atothei··on Google will 'sort it out' if OpenAI misused YouTube for AI training
Where's the concern for the content creators who didn't expect their content to be used to train this stuff to replace them at content creation (or whatever else)?
atothei··on Meta is discontinuing Workplace to focus on AI and metaverse
considering how poorly Fb and Insta treated users after getting them hooked (every other post seems to be an ad and the whole experience makes it difficult to do what you came for), I'm not sure people are that interested in giving another Meta product a chance or spending time in that universe

good take on the disrespect Instagram shows to users after Meta acquisition: https://omny.fm/shows/better-offline/the-cult-of-failing-upw...

atothei··on Why so dangerous for AI to learn how to lie: 'It will deceive us like the rich'
We haven't had technology that lied to us before. This isn't technology--they are growing another species.

Really important for there to be regulation and pushback on unsafe AI development. Shame the VCs and individuals who fund it.

atothei··on ChatGPT-4o – OpenAI's ickiest product yet
the content of the release and the voice seem to betray that this "breakthrough" is now becoming about manipulating users (such as with a flirty voice) and gaining even more data and potential for surveilling and studying us later (why does the assistant need to be capturing video?).

Who really wants a video assistant? aren't video calls just exhausting anyway? does anyone really do video chats with existing human assistants aside from when truly necessary?

OpenAI keeps saying this is all for our good and then making choices that show disdain for us and what we might want out of this
