During the call, the Reddit co-founder said the company would begin testing AI-powered search results later this year [and] that search could one day be a significant source of advertising revenue for the company.

this does not seem to be an alternative to the existing method of profiting from ads etc., but more of an additional way to make loads of money

i mean, thats great! but the moneys gotta come from somewhere, and in most cases someone else is being exploited.

most non-profits actually suffer from this issue where getting funding is the number one priority.

the organization has to bend its methods to what will look good on paper vs what would actually be best for their cause

what is ur answer to this system?

theres companies making money off of prison labor, if u want a not very subtle example. in the US, prisons are also for-profit institutions, making it even more insidious.

then ur typical capitalist labor situation ofc. ur boss makes more off of their workers labor than their workers get paid. this "surplus value" is how bosses get richer than the ppl who work for them; all without having to do any actual work of their own.

ow also landlords who rent housing to ppl for a price, often providing very little or even no maintenance at all for that building. this exploits peoples need of shelter for the landlords personal gain, as landlords squeeze as much money out of ppl as they can get away with (also for example, keeping security deposits for no good reason).

yea would be interesting. but im also too lazy to type all that text in by hand to verify

 

hi all, i saw a post (or perhaps it was in the comments) about 1-2 weeks ago of a website to download any youtube/vimeo/instagram/tiktok/whatever video/audio in many different formats. it was a FOSS website. dark background, with maybe red text in places? on mobile, it had tabs on the bottom for video/audio/other.

i tried searching for it for a while now with no success. was hoping someone here mightve seen it too and bookmarked it..

i remember finding it via a lemmy post or comment.

if anyone can help me out its greatly appreciated!

thanks yall <3
