"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 band Muse has surrendered its Instagram and X handles to Meta after the release of its new AI agent, Muse.

The English rock band Muse has been renamed on Instagram and X from “Muse” to “museband.”

Despite the band Muse having had its Instagram account since 2012 and its X account since 2008, it has seemingly surrendered the handle to Mark Zuckerberg’s newest AI agent.

Not to defend rich people, but the dude who had X since the beginning of time just had it taken from him. I assume the same thing happened here. They just woke up and were suddenly muse band. Mostly because I dont see Meta or any tech company ever asking for shit nowadays. Just smash and grab.

I mean he did pay $44bn for it 😂

I assume Meta can do that for their Instagram account, but not their X account.

Zuck and Musk are definitely the same kind of loner creeps. They are probably pen pals.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 10 hours ago

Zuck is alot more creepier, since theres less info about him.

They're both complicit, working together

The Epstein class flocks together. Look at news about Meta discussing some new child porn A.I. ads.

Sorry I just realized autistic people would take that literally and not metaphorically like an example.

[–] TachyonTele_Esq@piefed.social 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Are you saying that people that tell jokes are autistic?

[–] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.world 0 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

No I edited the comment. It was basically telling you to look at child porn if you took it literally.

[–] TachyonTele_Esq@piefed.social 1 points 1 hour ago

Are you autistic?

I'm just saying, as much as I like Muse, they might have just taken a bunch of money for this.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 8 points 22 hours ago

But why pay when you dont have to? Maybe their Twitter handle. But Suck ain't paying anybody on his platform for their handle hes just taking it for sure. Not that I believe Muse is respectable. I just dont think the tech oligarchs would pay.

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 10 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

If they post something saying that, I 100% believe it. If not, I'm assuming they sold it.

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago

Ya, given zuck doesnt own X the most probable answer is they cut a big fat cheque. Im sure we'll find out soon enough either way.

Get in bed with psychos to make more money, wake up in bed next to a psycho in the morning. I have little sympathy for those who find themselves in this position.
