@StryderNotavi@indrora@jhilden@mcc It would be interesting (can't think of a better word) to see just how much ChatGPT has affected the "content by the yard" industry.
I know I got a weird email the other day about an old blog post (yes, I still keep a blog, no, no-one ever reads it, and that's okay), suggesting a related topic. It might have been a blandly-writing human, or it may have been an AI.
@jhilden
In the 1897 War of the Worlds the invading Martians were finally defeated by their lack of resistance to the common cold.
In the 2027 Singularity, the AI revolution was defeated by Finnish product naming.
You are never too small to make a difference.
@jhilden
Did… did they even test this before rolling it out? How on earth do you miss that? Unless you implement what you think is a translation system but never actually try switching the system to the other language.
@benjaminhollon@jhilden Sure they tested it. It worked -- it left a review with a star rating.
The better question is if the person who hired out to get the scripting done for the review generation robot ever double-tested the review, or if they just took the contractor's demo on faith.
The business contracted to create the 1000s of fake reviews won't be able to check that all their hired "reviewers" aren't cutting corners by using a chatbot AI service
There are a lot of content farms, sock puppet armies, and fake review generators which can now (probably have) laid off a lot of people. From a reading standpoint, it's both annoying and funny. But from a jobs standpoint, it is going to mean something.
