Google search engine is much worse than it used to be and seems to be getting worse.

udm=14 doesn’t seem to improve Google search results by a significant margin.

Bing and DuckDuckGo seem to perform better than Google at present.

Google itself is failing. I’m not going to speculate why.

uBlacklist is my current extension for removing spam results.

This is like Satan saying “We’re not going to be able to deal with mass corruption. Just burn everything. That’s the solution.”

That’s an interesting idea… Satan…

Depends on the context. Are you copying someone else’s identity in order to make a passable clone? Are you trying to sell that clone?

A duplication of someone’s voice, commercialized by an unauthorized source, is definitely a form of stealing.

Copying information illegally, such as private information held on a private device, is overwhelmingly illegal.

In general, copying information is only as legal as the purpose behind it.

No, they can make money without stealing. They just choose to steal and lie about it either way. It’s the worst kind of justification.

The investors are predominantly made up of the Rationalist Society. It doesn’t matter whether or not AI “makes money”. It matters that the development is steered as quickly as possible towards an end product of producing as much propaganda as possible.

The bottom line barely even matters in the bigger picture. If you’re paying someone to make propaganda, and the best way to do that is to steal from the masses, then they’ll do it regardless of whether or not the business model is “profitable” or not.

The lines drawn for AI are drawn by people who want to use it for misinformation and control. The justifications make it seem like the lines were drawn around a monetary system. No, that’s wrong.

Who cares about profitability when people are paying you under the table to run a mass crime ring.

Linux is the future.

Failing company? Invest into a propaganda program. People will definitely see the value in these shit brands going forward.

It’s really hard for some people to believe that this would ever be the truth. At the very minimum, this is like 50% of the truth, and the other 50% is worse.

Calling it “stealing comments” is an interesting way of rewording for what is obviously bot spam.

Well said.

They’ll just murder a bunch of people and then be turned off after having been shown to be ineffective too dangerous.

It’s not like AI is reliable at this point. Way too many people are actively ignoring experts pointing this fact out and instead obsessing over Skynet or w/e made up sci-fi BS.

Rather than be used for war, they’ll be used for threats of violence and propaganda. It’s not a new problem. It’s just a new version of that same problem.
