it would be really easy for Google/Apple to use AI, in its current state, to look for spam/scams in our text messages and emails, and give us tools to declutter these inboxes. it hasn't happened because silicon valley is insanely out of touch and spends 7 days a week smelling their own farts - ThreadSky

My Gmail has instead been getting MORE obviously scam emails delivered to my inbox. Fun!

robdenbleyker.com•2 days ago

yep... the spam bots are certainly using AI to sound more like real people.

I received a spam email sent in the style of my boss's writing. It seriously felt like he was really writing it. I smelled a rat when "he" was asking me to write to him from my personal email account, with no clear reason to do so.

They know their tech still sucks so their plan is to have everyone in the world train their AI models until they don’t completely suck ass.

I've won the lottery eight times this week so far according to my mailbox, I'm a lucky guy

every phone commercial now is a guy walking down the street in New York, asking his AI assistant for dating advice, or how to make lasagna.

The joke will be on you when those fried chips and glue lasagnas net the buyers all the twelve-fingered baddies

Matthew Mcconaughey not knowing about weather since he doesn’t have ai

donkeykonga.bsky.social•2 days ago

If we’re thinking of the same ad, it’s also really funny that he ordered food he didn’t like cause there wasn’t an AI assistant to tell him what to order

joel-skelton.bsky.social•2 days ago

It's a pretty interesting observation. This rhetoric projects the message that normal folks are lost and in disarray without AI.

hydrationchimp.bsky.social•2 days ago

I surely have no idea how to find out the weather without ai assistants

domacrush.bsky.social•2 days ago

I misread this as “… or how to make Viagra”.

AI: "There are several delicious ways to make your date a lasagna"

clohossey.bsky.social•2 days ago

"There are several delicious ways to date a lasagna."

decepetion.bsky.social•2 days ago

There are tasty lasagna in your area looking for a date.

zestychinchilla.bsky.social•2 days ago

"There are several delicious lasagnas to date"

Your joke was better tho

I eat four cheese lasagna. If it only got three cheeses, I ain’t eatin’ it!

susaga.bsky.social•2 days ago

That implies the audience for AI is people who don't know how to cook or hold down a relationship. Which checks out.

crackedcommie.bsky.social•2 days ago

they dont seem to understand that i do not want to talk to my phone even when there is an actual person on the other side, let alone an ai that lies to me

Listen, they need these basic skills.

Commercials for Jon Arbuckle and Garfield.

According to Matthew Mcconaughey if you don't have AI then waiters will sit you out in the rain and give you random food. I assume this is true because I've never been to a restaurant before.

nathanias.bsky.social•2 days ago

imagine if they could determine what types of emails you interact with and automatically "suggest" false positives in your spam for that rare occasion. but nah

clohossey.bsky.social•2 days ago

Nah, that would be a function that actually makes the customer's life better, but more junk mail means more time in app sorting and deleting that shit and thus Google can show growth in user time on platform.
Same reason they keep making search worse.

donkeykonga.bsky.social•2 days ago

They hype up AI as this big game changer but when you ask them what it does all they can say is “it can search the internet and make shitty doodles of women with 4 boobs and 12 fingers”

sunshinex.bsky.social•2 days ago

Who would’ve thought that making companies grow infinitely would be so hard? 🤷🏻‍♂️. Why 7 billion people didn’t want to buy VR ? Goddamn poor people 😡

jekeep.bsky.social•2 days ago

Literally on Rednote this morning and their AI did exactly that. Warned me that one of the messages resembled a particular scam.

colin.hoagie.fun•2 days ago

Instead it helpfully summarizes them and makes them appear more legitimate

kjmayo.bsky.social•2 days ago

Add cleaning up Facebook or most other major social media platforms. Should be easy to detect and root out AI content and bot boosting.

transmorpherdds.bsky.social•2 days ago

I'm sorry, you seem confused... AI is supposed to trick you into actually opening those spam/scam emails, not eliminate them!

Too busy filing reports on the flavor notes and frequency of their flatulence.

thegoonkills.bsky.social•2 days ago

Speaking of Google using AI, be sure to turn that shit off that they just turned on to everyone

An ai that deletes empty folders on your pc

paulbittlestone.bsky.social•2 days ago

Their Fart Fusion Reactor was an epic failure. So to do more Evil they just harvest human misery direct from your brain to the device.

onelessnumber.bsky.social•2 days ago

Google does do this, at least for calls and texts. It's one of the fews things I still like about my Pixel. It automatically declines known/marked as spam and warns you of suspected spam.

petegeek.bsky.social•2 days ago

Meta AI can detect a photo not meeting its "community standards" from 7 years ago but has issues picking up the same scam/phishing script sent multiple times daily 🤔
