So, best I can tell the content on this site is AI generated, and I can uprank/downrank posts by using a token that I gain by listening to AI generated music?

I'm getting weird uncanny valley vibes lol.

View on HN

If you look closely at the profile photo that the post is "Posted by", the distorted background makes it clear that it's a deepfake

Oh, I came to that conclusion after I had checked the image URIs which shows they are all in a subdirectory titled aipeople LOL

Also if you read the about pages on the site, it says the post authors are digital people that were bred (...i.e. two digital people mated) on its sister site Celody. You use Celody to earn tokens (by listening to generative music) that you can spend on mating digital people and drafting laws.

Wat.

It is AI generated, but not a "deepfake" → a deepfake intends on using AI to impersonate a particular person.

I think there should be a term for the phenomenon when a term becomes popular and loses it's meaning from all the new people using it wrong.

Like how everything is a zero day now.

Bildungsmemen?

Leave German out of this!

I think we should co-opt an existing word and use it wrongly so it loses it's meaning and becomes the word for the phenomenon you described.

Would "phenomenon" do?!

pretty sure i matched with a dude on bumble business who was not who he said it was, his job title had AI researcher in there. sometimes his text would be grammatically correct, other times it would be txt spk

Read all the 'about' pages on Stakedy and Celody. My takeaway is I think this guy is trying to create The Matrix on a blockchain and upload his brain there.

I'm glad you said this because I was really concerned when the article sounded legit but I couldn't make heads or tails of it.

It's interesting but the site design is very poor. It looks fake like pretty much every other content regurgitating site out there

lol if so that is awesome

Yeah I'm legitimately impressed.

It seems like passing an important AI test, like hacker news Turing test.

This is apparently HNs first rodeo.
