Its almost like its predictable outcome of prediction algorithms being used to generate content

Time to start working on the Blackwall

The incumbents have their training data that can also be used for the next generations of AI. This is just them helping others to pull up the ladder to avoid more competitors.

I feel so bad for Gen Z. Their future looks so bleak.

Not because of this, mostly climate collapse, but yeah

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 24 points 3 days ago (1 children)

To be fair, this is also part of the problem. AI is making climate change faster, even leaving aside the social ramifications of living in a post-truth world.

[–] resting_parrot@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 days ago (2 children)

But that doesn't count the climate solutions AI will come up with!

It's all caused by the one and same cancer: capitalism.

This is a superbly placed gif.

Ah, so the technological singularity is here but it's in the opposite direction from what was expected as the technology takes over its own enshitification in an ever-accelerating manner.

I gotta wonder where do we go from here?

AI articles cost <$0.01. Human writers cost $10-$100.

Buying a (human) slave for $100 sounds way more profitable than renting an AI if you ask me.

How could they have ever known about the possibility of the thing that literally everyone everywhere told them almost immediately a couple of years ago when this fad really started charting (or perhaps sharting is more appropriate)?

[–] pugsnroses77@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

the percentage chart gives a timeline but not much else. makes it look like humans are writing less, I wonder what those numbers actually look like, if people are actually writing less or not

[–] green_copper@kbin.earth 14 points 3 days ago

Yea. The Y-axis should be in absolute numbers to make a better comparison.

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 days ago

Mirrors face, fingers point.

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It is exactly a mirror, since all the percentages add up to 1 at any time

If training on AI-generated text results in "model collapse" when AI models do it, I wonder what happens when humans do it.
