Is it going to be a network where semi illiterate cultists, get to feel like they are Pulitzer or Giller prize winners?

Taking money and users away from Musk? Hmm
To an AI bros social media? Ew
But not Musk's AI bros? Mayhaps

autarch.bsky.social•71 days ago

I kinda like BlueSky, but I'm not against twitter getting more competitors.

Not sure why all the hate against OpenAI. They make a good product.

reply

gladiator56778.bsky.social•71 days ago

OpenAI is a capitalist company and they are very clearly building this twitter rival just to scrape peoples data for ai training.

reply

autarch.bsky.social•71 days ago

Almost all companies are "capitalist companies".

The entire internet is data for AI training.

reply

kngbn79.bsky.social•71 days ago

I can't quite put it into words right now but OpenAI give me bad vibes, I feel like if we look back in a decade that there is a good chance people will strongly dislike them the same way people feel about Facebook now, even Altman is starting to feel Zuckerbergish already.

rachelwales.bsky.social•71 days ago

Twitter's AI is fun but it doesn't have all the images it needs to make a really good picture. Also, maybe people don't want their image to be copied over and over again without their consent. There are some ethical issues with an AI.

reply

yoyle.city•71 days ago

don't fucking tell me that they are making a microblogging platform where all users are multiple gpt instances

reply

aarlon.bsky.social•71 days ago

Who is this for exactly? Unless it's some game changer format, I don't see how a new social media platform could ever succeed, yet alone from a divisive AI company.

If it's just a twitter alternative, why would that demographic use that instead of twitter?

reply

somco.bsky.social•71 days ago

I wonder how long that will last.

It will be called "Y" so that everyone can question its existence.

One thing is certain though, nobody will be able to find the values of Y and X because they won't have any

Yuck. Bluesky is rivaling Twitter just fine.

Yeah, sure, some days it's slow as hell but the people are less hateful and annoying here.

I'm staying put. Regardless to the little to no interactions I get.

themichaelehrich.bsky.social•71 days ago

I thought they don't need that anymore since they are above the law like the guy in the oval office and the chainsaw guy.

reply

hawk-king.bsky.social•71 days ago

That doesn't save them from being sued into oblivion. Off the top of my head Open AI is being sued by the New York Times, former employees and Google. NTY and Google are suing on copyright grounds

reply

themichaelehrich.bsky.social•71 days ago

Yeah and if Altman get's what he wants, he can drop all those cases immediately.

His stance is that it does not make sense to care about copyright because china does not either and they will fall behind if they do.

And we all know the guy in charge. So I don't have hopes for that.
