So what’s the angle? The Internet is getting flooded by AI slop. AI needs fresh REAL content to train with. That’s the angle. You are there to provide frsh amd original content to feed the AI.

Thats a very good point and probably exactly the idea. Dorsey has always just been an actor that says one thing and thinks another.

Omfg this is so awful it’s likely either accidental truth or a damn good prediction
chunes@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Again with this idea of the ever-worsening ai models. It just isn’t happening in reality.
pulsewidth@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The same reality where GPT5’s launch a couple months back was a massive failure with users and showed a lot of regression to less reliable output than GPT4? Or perhaps the reality where most corporations that have used AI found no benefit and have given up reported this year?
LLMs are good tools for some uses, but those uses are quite limited and niche. They are however a square peg being crammed into the round hole of ‘AGI’ by Altman etc while they put their hands out for another $10bil - or, more accurately while they make a trade swap deal with MS or Nvidia or any of the other AI orobouros trade partners that hype up the bubble for self-benefit.
cley_faye@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Not only it is actually happening, it’s actually well researched and mathematically proven.
Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
You may want to use AI’s some time for the sake of science. They are many times worse than a year ago.
EldritchFeminity@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
It has been proven over and over that this is exactly what happens. I don’t know if it’s still the case, but ChatGPT was strictly limited to training data from before a certain date because the amount of AI content after that date had negative effects on the output.
This is very easy to see because an AI is simply regurgitating algorithms created based on its training data. Any biases or flaws in that data become ingrained into the AI, causing it to output more flawed data, which is then used to train more AI, which further exacerbates the issues as they become even more ingrained in those AI who then output even more flawed data, and so on until the outputs are bad enough that nobody wants to use it.
Did you ever hear that story about the researchers who had 2 LLMs talk to each other and they eventually began speaking in a language that nobody else could understand? What really happened was that their conversation started to turn more and more into gibberish until they were just passing random letters and numbers back and forth. That’s exactly what happens when you train AI on the output of AI. The “AI created their own language” thing was just marketing.

People really latched onto the idea, which was shared with the media by people actively working on how to solve the problem

Maybe the angle is just that people hate Ai? Seriously, especially young people…
Apathy@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Is you a youngin? Cause no product under the control of a billionaire is free. If it’s free, you are the product. AI is hated and they’re trying to make a product using that hate as a basis for target audience
MourningDove@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
It would be great if ALL social media platforms banned that garbage.
Perspectivist@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
Or just had a filter to hide it. I don’t feel like banning something from everyone just because I personally don’t like it.
MourningDove@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
I would and I’d have no problem with it at all. If people want AI slop, they can go find it where it is allowed.
nutsack@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
personally, I would ban it at the federal level and anytime you use it someone shows up at your house and destroys it and throws away all your computers
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Hmmmm, must not be American.
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I think such a filter wouldn’t function well enough to keep up, such is the case with search engines which offer the feature, and instead a 0 tolerance ban would be the only effective method.

Another walled garden that will fracture the system even more and give even more credit to the open social web.
Blisterexe@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
It is on nostr, I don’t like the protocol very much but it is decentralised

Is it decentralized like the fediverse or 'decentrslized' like bluesky?

khepri@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Jack Dorsey more than deserves the hate and I’m happy to discuss it with you.
Dayroom7485@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
We like our negativity here - it’s still okay to disagree and be positive though!
That being said, Dorsey was fine selling his last media company to the highest-bidding fascist. Chances are he‘ll do it again.
Personally, I won’t use any social media that isn’t billionaire-proof.
rageagainstmachines@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Valid criticism isn’t baseless hate. And, is better to be skeptical than blindly complacent.

logicbomb@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
In the main picture, about half of those videos use filters that do something based on the location of the person’s head. Unless they’ve changed the definition since I went to college, that would be classified as a type of computer vision, aka AI.
LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Yeah they just mean the more layperson understanding of AI as in AI-generated content or as YouTube Studio dubs it: “synthetic media” (pretty good term imo)
Basically just stuff that was “generated”.
I’m sure transformative use of ML like filters etc. would be fine. Even incorporation of generated elements in otherwise a normal video would be fine.

Wasn’t he all in on AI just a couple months ago? Praising how awesome vibe coding is? Fuck that guy. Just another billionaire peddling lies for profit.

As someone else said, don’t be surprised if this is a ruse to hoover up training data that isn’t AI generated. Guy is a tosser.

To get the perfect selfie please pull your tongue back in your mouth. Good, now close you mouth. Perfect, now lower your phone thirty degree. Great, now lower it thirty degrees more. Almost there! Now lower thirty more degrees and put it the fuck away in your pocket.
Congratulations, you now have the perfect selfie.

chrash0@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
it’s already the case that the distinction between what’s “AI” and what isn’t is a subjective, aesthetic difference and not a technical one
Chronographs@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
Detecting it is difficult but what actually is or isn’t AI should be pretty cut and dry. Either nothing completely generated, or no footage edited using generative ai (depending on how strict you want to be with your ban)
chrash0@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
what about when the neural networks that power the DSP modules in all modern cell phones cameras? does a neural network filter that generates a 3D mesh or rather imposes a 3D projection, eg putting dog ears on yourself or Memojis, count? what if i record a real video and have Gemini edit the white balance? i don’t think it’s as cut and dry as most people think
shalafi@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I like that the 7 second limit forces creativity. We shall see where this goes. Bet uploaded videos just get posted to more popular sites.
DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 weeks ago

shalafi@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Not it you want something impactful. Creativity and editing are tough to pack into 7 seconds.

Go back to sleep, dude has jumped on every consumer trend ever since he left Twitter. AI content is not even a core issue of current social media platforms, despite its overwhelming popularity and loads of posts.

y0kai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Lol the original vine is still my favorite dead platform. The comedy you can produce in 6 seconds is great.
boonhet@sopuli.xyz 2 weeks ago
It forces creativity, and sudden endings to things can be funny. I think it’s a better format than the long-ass “shorts” on YT or TikTok for short-form video content. Make it 6 seconds or make it 30 minutes.

Not if I use AI to hide my use of AI first!
boonhet@sopuli.xyz 2 weeks ago
Well the AI-based AI detector isn’t actively making creative people’s work disappear into a sea of gen-AI “art” at least.
There’s good and bad use cases for AI, I consider this a better use case than generating art. Now the question is whether or not it’s feasible to detect AI this way.

nondescripthandle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Just the threat of being able to summarily remove AI content and hand out account discipline will cut down drastically on AI and practically eliminate the really low effort ‘slop’, it’s not perfect but it’s damn useful.
FaceDeer@fedia.io 2 weeks ago
It's also going to make it really easy to take down the content you don't like, just accuse it of being AI and watch the witch hunting roll in. I've seen plenty of examples of traditional artists getting accused of using AI in other forums, I don't imagine this will be any different.
Capricorn_Geriatric@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The ban doesn’t need a 100% perfect AI screening protocol to be a success.
Just the fact that AI is banned might appeal to a wide demographic. If the ban is actually enforced, even in just 25% of the most blatant cases, it might be just the push a new platform needs to take off.
osaerisxero@kbin.melroy.org 2 weeks ago
Only if we let it be. There's no technical reason why the origin of a video couldn't have a signature generated by the capture device, or legally requiring AI models to do the same for any content they generate. Anything without an origin sticker is assumed to be garbage by default. Obviously there would need to be some way to make captures either anonymous or not at the user's choice, and nation states can evade these things with sufficient effort like they always do, but we could cut a lot of slop out by doing some simple stuff like that.
kinsnik@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
while a phone signing a video to show that it was captured with the camera is possible, it will be easy too to fake the signature. all it would take would be a hacked device to steal the private key. and even if apple/google/samsung have perfectly secure systems to sign the origin of the video, there would be ton of cheaper phones that would likely won’t.
pennomi@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
“Legally” doesn’t mean shit if it’s not enforceable. Besides, removing watermarks is trivial.
There is no technically rigorous way to filter AI content, unfortunately.
edryd@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Just because something might be hard means we should give up before even trying?
Rothe@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
Of course not, but I don’t think anybody suggested that.
