I hope so, but frankly we'll just have to see. The people with the money and power usually win.

There are a lot of jokes to be made about Twitter referencing the disasterpiece movie "Foodfight!" and its villains fighting for "Brand X".

God I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I thought everyone likes embarrassment humor and maybe I was getting a little cynical about "how bad taste is getting" or something. So good to know that others call it "cringe" (in one way, not in the other) and can't watch it either.

I just subscribed to Lifehacker a few days ago, and now I've unsubscribed. The articles are nothing but tech product-shilling, non-stop. Mostly Samsung and Apple. (lemmy.world)
 

Didn't this stupid website used to help you, you know, hack life or something?

It's getting old telling people this, but... the AI that we have right now? Isn't even really AI. It's certainly not anything like in the movies. It's just pattern-recognition algorithms. It doesn't know or understand anything and it has no context. It can't tell the difference between a truth and a lie, and it doesn't know what a finger is. It just paints amalgamations of things it's already seen, or throws together things that seem common to it— with no filter nor sense of "that can't be correct".

I'm not saying there's nothing to be afraid of concerning today's "AI", but it's not comparable to movie/book AI.

Edit: The replies annoy me. It's just the same thing all over again— everything I said seems to have went right over most peoples' heads. If you don't know what today's "AI" is, then please stop assuming about what it is. Your imagination is way more interesting than what we actually have right now. This is why we should have never called what we have now "AI" in the first place— same reason we should never have called things "black holes". You take a misnomer and your imagination goes wild, and none of it is factual.
