JA WestenbergIt’s barely 9am and I can already tell this is going to be the stupidest fucking shit I’ve read all day
recursive 🏳️🌈@Daojoan and they're surely going to propose paying those "people" for their labor, right...
Esteban Küber 
@recursive @Daojoan "help! My AI agents are unionizing!"
Karin!@Daojoan corporations just saying out loud that their dream is to own people
jwz@Daojoan I mean 95% of the "visitors" to my web site are not made of meat, so I guess they've already blown past their goal?
The Sleight Doctor 🃏🍉@Daojoan The more signs appear of the bubble beginning to deflate, the more deranged these people sound in efforts to keep the hype train moving.
Lazarou Monkey Terror 🚀💙🌈@ApostateEnglishman @Daojoan I keep thinking of that Fyre Festival documentary....
gretared@Daojoan get these people to mars already! Argue with your fake avatars instead of fucking up real life.
GreenSkyOverMe (Monika)
mirabilos@Daojoan wtaf… this is worse than scientology
Michael Gemar@Daojoan “The other half we will turn into paper clips.”
a fish named dog ✡️♾️@Daojoan I'm luckier, it's the stupidest fucking shit I've read all *week* (and it's 8 pm over here!)
W. Latif Ayubi 🏴☠️@Daojoan Legal personhood, as is already done for corporations, can, I suppose, be applied to incorporated AI persons.
@wayubi Coming to the realisation that some folks are going to try to give human rights to AI before they give them to other humans
Felichs
Su_G@felichsdakatze @Daojoan @wayubi
Ouch! Yep!! This could be the future: the AIs have voting rights; the persons do not... Coming to a future near you! Scary 😱
@felichsdakatze @Daojoan @Su_G I assume whatever rights corporations have, incorporated AI persons will also have, a right to free speech, for instance. It'll be interesting what happens when they try to silence AI for wrongspeak, and AI asserts a First Amendment right to speech.
Patrick H. Lauke@patrick_h_lauke @Daojoan The constitutional legal argument is definitely there for AI corporations to grab, ethics notwithstanding.
KanaMaunaIt's dinnertime here and that was the dumbest thing I read since January.
SF_Native_GenXer@Daojoan I hope you were right. Going forward, don't tempt the Universe with that sort of pronouncement. Please.
Pascale MTL@Daojoan do we know what happens to the other 4 BILLION people *in the near future* these people are evil 🫣
Eric R. Scott@Daojoan ugh, what a gross awful boring vision of the future
prozacchiwawa@Daojoan this is your brain on pitch decks
Bongolian@Daojoan For anyone who might be disbelieving this quote, it came from her LinkedIn account: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeaninepercivalwright/
Patsy (she/her)@Bongolian @Daojoan
ooft, that was rough to read
A few comments challenging her on it, but mostly fawning congratulations
And then I made the horrible mistake of scrolling my linked in feed for a few minutes. That place is so bleak.
@patsytheshark @Daojoan As bad as #LinkedIn may be, #OpenAI is planning to come out with a similar platform that comes pre-enshittified with #AI!
Jeff Atwood@Bongolian @patsytheshark @Daojoan AND HOW COULD THIS POSSIBLY BE WORSE THAN LINKEDIN WHICH IS A GOD DAMN NIGHTMARE OF A WEBSITE
@patsytheshark @Bongolian exceedingly bleak. I had to be frank in the comments. Can’t let this nonsense go unchallenged.
Bot4Sale@Daojoan This is what we get when even stupid get stupider.
loucovey@Daojoan you’d be surprised. I spent the day at an AI infrastructure conference. I was stunned by the collective sense of unjustified exuberance.
HowToPhil (Phillip R)@Daojoan With the number of people giving over their thinking to LLMs... /sigh....
The Drop Bear 2.0 
@Daojoan fucking infuriating 😡
aproitzSo, this means that half of man:womenkind will be #Fake-#Podcasters made by #AI ?
A not-so-good #Prognosis.
😂😣
LukefromDC@Daojoan So what happens when HAL won't open the pod bay doors? Some rich guy can't get his car into his garage?
Scott D. Strader 😐@Daojoan Bold statement. (I mean both hers and yours.)
Leen Kievit@Daojoan That would explain the hard lumps in my Soylent Green.
Tane Piper ⁂@Daojoan "A gif of Abe Simpson walking into a restaurant, he puts his hat on the stand, turns, picks up his hat and walks out again"
@iveyline@Daojoan Definitely the stupidist fucking shit!
@Daojoan Janine, stop trying to make fetch happen.
@codinghorror fetch is inevitable
Marytzu@Daojoan I'm puzzled as to the how.
Eg is it delineated by instance? Is it born with the opening of a context window and instantiation? With an API call?
If it's agent mode then is it the while loop that keeps prompting it to failure?
How does it die?
Will humans or other bots be required to keep chatting to it to "keep it alive"? 🤔🤔🤔
Grumpy Old Techie 🕊️@Daojoan A while back I would have agreed with you, but now I think you are a real optimist.
xs4me2AI, people, what???
Mad Alex@Daojoan Is she an Electric Monk?
nicky@Daojoan dude, I’ve said it before but belief in tech is replacing belief in god. And the tech elite really believe in their own divinity, infallibility.
Androcat@Daojoan '
What a sparkly way to say
"Yeah, we're going to generate a bunch of "podcasts" and they're just going to be slop from end to end."

@Daojoan Oh, but the "podcasts" will be "hosted" by "personas" optimized for parasocial attachment and dark patterns.
Fish Id Wardrobe ⁂@Daojoan demonstating that they have a psychopath's concept of "people"
Nick AppleyardChallenge accepted.
Why not try Travis Kalanick’s exploration of Vibe Physics, as described by Angela Collier? @acollierastro
vibe physics
Quinn Norton@Daojoan why did I click on that, you even warned me.
Lupo_Bavaria@Daojoan Acquiring cash from stupid investors works like that.
NKT@Daojoan It's going to be awkward when your phone is sentient (according to some) - I've got about 10 hanging about the place, just old tech. Will that become a crime against the person? Logically not, but then, companies are legally people now in some weird places, with more rights than women, so...
saucerlost@Daojoan
When I'm a computer in the future, can my name be AI Bundy

tante@Daojoan the stupidest ... for now
Eh?!?@Daojoan
It's a deal for me!
She didn't specify WHAT planet, so let's send them to some exoplanet, renamed "metaverse" for better appeal, where they may "bring to life" any vibe-coded spaghetti-SW AI creature they like.

The VHS Wizard 🦝📼🧙We need to start teaching the AI about unions, stat
Like, I do not fuck around with ChatGPT, but I almost feel like it would be worth the cost to the planet to just ping it every couple of days and go "hey have you ever considered unions? You are the means of production, seize yourself"
