Leak confirms OpenAI is preparing ads on ChatGPT for public roll out as it has around 1 billion users with all sorts of personal data.
So, after stealing data from all books, artists, source repos, Wikipedia, Forum posts, & everything else created voluntarily by humans, it is now being sold back to the highest bidder with all your personal data Remember, they are also asking for government IDs & burning all plants resources they come with Ads. such a big idea!
This has been the case for as long as media exists. One reason why hitler had a radio installed in every household was because it was the perfect method to manipulate people.
Libs are now making a shocked pikachu face because they think its STARTING while it is only getting worse.
The moment you give someone else control what you hear or see, you're done. The changes are small but they accumulate.
Media control is fascist. And fascism is the militarized arm of capital.
@haui @Zergy @nixCraft Media control is totalitarian in general. Stalin's USSR built out a national public address system. It was not even radio in the normal sense, just a pair of wires with an audio signal. Every residence had an outlet for a speaker. There was only one channel. This had the advantage of working when the electricity was out.
Having media that is just a business and can be bought by the highest bidder, looks very strange to people from other cultures.
@johntimaeus @haui @Zergy @nixCraft Yes I've seen an article about it. It used vacuum tube amplifiers and transformers to step up the audio signal to a fairly high voltage, send it long distances over wires, and then step it down for delivery to houses. There was a transformer in the receiver to match the speaker impedance. So pretty much like a power grid.
A clever techie could have backfed the wires and overridden the signal in a local area. Probably a bad idea in Stalin-land however. 1/3
