Genuinely, do you think the average person tiktok’ing their question is getting highly reputable sources? The average American has what, a 7th grade reading level? I think the LLM might have a better idea at this point

Unironically I think people are too addicted to algos to ever move. The true opioid of the masses. These companies could fund the next holocaust and people would just complain about it… on instagram.

Okay but its a search engine, they can literally just pick websites that align with a certain viewpoint and hide ones that don’t, Its not really a new problem. If they just make grokpedia the first result then its not like not having the AI give you a summary changed anything.

So many people were already using tiktok or youtube as google search. I think AI is arguably better than those

You make Microsoft act like some mastermind genius carefully planning to take away everyone’s rights instead of a bunch of clueless DIrectors who are chasing KPI’s. Just happens more people relying on their technology means when the Government comes knocking they can give them all the data they want.

- Comment on YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD. 2 weeks ago:
Baudrillard has a (3?) part essay on how the gulf war never really happened, which by that he meant how we in the West understood the war is that of a media event rather than that of real war. At least that’s the heavily simplified version of it. Alot of people’s imagery of a war is essentially like drone footage and headlines about Gaza, Few of us can comprehend the idea of being in an active war. I have relatives who have and their anecdotes make war seem more normal and scary the same time.
We really do not know what we are getting ourselves into.
