What could possibly go wrong?!
Also, it’s really cool how everything is going straight to hell. /s
The anti-woke campaigner brought legal action against Meta – owner of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp – after the company’s artificial intelligence chatbot falsely stated he took part in the riot at the US Capitol on 6 January, 2021, seeking $5 million in damages.
As part of the settlement, as reported by The Wall Street Journal, Starbuck will advise Meta on how to prevent political bias in its AI.
What the actual…? I’ve never heard that someone gets hired as part of a settlement where both parties were opponents.
What’s the conspiracy? That the wealthy elites use queer people as scary “others” to trick the gullible into being afraid of queer people for the sole intent of distracting the gullible into letting the wealthy elites continue to exploit them?
Corporations and fascists. Name a more iconic duo.
I feel like this person needs to do some soul searching because he might be the thing he’s against
Pushing me closer and closer to giving up my social web on Facebook due to this bullshit bro, it’s really freaking close right now, gosh darn it.
You’re still on Facebook?!
edit: ah, I see what you mean by “social web” now. Sorry about that. Admittedly, I have to use Whatsapp for that precise reason.
Yeah, I really wish we had something open and standardized that we could use to keep in touch, like with group chats and such. I never use the feed part of Facebook. I don’t even have the Facebook app. I just use the Messenger. But I still want out. Have wanted for a long time. I actually managed to convert most of my most contacted mates to Signal.
You won’t miss it for long. If you are looking for some sort of ethical trigger, it’s already happened man, don’t kid yourself, it’s an addiction.
It’s been happening for years. I’ve been wanting out since before Trump’s first term.
I’m not addicted though, I don’t even use Facebook. I only use the Messenger to write with my friends. But I want to move the remaining two most contacted over to Signal. They refuse. Say “I don’t want another app. I’m too old for new shit.” 😩 They are in their thirties and grew up watching the Internet evolve, how are they this bad.
Best time was yesterday. Fuck Meta, fuck Zuck. Just make sure your homies can text you
Yeah, it’s really, really bad now. Yesterday’s news was what triggered me hard. I’m not even queer in any way — cis and straight — but don’t fk with my fellow humans’ rights. That’s unacceptable.
They look like an undercooked Gerard Way
That dude just needs to come out of the closet.
It is almost like antitrust lawsuits shouldn’t be used as a political tool
We all know Meta is scared of Vance pushing for a big tech breakup.
