"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I was looking at the offer of rehearsal.so, a site using AI to allegedly help you rehearse giving job interviews, delivering presentations and such.

A LOT of the content is sociopathic in nature and there are a lot of simulations for "getting her number", but the top offer in the Dating section is this one "getting her number in the middle of a protest".

I think this highlights well the real problem of digital technology in general and of the generative AI domain in particular: applications are being made by selfish people (men, mostly) who think that any situation should serve their goals and that the original point of those can be completely disregarded.

All of this while surely serving a sub-par product, since "training" and condescending AI chatbots don't really go well together: nearly all of the AI chats I had with AI "characters" could be easily jailbroken even into sexual ones.

If anyone tries to get your personal information at a protest, they are 100% a cop.

Stubborn environmental activist

God I would pay to watch one of these guys get beat up by trying this at a real protest...

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 9 points 1 day ago

Eh, a beating is unlikely, but they'd definitely get pushed out.

Makes sense. The kind of dude who asks "AI" how to pick up women at a protest is exactly the kind of dude that women at protests would avoid.
