I would be 0% surprised to learn that the modelfarmers "iterated" to "hmm, people are doing a lot of logic tests, let's handle those better" and that that's what gets here

(I have no evidence for this, but to me it seems a completely obvious/evident way for them to try keep the party going)

fuck off

kiiiiiiind of a pretty weird post to be making with a thread necro-reply tbh

thought up a new simile for agi noises:

all the “super-intelligent agi” stuff is them rattling a sheet of metal and calling it thunder

this has been happening for a while, just getting coverage again now. first coverage was months ago. morphed/evolved pretty quickly out of the typosquatting shit

((a lot of people in the) security space absolutely fucking loves "giving names" to things that have been (known to be) happening before, and acting like suddenly they're the ones who first saw the thing. see this nonsense for another good example of that happening)

for the same reasons as this, not really a thing I'd post, even in jest

the existence of these callcenters (often in india, but hardly only there - much of africa is beset by the same problem) is an outright fucking feature of the years-long capitalist market optimisation hell-loop. and as annoying as their "output" (for lack of a better word) may be in one's daily life, at the end of the day it's still a bunch of people at the bottom rung getting fucked

(e: I mention "callcenters" but "AI support centers"/"data review"/"remote shoppers"/.... - it's all the same fucking exploitation-offshoring dynamic)

+1! and there's so many better options anyway!

right off the top of my head (in addition to inside/instead): incognito, insecurely

not true! if I want to be really fucking angry, pgp is a great solution to getting that done quickly!

oh good for once it's not me thinking up the cursed word
