Guy English on Nostr: The thing with AI is that search engines already did the thing where they analyzed ...
The thing with AI is that search engines already did the thing where they analyzed all of your webpages and public writing and then used clever algorithms to surface it. And that was applauded, rightly so. Now they’re out to synthesize your work and the arguments against their ingesting so much information is that it isn’t theirs to take. From a programmer’s perspective it’s all the same. Ingest, compute, produce result. From any understanding of humanity it is deeply unnerving and often wrong.
