We've had enough of artificial intelligence so they're switching to artificial stupidity?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

We can try to pretend like this will hurt OpenAI, just like we tried to pretend that killing the API would hurt Reddit, or that no one would buy their stock, or that it would plummet right after IPO, but none of that is reality.

It ain't none of those artificial doodad those whippersnapper fabricated, no sir, these are genuine, fully, 100% natural stupidity.

I can't wait for chatGPT to learn it should answer every disjunctive question with "por que no los dos?"

So many answers will be a poop knife or put a sock on it.

The new game will be to see how fast you can get OpenAI to compare something to Hitler.

Good thing I used a script to edit all my posts and comments into Lemmy promo and info about Reddit paywalling 3rd party apps before I left. I hope ChatGPT uses it in a reply to someone xD.

Pretty sure at this point reddit is keeping copies of all your edits.

I'm seeing a lot of negativity here, and I just got to wonder: have you even thought about how the shareholders feel!?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I saw "reddit" and "strike" and got excited. But...

Can you tell if an AI is being trained on these Lemmy instances? How would you detect it and stop it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

Given that anyone can access the posts, I would say that anyone (AI companies) can access the posts.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


OpenAI has signed a deal for access to real-time content from Reddit’s data API, which means it can surface discussions from the site within ChatGPT and other new products.

It’s an agreement similar to the one Reddit signed with Google earlier this year that was reportedly worth $60 million.

The deal will also “enable Reddit to bring new AI-powered features to Redditors and mods” and use OpenAI’s large language models to build applications.

Recently, following news of a partnership between OpenAI and the programming messaging board Stack Overflow, people were suspended after trying to delete their posts.

No financial terms were revealed in the blog post announcing the arrangement, and neither company mentioned training data, either.

That last detail is different from the deal with Google, where Reddit explicitly stated it would give Google “more efficient ways to train models.” There is, however, a disclosure mentioning that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is also a shareholder in Reddit but that “This partnership was led by OpenAI’s COO and approved by its independent Board of Directors.”


The original article contains 334 words, the summary contains 174 words. Saved 48%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Do we actually care what anyone who’s still posting on Reddit thinks?
