I was looking for information on insect vision for a report I'm writing and came across an internet article. The first thing I noticed is that there was a picture under the header that the article called a mantis, but the anatomy was all wrong. It was covered in ocelli, for one.
Then I started reading, and as someone that has used chat GPT before... Yeah it was clearly written by an algorithm...
This is the site. https://healingpicks.com/
Look at the pics closely and you'll see they're messed up.
How long until the whole internet is just this shit? This is why there needs to be rules and shit about this, I don't care if it stifles the 'entrepreneurial spirit' of AI or whatever. The droves of lazy copy and paste style news and 'top ten' sites were already bad enough, but this shit is bringing the internet to a new low in quality.
I can't wait until this shit is banned by China or something.
Kojima's prophecy from MGS2 was that AI would create a version of the internet where all the trivial stuff is filtered out from the “truth” so human society doesn’t regress in the then-new social media era.
...instead, we got a nightmare inversion where AI turbocharges the creation of trivial and outright hallucinatory content that slowly overwhelms and annihilates all sentience on the internet.
Maybe we'll be finally be forced outside
Only to find there is nowhere left outside to go
That feel when smuglords say "touch grass" but all the grass in your local area has police-enforced loitering laws or fee/purchase-based access.
The difference is in Kojima's art, that "AI" is actual AI and not overly bloated statistical models trained on their own bullshit.
Like you say, we're so much more doomed.
Like so many dystopian outcomes, ours is the less fun and more embarrassing version.
Yeah. When I say I want to live in a cyberpunk dystopia, I don't mean that I want to live in some hellscape. The hellscape part is a given at this point. I just want cool body mods and for trench coats to be cool again
god MGS2 was amazing
I wish more video games that are works of art like MGS 2 would be made...
I think current internet is the beginning of the problem kojima envisioned needing a solution. I could see search engines requiring sites be "published" or some other BS. Rather than silence wrongthink it gets tossed in with all the spam and filtered out.
