the ignorance required to lean into ‘AI’ in such a way all but ensures this
it’s pretty telling that I hear AI talked about and seemingly used most by conservative types, I imagine because it’s being pushed by influencers in that realm and the same people bankrolling ‘AI’ everywhere. people that are already comfortable with blind faith… makes a bit of sense
then you still have people who are used to challenging and questioning things still upholding skepticism and not trusting ai because it all reeks of shit
AI for next pope!
That and conservatives abhor thinking. They need someone or something to defer to. And LLMs can give them all sorts of moderately intelligent bullshit they’ve come to expect . From their leaders and politicians. But better and faster. With possibly even less accuracy.
Are these the same users that think the sycophant machine really loves them?
Says in the article the users clicked “share chat” then shared the links with others on services like What’s App.
Sounds like What’s App should get some flack for this too.
I don’t see why, least my understanding, you hit share chat, it creates a public link… google’s robots discover everything public and index it. Seems to me like the same problem would happen if you generated a link to share on any platform, and burned it and never sent information to any platform. Unless googles indexing all whatsapp messages, but that would be a much bigger story.
Anyway point is blame IMO falls on either chatgpt for not properly configuring a robots.txt, or google for not following it.
How does it discover the link though? Is it crawling your whatsapp chats, or just trying every possible chatgpt share link?
Y’all need to read the 5 minute article. It was a short lived feature where they had a checkbox that said: “index my chat into search engines”. Which is honestly dumb as shit if you ask me.
Apparently these people ticked a box saying “allow this chat to be indexed by search engines” and were surprised when their chats were indexed by search engines?
Oh no. Anyway.
My only thought is “no shit”
‘Make this chat discoverable.’ Beneath that, in smaller, lighter text, was a caveat explaining that the chat could then appear in search engine results."
UX designer here. People don’t read the little gray supporting text. “Search Engine” should’ve been in the headline.
I’ve always been under the impression that the little grey supporting text being little and grey is because the designer didn’t want it read but was required to put it somewhere. A dark pattern, if you will. Is it actually not intended that way?
Well I’m shocked more people don’t ignore the flashing lights at train stations and just drive into the tracks right in front the trains frankly.
They kind of do.
