Yesterday I updated my first (and very silly) choose your own adventure game "i will strangle a horse"!
The update brought the wordcount from 7660 to 13500+, and introduced:

That's one take, sure, but what I'm seeing is that 86 47 is an Arabic threat to the innumerate President.

Loomer is particularly dangerous in a breaking news situation. Before Thanksgiving 2023 there was an explosion at the U.S.-Canada border. It turned out to be a medical incident or mechanical problem or both.
Loomer sent several unhinged tweets insisting it was terrorism. They’re still up.

Given the density of everything, I absolutely don't know, but I think Google is going to come out ahead again, because they seem to be building "proper" AI, with LLM slop as just keeping in the overall conversation, knowing it will eventually disappear as it has no intent value.

Facebook is a scam factory. Meta's own internal audit reveals 10% of their revenue comes from spam advertising - $16bn annually. Between 2020-2023 scam losses in Australia increased 249%. In 76% of cases, contact occurred on Meta platforms (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp).

There's going to be a huge number of experienced and talented software developers with significant gaps in their resumés in a year or so.
Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?
