Dans #r/Costco – un groupe #Reddit consacré à la chaîne de #magasins bien connue –, c’était la consternation. La grosse bouteille d’huile d’olive qu’ils achetaient depuis des années – la meilleure et la moins chère, disaient-ils – coûtait soudain deux fois plus cher qu’avant.

#Google Is Paying #Reddit $60 Million for #Fucksmith to Tell Its Users to Eat #Glue

The complete destruction of Google Search via forced #AI adoption and the carnage it is wreaking on the internet is deeply depressing, but there are bright spots. For example, as the prophecy foretold, we are learning exactly what Google is paying Reddit $60 million annually for. And that is to confidently serve its customers ideas like, to make cheese stick on a pizza, “you can also add about 1/8 cup of non-toxic glue” to #pizza sauce, which comes directly from the mind of a Reddit user who calls themselves “Fucksmith” and posted about putting glue on pizza 11 years ago.

The fediverse, explained

The Verge

The buzziest new thing in social networking is a big deal. It’s also very confusing. And it’s not actually new. (...)

Illustration: fediverse as interconnected sociale media
.

So what is the fediverse?
It’s an interconnected social platform ecosystem based on an open protocol called ActivityPub, which allows you to port your content, data, and follower graph between networks.

What?

Ugh, I know. Let me try again.

The fediverse is as if you took X, TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook and made them all interoperable so you could post anything from anywhere, and all your followers would be guaranteed to see it. And if you wanted to leave one platform for another, you could bring all your content, all your followers, all your everything with you. (...)

But all of this stuff only works if there is a standard, and I’d bet $10 that ActivityPub is going to be that standard. It’s the one that’s overseen by the World Wide Web Consortium, it’s the one with the most momentum, it’s the one Threads is supposedly going to support — it’s just kind of clearly winning. (...)

So why would I leave Instagram and Facebook?
That’s the big question. Do you like Instagram and Facebook?

I mean, sure. It’s where all my friends are.
That is the single biggest problem for the fediverse. A lot of folks I’ve talked to say that, basically, if we’d built social media like this 20 years ago, the world would be better and smarter and we’d all be richer and better-looking. (Or something.) But we didn’t. We built it on a bunch of closed platforms that turned out to be really sticky, really lucrative for the companies that made them, and frankly kind of user-hostile. But it’s really, really hard to convince people to stop hanging out where their friends are and go join something new just because it’s better. That transition will take a long time, if it ever happens. (...)

We Can't Compete With #AI Girlfriends

source: https://www.freyaindia.co.uk/p/we-cant-compete-with-ai-girlfriends

How can we compete with that? Already women in relationships complain about #porn - addicted partners who aren’t satisfied with actual intimacy. Now we’re facing a #future where guys could get addicted to emotional validation elsewhere, sneaking away for some of that unparalleled devotion. Worse, what about young boys who grow up with this? Whose first sexual #experience is chatting with AI #women who never say no, never argue, never have original thoughts or an identity of their own—and then they try to date a real girl? There’s already all these men on #Reddit raving about how their AI girlfriends never argue, complain or get bored of them, while real #girls continually disappoint.
