does Pikmin Bloom still exist? I did that for a couple months and lost interest.

My second-hand, old as hell, button-only kindle has never downloaded any book from Amazon since I got it. Only Calibre.

Does it mean pokémon go players also routinely crash into bus stops?

Meh. If I am paid to endure a bunch of openAI corporate bullshit, I don’t think I am going lower than $3,000 for the trouble.

Until they started to generate slopilot labels for them. Because nothing is safe from the slop.

Reasoning is woke propaganda anyway.

It was just not good enough for “We wrote a sci-fi story”.

Well. the plots are NFTs, so it’s just a subset of it really.

Part of the so-called “web3” bullshit, the crypto people’s wet dream of a unified metaverse where every shitty asset is a financial investment and video games are not fun unless they’re grindy AI slop with a promised RoI.

He “fell into the trap of hallucinations”. Yeah, maybe we need to stop pretending people who ask LLM to slop their work for them are victims.

“Look, the robot found an irresistible quote, how could I not use it?!” That’s great journalism for you.

They asked copilot to slop an update for them and it tried to kill itself. Tragic, really.

Zuckerberg not caring about people’s consent is literally the core principle that lead to facebook. He must be such a proud bot daddy.
