a lot we've seen, but it's still use of unethical AI tools trained illegally on stolen intellectual property. This wan't done by a team of actors with a writer and producer. This is pure AI, like the AI video fakes of Rachel Maddow, Jimmy Kimmel, etc.

I looked beyond whether if was AI or not and LOVED the tongue-in-cheek humor.

I then went ahead and checked out the other generations and they are all SPOT ON and funny as hell..

only reason those descriptions of Gen X, etc., seem accurate is that they obviously used AI to write the description, compiling what's most often said about those groups.

This AI slop could be from a foreign content farm. It's an insult to everyone whose work was stolen to train the AI, and it doesn't belong on a liberal message board.

You might as well announce that you don't give a fuck about all the artists and writers whose work was stolen, because that is the message you're sending to anyone fighting exploitation by AI companies.

training data.

I wish it weren't AI. But because it is, I have to oppose it.

I've talked to too many near-suidal artists and horribly depressed teachers to want to see AI promoted in any way.

I don't know if you.saw the threads I posted about the response the head of the American Federation of Teachers got on Bluesky when she posted AI slop last month. Some teachers want her out. just for posting AI slop once, because of what it represents.

American Federation of Teachers president thought AI slop would be "fun" to share on Bluesky. Big mistake.

If you support unions (DUers should) but still think it's OK to post AI slop, see the hundreds of Bluesky replies
