"What is the charge? Eating a meal?  A succulent Chinese meal?"

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 1 points 50 minutes ago

Apparently it was some kind of credit card fraud. They didnt have to do him so dirty like that, at least let him finish his succulent meal.

Who would’ve thought a country run by Pooh Bear would be so skilled at using honeypots.

He stuck something were he wasn't supposed to and it sure wasn't his nose.

A bit off topic, but does anyone else hate this fake structure that some articles have? Here it's these "headings" printed bold.

AI produces cookie-cutter bullshit.

That said, at least for the time being, it gets down to brass tacks in the first paragraph or so. I guess they haven't felt the need to keep your eyes on the page longer.

Capitalist enshitifed journalism is the reason they're 'starving' for readers. You can't find a meat-created news article or a fucking recipe without sifting through 10 pages of hyperbole and nostalgia.

Bring back the fucking newspaper article format where every word cost somebody money. Spend the money on paying someone to make sure the news is right and condense it into an article where your primary goal is conveying exactly what's going on with a close fucking second goal of not wasting everyone's time.

Seems super common in reporting as well, I am noting it with basically every NPR news story these days. LLM's love outputting this format as well. Almost the same thing that is happening with most media, people are so unfocused that you have to repeat things 20 different ways for them to remember, and the lack of actual journalism means they need to fill time with the 'big stories'.

[–] ericwdhs@discuss.online 4 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

You mean like Netflix making shows "second-screen" friendly? I doubt lack of focus ever really drove longer articles. It pushes them shorter and more towards bulleted lists and headlines only if anything.

[Insert ad here. Lol.]

Padding out the paragraph count just gives more spots for ads in between or more eyeball time for banner ads, and even if a site isn't explicitly going for that, all the journalists (real or not) and LLMs are just trained to only write that way now.

[–] 404found@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

So much is paywalled now that I haven't read enough articles to even notice that format.

APNews and Al Jazeera

[–] laranis@lemmy.zip 10 points 3 hours ago

So. Fucking. Much.

Result of the investigation: great revenue stream, keep on! Also, nice idea to create plausible deniability through "affair".

Better put that leather jacket on and ride to the sunset my dude

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 54 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

sunglasses

Huang out to dry.

YEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!

Huang's wang burst the AI bubble

[–] lechekaflan@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

Makes me wonder if this gonna change GPU prices because ever since they started pandering to the crypto and AIslop crowd their fucking GPUs became out of reach to all but those with fuck-you money.

[–] begrudgedcarfolk@sh.itjust.works 16 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I hope he didn't have a prenup

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca 11 points 5 hours ago

I wonder separately if he is in the Epstein files. He's not ivy league, he and a bunch of these pricks like microsoft's guy went to the same Indian University or something. And idk if he was big time enough for epstein to bother with when they were running that honeypot.

Still, I wonder though.

[–] njordomir@lemmy.world 122 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

If AI is so great, he could have avoided all this drama by just getting an AI mistress. What's up with that Huang?

[–] MangioneDontMiss@feddit.nl 7 points 3 hours ago

OOOoooOOO, Jensen Huang-san.

He probably thought his shitty jacket was the reason he was getting pussy.
