Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The only thing that I occasionally hit Spotify for is the user generated playlists. Like that’s it. I then copy them over to other platforms. So it sounds like they aren’t making playlist improvements and are just throwing out random ideas for the joy of AI. I assume I can ask any other AI platform about the origins of a band or song so not sure what the differentiator there is. I’m sure they would love to sell access to AI music just like they were able to pay a lot less for podcast materials and want folk to pay for that as well. Anything to not pay musicians I guess.

Give ListenBrainz a try. You can use their app to scrobble your listens, or some apps support scrobbling natively. Then they make you playlists weekly based on what you've been listening too.

best part about them is that they are mostly open source and provide an ethical alternative to the curation algos.

Scrobble, verb; To publish one's media consumption habits to the Internet via software, in order to track when and how often certain items are played.

(Etymology: From the name of the Internet service 'Audioscrobbler', probably a nonce coinage perhaps based on scribble.)

I understand the word being odd but I'm not sure why you chose to go with a definition that associates it with pedophiles???

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Nonce, noun; Occurring, used, or made only once or for a special occasion.

What does the word nonce have to do with Pedophiles?
I really don't know, the only context I have ever heard nonce in is OpenID Connect (here)

[–] Sidyctism2@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 week ago

Ive only ever heard nonce as another word for pedo. I think its british slang

I can tell that you're joking because nobody who would sign up an account @infosec.pub could seriously pretend that they had never heard the term before.
