I just want one megacorp to go down in flames in a way that makes it extremely obvious the entire downfall was due to some dipshit saying “let’s use ai!”

Just one example. One cautionary tale that’ll make CEOs think twice.

This has already publicly happened multiple times and the result was that nobody in a position to gain from this knowledge cared so it will keep happening with bigger and bigger consequences met with greater and greater apathy

Hey on a completely unrelated note is cryptocurrency gone yet?

I mean pre-existing megacorp, let’s say Amazon. I don’t mean “corporation that sprung up exclusively for a cryptoscam”

Like a corporation that makes a bajillion dollars a day just out of nowhere vanishing because some dipshit says “let’s have chatgpt run customer service. What could go wrong??”

The worst part is, it can't just be new content to them, it must be made recently. Something from 2021? Sorry too old.

I hate that attitude so loving much. We live in an age where you can easily get more high quality movie music and books than you could ever consume in your entire lifetime. There’s absolutely no reason for anyone to limit themselves to anything recent or demand a robot shart out something made by rolling a bunch of D-20s. I just don’t understand it.

How valuable is AI generated porn anyways? I mean, the more you make the more worthless it is and people can just make it themselves with a mediocre compuiter.

Thus the thing that will hopefully kill AI, once CEOs realize it isn’t the free money printing machine after everyone says “wait why pay for your ai poo poo when I can just make my own ai poo poo with a prompt?”

I think my favorite part of AI is people saying it’s useful because you can have it give you a bunch of information on some subject, and that as long as you know to remove the incorrect information you have a good resource


Forgetting that if I’m using generative AI to research a subject for me, how the gently caress would I know enough about the subject to know when the AI is wrong?

Maybe it's different in the US where you can actually hire and fire people without rhyme or reason whenever you like.

Depends on the state but yeah it’s entirely possible to just fire people and replace them with “prompt artists.” And CEOs and the like are both greedy enough and stupid enough and short sighted enough to see “it costs less? Do it!” without thinking ahead to how it’ll harm them later

It’s always about THIS quarter, not the NEXT quarter where you just hope it’s someone else’s problem anyway

There is still a lot wrong with this image but most of the faces and hands are passable at a glance. Do not look at the hand coming from the middle of the head the lady in focus.


I mean you say that but the other image isn’t as instantly recognizable as AI at a glance. This one INSTANTLY screamed “this is ai” to me scrolling by before seeing what you wrote, while the other I at least had to stop on and look for a second

One of my “favorite” uses of AI in recent years might be translation. “Hello human translator. We have replaced your job with a robot. However we want you around to correct the robot because we know it doesn’t do a good enough job. We are making you a proofreader. You get paid less but hey, it’s a lot less work, right?”


*translator just throws out the garbage the robot shits out and translates it like normal because it’s far easier that way. Gets paid less for the same work*

This sounds so lovely. I can't imagine how it feels to have something you've devoted your life to devalued by idiots like this, as a different set of idiots try relentlessly to devalue it as a field in a literal, financial sense at the same time. Is she having to screenshot progress on everything she does or something? What can you do if someone throws out a random j'accuse?

Unfortunately AI art can also poo poo out fake “progress” images to try and trick people.

I guess all you can really do is make sure your image includes things like text and hands to completely eliminate all AI accusations
