All "AI" relies on thousands and thousands of low-paid, overworked humans in the Global South staring at screens so snake-oil salesmen in SV and Redmond can claim they're about to revolutionize the world. It's all lies.

Actually most AI relies on high quality data acquired from all sorts of sources including academic research papers, GitHub code repositories, books and journals, newspapers, and technical manuals.

Uh-huh... And yet reddits biggest source of cash recently was selling the comments section for training AI data... Sure. "High Quality"

Only if you recognize most the comments are written by people who are high.

Reddit is run by an idiot. Don't worry about what reddit's doing they're not making money.

What the actual hell is that comment? I'm sorry are you suggesting some kind of evil cabal or something?

Might want to make some more sense

All “AI”

Not even close to true.

If you unhinge your jaw a little further I'm sure you can fit that VC cock further back in your throat.

I think you are confused about what "AI" means. You are referring to a very small subset if AI.

That's got nothing to do with how wide my mouth is open.
