If you’re concerned about the Ars Technica scandal where it appears they’re using #AIslop in at least one article to make up quotes on a developer blog… you might also want to know their parent company sold their soul to OpenAI in 2024

Amazon plunges 9%, continues Big Tech's $1 trillion wipeout as AI bubble fears ignite sell-off

Fears over AI spending have sparked a sell-off among tech stocks.

^{Kai Nicol-Schwarz (CNBC)}

There is no such thing as ethical AI. There's no right way to do the wrong thing, don't compromise on the pollution of the information sphere and denigration of art and culture and proliferation of consciousness-impersonating political agents

@MistralAI

AI slop hurts your soul.

It makes you: distrustful, dismissive of creative works, uncreative, derivative, imaginatively stunted, unreflective, dependant, it robs you of the satisfaction and growth granted by the creative process and it poisons you with all the same cultural biases taken from the training data.

AI robs people of imagination and the drive to create and instead produces output that is pastiche on steroid, uninspired unchallenging slop, every little detail crafted without personality or opinion with nothing to say except "this might vaguely remind you of something good that already existed"

I am also particularly concerned about the rise of chatbots pretending to be humans for political purposes.

FTA: "As Canada contemplates our response to the collapse of the American empire and its alliances with the world, the cornerstone of our current strategy is sacrificing our dollars, water and energy in order to become more dependent on America, in a weird and improbable bet that we will figure out how to make millions of Canadians unemployed. I'm sorry, that just doesn't sound like a great idea to me."

ArXiv "now requires first-time posters to be endorsed by an established arXiv author in their own field. People who have previously posted in the same disciplinary section of arXiv do not need an endorsement. The move is an attempt to clamp down on a rising tide of fraudulent submissions, says University of Amsterdam astronomer Ralph Wijers, chair of the arXiv editorial council. A large fraction, he says, are generated with artificial intelligence (AI)."

Friends, there’s a post making the rounds with this AI generated image. Don’t fall for it.

I’m pointing it out because it’s going viral here. The person sharing it seems to enjoy all the criticism and attention they get from it going viral.

This is how it works on the big platforms: get people pissed. Make them give you clicks and higher ranking.

Don’t fall for it. It’s not how we want it to work here, is it. Block, and move on.
