"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.
Even the Fediverse sadly isn't entirely safe from AI bots as they've been messing with Lemmy for a while now.

Did they miss the Russian troll farm memo 15 years ago?
dang I wish someone could invent a decentralized social media platform where engagement isn't rewarded over everything else and if one instance becomes infested with bots the others could defederate from it and it has 10x the moderator-to-user ratio of existing social media dang
I'm not sure but I think you are talking about PornHub.

AI agents to reshape public opinion in a way that threatens to undermine democracy
I‘ve never understood the weird total helplessness of pro-democracy people here, can’t we, and in particular politicians simply flood the zone with pro-democracy contents too? AI, bots and outsourcing are cheap and available to everyone..
One of the core reasons neoliberalism inevitability leads to fascism and collapse is as an ideology it is entirely negative about the possibility of systematic forces of evil having any kind of systematic solution. All we can do is try to individually be better individuals ourselves and do our part.
In neoliberalism we are the noun and corporations, the ruling class, money, endless growth and unfettered greed are the verbs that change us. If we begin to organize and behave like a verb, neoliberalism acts with existential hostility and labels this "unnatural" in some way.
Kick him out.
