Nobody is doing either - the only thing anyone or any group is using tools and resources for at scale is to improve their own position, other people's lives do not enter into the equation. Which is still a problem, of course. Externalising cost is a winning evolutionary strategy we can't shake.

I love how, no matter what technology we have available, the greatest trick is still what our brain does, connecting all the shots into a narrative of what just happened. Good stuff, thanks for sharing.

It shouldn't surprise you. What is the business model? Other than selling your information to allow organisations to target you with ads and propaganda and maximising your engagement to increase that revenue, how is a platform like Facebook supposed to turn a profit? Would you pay to be on it?

Now, now, let's not get overly ambitious here. 🚲

Our preferences set us apart, by remembering the preferences of the deceased we remember what about them we will miss and what we may have had in common. We connect on preferences before deeper connections.

Why aim so low? I bet you could be a rocket scientist if you launched a satellite into low earth orbit and knew a bunch more math.

The disrespect to this guy's family and friends in constantly dragging his corpse and remembrance around. Seems about right.

People call it creepy, dystopian, etc. But the key thing is that it's not grandma. Life ends, and if we could stop or reverse that, we'd have to think really hard if we should. But this is something else altogether - a poor proxy.

Has to be a joke, if your name is Iwona Horyn and your parents were dumb or cruel enough to pick a middle name starting with a B. You either leave it out or you spell out the middle name.

A redditor would say "does Rose have an OF?"

Niks verkoopt als zo goed als lekker racistisch en nationalistisch elkaar naar de mond praten. Want Europese landen/merken maken geen troep en Chinese kwaliteitsmerken als DJI, Haier en Seagull bestaan niet.

I feel Bernie was your man for yonks, but he's getting a bit long in the tooth now. Anyway, something like that, probably a little feistier still.

That is to say - you're not wrong, but you may have too optimistic an outlook on the state of existence for many people today. AI is doing well because it doesn't make things noticeably (to them) worse for them, even though it would obviously do so for you.

The answer seems obvious - because someone is willing to buy that art, or you need art with a low enough quality that not having to pay a person for it is more economical. The diet and sex life of some people makes me think those examples are not as shockingly crazy as you intend them to be.
