Interesting take. In all of the defences of LLMs using copyrighted material it’s very often highlighted that “fair use” allows exactly such summaries of larger texts.

In reality, “fair use” is ruled on a case by case basis, so it’s impossible to judge whether something is or not without it going to court.

Is this bot a closed system which is being used for profit? No, you know exactly what its source is (the single article it is condensing) and even has a handy link about how it is open source at the end of every single post.

I don’t think anyone’s going to pay for your version of ChatGPT

BRAIN MELTING

No, I grew up eating foods that I could be certain weren’t made up of 99% corn syrup.

Oh sorry, you’re right, there’s an address for more info. I shall scribe my correspondence post haste in order to discover the nature of the product on the shelf.

You know what else is odd? That you’re staunchly defending this label with barely any information on it. Pretty much every point you’ve made is “but why does it need information”…

I thought it was my EU brain interpreting it that way. The alternative, like your wine example, is basically a black market cut product anywhere else.

As other people said, in the EU with “honey blend” you’d expect a blend of different types of honey, as it wouldn’t be allowed to be call honey unless it was pure honey. Having to decipher “made with real honey” to mean “its not real honey” is just fucking odd. Flip it over and look at the ingredients and its just a list? Why no percentages?

Gourmet stuff comes in all sorts of weird packaging and shitty stuff comes in fancy packaging, so having to assume it is corn syrup because it’s in a bear shape is also weird.

No rules for food labelling is wild.

I thought botulism was the main threat.

I’m confused there are no packaging standards in the US. Is the first ingredient the largest? How do you know if there’s no percentage given?

Just imagine how much Bill Gates knows about him. He’s got more microchips in him than a supercomputer!

If he gets $223M a year for being a detriment to society, I should be getting at least $446M for being relatively neutral.

Making money by destroying/burying digital media. What a backwards world we live in…

This practice feels like something that should be illegal. Effectively it is destroying art that hundreds or thousands of people worked hard to make, for the sake of fiddling the books of the owning company that commissioned it.

If you “write it off” to be worth zero, it should either become freely available abandonware, or can be claimed as the intellectual property of those that worked on it. Otherwise it is evident that there is some value to be had and therefore tax fraud to claim it has none.

Idk, he is still managing to sell way overpriced versions of existing tech to people. Albeit much less polished. His main mistake is exposing himself as an idiot at every opportunity, rather than keeping the mystique to make it seem cool.

I guess if you were going for that post-apocalyptic mad max vibe the cybertruck offers then this is the perfect accessory!

Really looks like someone made a makeshift shelter out of trash bags over the shell of a wrecked old shitty truck.

I think the worst part is they gave streamers and influencers the actual promised canvas bag. That shows someone made this shitty decision and knew it was shitty.
