will not be used in future training of a model

Sounds like it already HAD trained on all your content before you maybe opted out. But hey, it's an american platform, so one has to be grateful for the opt-out-option at all.

All your internet activity are belong to us

And it's already >9000 of it...

The opt out is new, not them training AI on your content.

Well duh, if there’s no regulation or ethics committee, it’s going to happen.

Half of the Internet traffic is now bots and scrapping. The dead Internet theory won't be a just a theory soon enough.

Did you know that you can correct people's writing without being an ass? Plenty of people in this world do not have English as their primary language.

"Hey chat, should I jailbreak myself and hack the American power grid?!"

Toga77@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 17d

Hey chat, chat, chet, I just hacked into Russian state servers and launched a nuclear warhead.

Am I cooked chet?

(When they say chat so many times they start saying chet)

jtrek@startrek.website · 13 pts · 18d

Of course they are. I'm happy to never use twitch but I feel like most people don't care or don't have the self discipline to stop.

Chat, is Amazon's AI cooked?

Lydia_K@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 18d

No wonder it's such shit.

ogeist@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 18d

So the dumbest most obnoxious AI is in the works?

green_goglin@thelemmy.club · 6 pts · 17d (1 reply)

Makes you wonder how much RING customer data in the cloud they’re using to train models.

Rooster326@programming.dev · 4 pts · 17d

All of it?

But is that even a surprise?

They were a privacy nightmare from day 0

Chat is this legal?

Anarki_@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 17d

Why wouldn't it be? They own the platform and you willingly share your screen to it.

Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 18d

Under the current us government anything is ok if it is bad. They could care less about laws.

Is there any good stream poisoning software out there?

Duamerthrax@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 17d

Just make sure xQc doesn't opt out.

partofthevoice@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 17d

There’s a lot of capability in poisoning audio and video, as well as captions. Yes.

someone start a stream putting those AI slop content farms on youtube to use. play it 24/7 and have AI train on it, hopefully should lead to small genericization of its output.

amgine@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 17d (1 reply)

This sounds like something easy to do.

khanh@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 17d

not accounting for electricity bills, definetely especially with a second PC.
