Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Don't misunderstand me- I fucking hate LLMs and generative slop. I'm not commenting on whether the statement was made in good faith (I doubt it was), I'm just pointing out that we've been using the term "AI" as a descriptor of npc behavior for decades and it's disingenuous to suggest otherwise.
