LLMs are never divorced from human interaction or curation. They are trained by people from the start, so personal curation seems like a weird caveat to get hung up on with this study. The AI is simply a tool that is being used by people to fool people.
To take it to another level on the artistic spectrum, you could get a talented artist to make pencil drawings to mimic oil paintings, then mix them in with actual oil paintings. Now ask a bunch of people which ones are the real oil paintings and record the results. The human interaction is what made the pencil look like an oil painting, but that doesn’t change the fact that the pencil generated drawings could fool people into thinking they were an oil painting.
AIs like the ones used in this study are artistic tools that require very little actual artistic talent to utilize, but just like any other artistic tool, they fundamentally need human interaction to operate.
2 received the maximum of 60 months for “conspiring to defraud the United States by distributing an unapproved and mislabeled drug”
2 received 151 months for “conspiring to defraud the United States by distributing an unapproved and mislabeled drug” AND contempt of court.
Glad that the judge threw the book at them, but I find it a little concerning that they got so much more time for contempt of court (91 months) than they did for selling bleach as a COVID cure (60 months). Seems to me that selling people something that may kill them under false pretenses is much more serious of an offense than disrespecting the court. 60 month maximum just seems quite low comparitively.
You take your DOG to a groomer, not your child, and what I’m asking is that we not apply the word groomer to people that influence children in ways that aren’t pedophilic in nature, which is what the right wing are doing by labeling drag queens and other LGBT people “groomers” whenever they have any association with children.
Even if the former’s 99%, Reddit does not give a shit as long as they collect the revenue.
This is basically Citizens United for Reddit, but substantially worse because at least with CU, they’re required to disclose donors. Reddit allows these awards to be bought anonymously, so you’re rarely able to understand who is doing the manipulation.
“Grooming” has been apolitically used for decades to refer to manipulation tactics that pedophiles use to convince children to perform sex acts. The right-wing recently began devaluing it by using “groomer” as a pejorative against people who aren’t pedophiles.
Companies trying to covertly advertise their products to children are not “groomers” in the traditional pedophilic sense, so referring to them as such only serves to perpetuate this right-wing bastardization of the word, which in turn makes it much more difficult for people to take the word seriously when someone uses it to refer to actual pedophiles.
I completely disagree with your definition of “media.”
There is definitely plenty of media that isn’t about celebrity, and there is also non-profit media. Media actually refers to communication to the masses. A social network is simply one form of social media.
No, Reddit was always considered social media despite how you or most people see it. Some social media managers have had Reddit in their job description for over ten years. I know because I hired some as early as 2010.
Social media did not start with Facebook like most people assume. Facebook is simply what brought social media into the mainstream. Usenet and forums are a form of social media that many of us old nerds have been using since the 90s.
