Fuck AI

"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.

When i don't sign in, every video is a trump video

Yup.

I made a video earlier this year about how you can (over time) train the algorithm to give you less of this crap. Unfortunately there's just no concrete setting for turning off recommendations that contain AI slop, but you can tell the system to give you less with a little engagement.

I'm convinced this is a psyop to make boomers and older genx question their own memory. this opens the door for further washing and manipulation.

Thank goodness my YouTube bookmark is in on my Watch later or subscription to avoid these clickbait videos.

This is just YouTube default algorithm now. Ai slop videos that are so obviously fake and often all they are is just a slideshow of ai images along with a text to speech narrator reading AI text

Reminds me of this old classic site:

https://pointerpointer.com/

From a time of peak internet content

omg I'm laughing like a little kid. this is hilarious

[–] renegadespork@lemmy.jelliefrontier.net 24 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Omg I remember finding that on Stumbleupon! I’m glad it’s still up. So many classic sites are gone now.

Stumbleupon was best Internet

[–] rainwall@piefed.social 5 points 3 hours ago

They got a pretty good shot now.

i read someone that ai will generally compose images of humans using the same 8 or 9 poses and camera positions

ai must have gathered that the pointing thing must be a key frame human activity

[–] suxen_tsihcrana@anarchist.nexus 6 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

the bots would focus on the finger, and not what it's pointing at. It's slightly amusing and very on brand

I was just watching this and it seems related to your situation:

Why Are Americans So Bloody Stupid? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9MubNsh3rs

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 4 points 8 hours ago

Yeah, why are Americans this dumb?

[–] pomegranatefern@sh.itjust.works 18 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Out of curiosity, did the original video have a finger-pointing still like this?

[–] s@piefed.world 13 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

No, it was a song by a band from the 1960s (which could explain the Bob Dylan suggested videos)

[–] pomegranatefern@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Ah, so it's not an "algorithm finding similar poses in videos" thing, it's just AI deciding that's a Human Pose? 😬

[–] s@piefed.world 22 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Or the AI content farms deciding that it’s a high-engagement thumbnail style to use

[–] foodandart@lemmy.zip 5 points 9 hours ago

Yup. That and the HFY videos that the algorithm will barf out at you. Ugh. I usually go down the side list and "don't recommend channel" to all of them when they show up. Absolute trash..

[–] doc@fedia.io 6 points 9 hours ago

Got the same. Was looking up videos to repair a window balance. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

[–] tuckerm@feddit.online 5 points 9 hours ago

I just saw the first one (Rodney Dangerfield, top left) and the last one (Johnny Carson, bottom right) when I was watching a video just now. I usually watch videos on Youtube in a private browser tab by manually searching for the person's channel or video that I want to watch. The recommended videos are always absolute garbage.

[–] notsosure@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

On a different note; the resemblance between Jeff Bezos and Rodney Dangerfield is striking! Are they father and son?! Both with these hellsapoppin’ high bloodpressure eyes and their hair combed back.
