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.

A chatbot companion startup called Joi AI, which offers a NSFW character AI chat service, is hiring ten “mast**bation consultants,” according to a job listing the company posted on social media.

Best of all, chosen candidates will be paid $2,000 a month — not bad for cranking the hog to audio erotica.

These consultants are being asked to spend four weeks writing about their intimate experience while testing the company’s audio feature. Anyone can apply.

Unsurprisingly, Joi AI was quickly drowning in applications, with the company’s head of brand, Julie Levin, telling BI that the company had received over 100,000 applications in a matter of days.

I think the preferred term for that is "gooning" nowadays.

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

I do not prefer this term. I do not.

[–] hark@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Even if they have at it for only a few minutes? That's stolen valor.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

[–] darthsundhaft@piefed.social 11 points 1 day ago

They'll pay people to goon over AI but we still can't legalize sex workers. What. The. Fuck.

Joi AI

JOI for Jerk Off Instructions, a popular genre for video and audio.

This joke also made it into Blade Runner 2049; the AI hologram in love with Ryan Gosling, played by Ana de Armas, is named Joi.

I knew some dudes were dumb, but I didn't know they needed instructions for that. I guess it really does take all kinds of veggies to make chicken soup, what a world.

[–] DokPsy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's less needing instruction and more a humiliation or submissive kink, from what I've seen. Not my thing but whatever floats their goat

[–] spectrums_coherence@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I am sorry but do goat actually float?

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Only under certain conditions, and they vary from goat to goat. You'll need to check with your goat to see what makes it float.

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

If they're made of wood.

Burn the witch!

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

With enough balloons tied to them, anyone can float.

[off topic]

Back in the day, girlie magazine 'High Society' single-handedly created the phone porn industry.

The editorial staff was looking for a way to raise interest. Someone suggested that the publisher, X-star Gloria Leonard, record a phone message about the next issue.

The number got approximately 20 billion calls in the first 90 minutes.

The rest is history...

"According to the model, you set the mood with vintage polka music and then start leafing through a paint catalog."

Holy shit, slow down, I can only get so hard.

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

I don't think most people mind the masturbation but I'm not writing essays about it afterward. The pay is too low.
