Never I mean never stop bitching on any online platform about this stuff. One of the few positives Ai gives to the public is that shareholders are now immediately effected when the Ai summary of the internet is collective outrage.
This will never stop happening so never stop bitching. Make sure anytime Ai is mentioned the only thing you can see in the comment section is memes or jokes about how shit the products are or how evil the ceos are.
Hah! That website wants me to disable my adblocker. TechCrunch can fuck right off. :)
I thought about using a new York times article first and thought you guys would say that you can’t read the article, the second one I picked I never heard of and looked ai generated, before I picked this one and decided I don’t care you guys get what happened from the headlines. I did not even read this article specifically.
To summarize the basics. They removed the @feature but much of everything else exists. More should of been removed but the worst aspect of it that was akin handing everyone a loaded naked gun was removed. A lot of whitewashing about how they care about the community, but only after you don’t consent.
Yep. I know the feeling.
Once I wanted to share something cool, but the source was bad. I tried another source, and it was worse. I kept on looking, and it took mea a while to find a tolerable article about the topic. The one I ended up sharing didn’t have the catchy wording any more, didn’t mention the cool things I wanted to highlight, but at least you could click it. I had to think twice do I even want to share anything at all.
A lot of the stuff I read comes from RSS feeds, and ill read numerous articles about the same thing mainly because it shows up numerous times. I don’t get ads for most websites these days, so I don’t know what’s going to jump scare you with a new minions movie ad. And for this I just felt like I needed any article because it pretty much sums it up in the headline for this. I have no idea what is even a respectable news sourse anymore.
Fucking looking at a picture of hunter bidens penis is legit mainstream news that my grandparents would of told me to respect. But I’ll consume everything and anything, sometimes even wrong information is useful to the right audience. As in sometimes an example of what one side will push on, or won’t display is helpful to some end.
It’s cool I’ll have a look for an archive link later. Short on time right now though :)
I don’t know what’s good ediqute for sharing links anymore.
If it’s likely to be behind a paywall or disabled adblock function always try and search for an archive link if you can and post that instead. :)
Earlier this week, Meta announced Muse Image, a new AI image generator built by Meta Superintelligence Labs, its dedicated AI unit. Meta promoted one feature that allowed individuals to generate images by @-mentioning public Instagram accounts that they wanted to reference. The feature, which wasn’t designed to alert a user if their photos were used in this way, prompted immediate backlash.
TechCrunch wrote its own guide on how to disable the feature.
Now Meta has reversed course. The company issued a blog post Friday announcing that it was removing the feature. Puck News founding partner Dylan Byers was the first to share the company’s decision.
“Our intent was to provide a useful creative tool and to give people control over whether their public content could be referenced in this way,” the company posted on its blog. “We’ve heard the feedback that this feature missed the mark, so it’s no longer available.”
TechCrunch reached out to Meta for more information and will update this article if it responds.
Since its integration with social media platforms, AI has been misused with wild abandon — often to generate naked images of female celebrities. Platforms have attempted to mitigate this trend, although the guardrails introduced have often fallen short.
In the case of Meta’s newly nixed feature, it seems somewhat obvious that it would have been abused in this way. Indeed, Byers notes that the decision to do away with the feature came “amid scrutiny from users and talent agencies, including CAA
you might want to get a better adblocker/filter, i don’t see any nagging with my ublock origin
The HW I was on did not have a choice unfortunately so it’s an old version of Brave. I’ve no doubt if I’d accessed it on the workstation I’d have had no issues. :)
