This morning, I opened some "traditional" social media, which I still follow mainly to stay up to date on local information and events. I did a personal survey: out of 50 posts I saw, 35 were clearly AI-generated (even by ordinary people), some completely inaccurate and imprecise, not to mention "fake news".
Ten were almost unreadable and incomprehensible due to the level of ignorance they showed, and five were ads. Zero were status updates from people I actually know and would be interested in reading.I wonder how people have gotten so used to all this. But, looking around and talking to people, it seems this is their new normal, and they've become accustomed to this way of writing and thinking. Fake news has become their primary source of information.
A few days ago, I saw someone writing an email in an office. I felt a glimmer of hope when I saw them doing it by hand, but then I was saddened to see the result was almost identical to an AI's: the same structure, the same tone, the same emojis.
We've become so accustomed to these artificial creations that now, even unconsciously, we are the ones emulating them.

@stefano You are absolutely right! =)
Jokes aside, I think, effects of such "backwards education" are clearly underestimated. Why develop AI to the level of human reasoning when you can lower the human reasoning standards to the desired level?
So we live to feed the data to AI to train it, and at the same time are being trained by it which basically produces positive feedback with degenerative effects on human mind. -

@stefano I don't think any of that is necessarily new, though. The professional e-mails I write are still constructed from bog-standard templates I have learned at some point.
I hope this email finds you well, let me circle back, I am reaching out because, thank you for reaching out, kind regards.
We've been talking in preestablished fake patterns for ages. That's what professionalism is, for better or for worse.

@lianna that's why I never adopted that "professionalism". It's just fake text, digital pollution, wasted bytes. Nobody is really reading those sentences 🙂

Stefano's post and lianna's response are probably going to enter into my morning meditation! How deep does this "fake" thing go? My personal fakeness? Cultural? Religious? I want to sit in the stillness with this. I need to hear more truth on it. You have given me a starting point I had not seen.

@stefano Looked at from the environmental perspective, this is the frogs turning up the heat in their own kettle.

@mason moreover, how much energy and storage is wasted for all that, useless mess? So they're not only increasing the frog's water, but the entire world's one.

Cieli sereni vedere vorrei di Linda Martin (Piove di Sacco, 2005)
Cieli sereni vedere vorrei
Ma per ora frastagliate sono ancora
Le speranze celesti di
Di poter abbracciare
Verdi pianure
Limpide alture ... https://cctm.website/linda-martin-italia/#lindamartin #poesia #cctmwebsite #anoipiaceleggere #leggere

Idea gratis per chi è in grado di sviluppare software: Duolingo ma che fa parte del fediverso.
Ogni istanza può proporre il proprio percorso di apprendimento (o anche più di uno) per lingua. Ed ogni esercizio diventa un’occasione per interagire con le persone che stanno imparando la lingua assieme a te.
I percorsi poi possono essere costruiti anche dai singoli utenti e distribuiti su istanze diverse. La gente può “forkare” i percorsi di apprendimento e ridistribuirli con modifiche.

Ho attraversato quel sistema di grotte in UK (Lancaster Hole to Wretched Rabbit) nell'estate del 1999, quand'ero ancora un ragazzo, in compagnia di alcuni amici irlandesi e scozzesi fuori di testa. Fu la mia prima (e ultima) avventura speleo. Nel video non sono riportati i passaggi più pericolosi. Mancavano solo i nani e Gandalf, ma credo di aver intravisto un Balrog.
Entrammo alle 14:30 e uscimmo alle 2;00 di notte.
Never again! Caves are not for me🖕
