Let’s lock everyone at home give them virtual friends and virtual messages and they will be happy. Literally Meta Strategy, Meta Human - Corporate Bacteria.
AI is super expensive to run, yet these companies do EVERYTHING to make sure we are using it all the time - Microsoft is bundling it on every native app. They also openly admit they’re not able to make it profitable even when considering the people paying expensive subscriptions to use it.
So isn’t this contradiction suspicious? What’s really the reason behind making sure we will use AI even when we didn’t ask for it?
They want to make us used to see AI images and start to think they are cool at exposure.
Doordash is abusing AI similarly by adding product descriptions generated by AI if there isn’t one. It includes things like ingredient lists, cooking styles, and quantitative descriptions that can all be entirely wrong. Gonna be fun when relying on the AI description causes an allergic reaction and serious injury or death.
how is that allowed but I’m not allowed to drive the slow ass accessibility electric shopping carts because they don’t have a seatbelt and that’s apparently a legal issue
I hate the law so much
My wife just hit similar, Google AI result invented a dish that didn’t actually exist for a local restaurant. She was half ready to go until she went to the actual menu and figured out the described food didn’t exist.
It feels like every CEO on earth thinks they need to adopt AI or fall behind, but they have no idea what to use AI for so they’re just ramming it into use cases that no one asked for.
Your not wromg. The investors class want ai because that is what they belive will be the future. If the ceos don’t add then the investors pull out. Even when most feedback is negative, even woth ai companies saying they don’t have a path to profitability
I’m in tech, and yeah, while we actually do have a couple helpful (nothing revolutionary, just smoothes over some of the drudge work) use cases for Gen AI, we identified those use cases pretty quick and leadership’s been grasping for more ever since.
I was sitting in a meeting yesterday that basically was exactly this.
So yes. very much.
This is hardly the first, and definitely not the last corporate fad. We should have just about finished moving everything to the block chain by now.
It’s almost as if CEOs are just regular schmucks that fall prey to BS advertising.
just
regularspoiled and power-mad shmucksFTFY. To call them “regular” belies the fact that suffusion of money and the power over the wellbeing of others has, universally, rotted their humanity from the inside out, making it impossible for them to even imagine — let alone successfully predict — what a “regular” shmuck would consider a reasonable use-case for AI.
Agreed. Overpaid, sociopathic and overly-powerful schmucks. But still schmucks.
Because the places that already had AI before the recent surge just called it something else.
That definitely needs to be a lawsuit against facebook/meta for the damage caused to the brand they’re forcing ai slop onto.
Sounds more like something they accidentally opted into
Never understood why people pay to run. Worst shit ever. Just go outside and run for free.
My brother in Christ, they’re giving running away for free out on the sidewalk.
Was at a whisky&rum fair a couple weeks ago. A bunch of brands had very AI looking designs on the bottles.
And that included Bottles of whisky that cost 200+ bucks.
I mean, who doesn’t associate the name “whisky” with “woman in spacesuit tentacle porn” and “sexy woman santa”?
What the fuck lmfao.
Exactly, except the company is Facebook fucking up the advertisements.

You can tell that AI is a great technology by how much it’s being forced into as many places as possible by the ones trying to sell it.
Not necessarily dead internet theory, but I hate how everything seems to be AI generated nowadays. In the past when you search for something you are likely to find an article or a post about it, now it is just AI generated slop.
If you use an ad blocker, there are filters for ai slop such as https://github.com/laylavish/uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist
I am just surprised people are still on Facebook. I deleted my account more than 10 years ago. Every other meta platform seems more popular like Instagram and Whatsapp.
Look at how they massacred my boy
?
Look at the mountains in the AI slop.
If this is AI it’s pretty good. These are the Flatirons in Boulder, CO.
That one is a real picture. They’re saying to compare it to the AI massacre that dares call itself a mountain in the original post
Facebook and AI…make it make sense.
Now you’ve got Facebook making AI posts and images. And you can click on a post and it’ll give you suggested AI-generated responses. Soon Facebook won’t need us humans at all, it’ll just be AIs interacting with each other.
What’s the business plan for Meta with that strategy? You can’t sell ads to AIs, I assume…How do they plan to make money?
Didn’t zuck say recently that he’s gonna make ai friends for people bc most people want like 15 friends and only have like 2? So I’m assuming he’s just training the ais to make them more human sounding so that he can sell people friendship subscriptions
They’ve been faking their userbase numbers for ages now. They don’t care about actual user engagement.
They don’t care about actual user engagement.
“Tell me how you measure me and I will tell you how I will behave. …"
Yeah they put a AI bot in my FB group whose first post was literally harmful information.
