'YouTube has stopped two major fake movie trailer channels from being able to monetize their videos. The video-hosting giant has turned off ad revenue on Screen Culture and KH Studio trailers after a Deadline investigation chronicled the scale and sophistication of their output.'
Thank GOD!! These two are definitely the worst offenders, but there are more that need to get attention asap. We need to just put a nationwide ban on this slop once and for all.
｢ The goals of the advertising business model do not always correspond to providing quality search to users. … we expect that advertising funded search engines will be inherently biased towards the advertisers and away from the needs of the consumers. … But we believe the issue of advertising causes enough mixed incentives that it is crucial to have a competitive search engine that is transparent and in the academic realm ｣

@grrlscientist Please CW AI photos. They’re not real and shouldn’t circulate. Tempted to report! #AI #aiGenerated #fakePhotography #aiSlop
Sehr cooles Video von #FunkyFrogBait zu #AI, #AISlop und #ArtificialIntelligence überhaupt.
Sehenswert.
One more reason not to us #AISlop images:
You don’t want to look like a Republican, do you?

Queridas personas, fíjense en lo que está pasando. Usar el "filtro #Ghibli" de #ChatGPT no es simpático ni inofensivo. Es darle publicidad gratis a una compañía que no respeta el trabajo creativo de nadie y que expresamente está robando la labor no sólo de Hayao #Miyazaki, sino de un estudio entero de #artistas. Es agregar todavía más basura a #internet.

MS needs to corrupt everything with its AI malware, ffs.

We have ChatGPT but we don't have chicken eggs.
@peterpur It looks like Springer may have withdrawn the book; the link I had in my post now goes to a "page not found" message rather than a book cover page. (It still shows up in SpringerLink search hits, but unlike other book hits lacks a working link.)
I haven't seen any official announcement or news mentions, though.

Search turned to shit yesterday on duck duck go when I got a full page and a half of links to adobe
Yesterday my android shouted at me when I was bitching about google wanting to set up AI assistant, no thank you.
can someone point me into a somewhat safe direction for search
This is the modern Clippy except its only purpose is to tell me to pay Notion more for a feature I don’t want, and I can’t get rid of it. So the next likely step is getting rid of Notion at some point. #aislop
Dead Internet Theory, only it’s AI crawlers scraping AI-generated content farms forever
I do not like this trend of people adding text to #AISlop to justify slapping a signature on there as though it were real art.
"The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP's) national internet censor just announced that all AI-generated content will be required to have labels that are explicitly seen or heard by its audience and embedded in metadata. The Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) just released the transcript for the media questions and answers (akin to an FAQ) on its Measures for the Identification of Artificial Intelligence Generated and Synthetic Content [machine translated]. We saw the first signs of this policy move last September when the CAC's draft plans emerged.
This regulation takes effect on September 1, 2025, and will compel all service providers (i.e., AI LLMs) to “add explicit labels to generated and synthesized content.” The directive includes all types of data: text, images, videos, audio, and even virtual scenes. Aside from that, it also orders app stores to verify whether the apps they host follow the regulations.
Users will still be able to ask for unlabeled AI-generated content for “social concerns and industrial needs.” However, the generating app must reiterate this requirement to the user and also log the information to make it easier to trace. The responsibility of adding the AI-generated label and metadata falls on the shoulders of this end-user person or entity."
LLMs are a nuisance.
There’s the slop aspect where their output is creating extra work (scientific paper review, conference submissions review, code review).
And there’s the crawling where their input is creating extra work/load. Many websites (ours included) are affected by this, having to spend time to try and block the crawlers or live with the huge traffic increases.
None of these costs are born by the vendors.
