@tante Just as with crypto or blockchain: Look at who is adopting and promoting it and you get a good picture of what ideas lie at the core of a technology 🤝
@tante It's even worse because there's a reason #AxelSpringer [founder and fmr. CEO that is deceased] didn't start #publishing again in 1952, because some reactionaries in Politricks decided to lift bans the Allies put in place in that year.
IMHO one of the worst Post-WW2 - mistakes Germany ever did!
#FoxNews are just content of having their "1st Amendment Right" to knowingly lie to viewers and spread disinformation!
@tante since musk went totally nuts, Döpfner pivots to the next tech poster boy but what is the plan?. Giving away Bildzeitung on LLM? It is only about this tweet and the attention. The springer employees are super excited I bet 🫠
@aramba@tante i wonder about financial details. this has very similar problems to google news, which axel springer tried to fight and force to pay licensing fees (in vain). and i'd assume that google news snippets drive more traffic to a website than a source buried in llm output.
i agree that it's likely a pr stunt and it fits into the accelerationist idea of jumping on the train no matter how fast or where it goes
So Axel Springer is going to lay of it's - erm - writers (I don't call them Journalists), because AI can do their job cheaper. That's good news. Theese are the people, who wrote articles about "lazy" unemployed, etc. Well, let them taste their own poison now. It's also a statment about the quality of the Bild-contets up to now, if AI can take that over.
@cdonat it's more the other route: OpenAI pulls in Axel Springer's feeds. Which is even worse cause it's basically pushing more right wing content into OpenAI's product
