"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.
A viral Reddit confessional about a "major food delivery app" posted January 2nd is most likely AI-generated. The original post by user Trowaway_whistleblow alleged that an unnamed food delivery company regularly delays customer orders, calls couriers "human assets," and exploits their "desperation" for cash, among other indefensible actions. Nearly 90,000 upvotes and four days later, it's become increasingly clear that the post's text is probably AI-generated.
I'm willing to believe that's possible, but what are your sources for this? I don't see any link to any research data.
There's an article in the verge where they ran the post through ai detectors and asked gemini if the images were true, and i'm not kidding.
Edit: it seems they changed the article, but it was archived by the wayback machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20260105190245/https://www.theverge.com/news/855328/viral-reddit-delivery-app-ai-scam
Tbh even if it was generated by AI I still believe all those things and uber and other big apps are definitely exploiting their drivers the most they can and rigged the system they created. It’s not unlikely the individual isn’t that great at writing and used a bot to help them put their experiences into readable writing for a mass audience.
Yeah, just because it's slop that doesn't always mean it's not true.
I was down voted for saying this post was maybe fake. It seems people only want to read something that fits within the bound of their beliefs, wether it's true or not. That being said, are IA detector really reliable? Also, maybe you can use IA to rewrite your initial draft?
