Kissassery, mostly. Why have one AI inflate your ego when you can have twelve department heads and one AI stroke your ego?

Sadly, the way the system works is they can patent it. Maybe it won’t stand up to challenge, but the patent office is deliberately understaffed and underfunded to do a proper up-front review.

“My SO isn’t Carolina Reaper hot or even Sriracha hot, not even really habanero or jalapeño hot - heck, the hottest thing in the house is probably the Tapatío.”

While I agree that this is likely not tied to specific real events, this is !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world, and that sorta low effort content is accepted here.

I think this is a 'shop rather than AI - but I could be wrong (and you said slop, not necessarily AI slop). It strikes me as dumb because if I were the wife doing this, I’d grab something with more kick than Tapatio.

Heck, I bet I could find some kinksters that do this sorta thing for fun. (But remember kids, consent is key!)

Racing to the bottom

Next: you pay for the game, pay for the time, pay per click, and now competitive losses count toward your profile free, but wins don’t count unless they’re validated with Xbox gems, now available in 10-packs.

No, we can’t, that’s literally what Union busting is - intentionally adding as much friction as possible to people agreeing on that very thing. Perhaps we would if we could but powerful forces work such that we can’t, even if it could be argued we ought be allowed.

FFS.

Counterpoint - if we were on .ML these people would be blocked - they’re exercising their freedom.

We’re not on Reddit, Facebook, or X and you’ll find whole communities of haters for those sites, too.

Believe it or not, negativity tends to spread further than positivity in general as we are a risk-averse species, and it’s one of the documented harms of social media in general. You’re probably gonna find some version of this style of bitching no matter where ya go, it’s a human thing.

No, many people know this; but there are virgin minds born every day. Consider XKCD’s classic Ten Thousand. Part of the vigilance means doing the documentation, and on a social media platform, that means periodic updates as content. Few people take up arms on a fight that nobody can see.

This person is doing good work 😋, even if the conclusion is unsurprising.
