The AI arm race has done so much damage to the environment and is creating more ewaste also. It sucks.

I’ve seen a DankPods video about an “AI powered” rice cooker, turns out it was a marketing tactic to sell more of them. It’s actually just an ordinary rice cooker.

I’m too young to have one of these when I was a kid, but it probably has some “Ai” in there… youtu.be/NtnX-updkvE?si=dV_1bIuE_3Oxbd-K

Yup. They don’t understand what it is or what it does. All they know is that it makes even dumber venture capitalists open their wallets.

The PR Marketing guys sure don’t, but the actual Machine Learning and AI computer scientists sure do!

I’d wager a lot of marketing people only skim the basic surface of what it does and just plaster it to their supervisors without you know… working with the ACTUAL technical experts in that field.

Plus they think the non techie is a dum dum who don’t know no better.

ToucheGoodSir ,

Classic MBA holders. They don’t understand where their companies profitably comes from and why, and are just trying to squeeze out profits. What parasites. Ah if I could deworm them. Individually. Up the butt kek. With actual dewormer. Maybe they’d get their act together.

Hey, just four days ago their selling point was that it had a rainbow on it.

Anything to make a buck.

AlligatorBlizzard ,

At least the rainbow one will continue to work, without monthly payments, until it runs out of ink.

thatKamGuy ,

Epson & HP stocks in free-fall following this revelation.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Unfortunately, it will only continue to work for another two weeks because pride merchandise is made as cheaply as possible.

AlligatorBlizzard ,

Unfortunately, so is basically everything else.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, but they make the stuff to appease them queer folks especially cheap. Why not save a buck when you only have to care about them one month a year?

Noodle07 ,

Everybody missed out on gay AI last month

The answer to the original riddle is “Sure, can I have your phone to make a demonstration. Great. I’ll sell the phone and pen back as a package deal for $100.”

Agent641 ,

This is theft of the phone, so it does accurately demonstrate how corporations work.

Olhonestjim ,

I always thought a good one was to put the pen in your pocket and refuse to give it back. Make him name his price. Clearly it’s yours, not his. Otherwise how could you sell it to him?

setsneedtofeed ,
@setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world avatar

To a person like that a mere pen is basically worthless as a hostage.

Olhonestjim ,

Thats exactly the kind of unethical salesmanship he used to hire for.

setsneedtofeed ,
@setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world avatar

That’s why my proposed solution is to take the phone though. Much more valuable hostage.

nexussapphire ,

This looks like this guy is being force fed a spoon full of mdma rocks and I want to be committed to this specific nursing home when I’m old.

What a company calls “AI powered” in fact is stolen data and or underpaid workers on the periphery of capitalism

nexussapphire ,

Or some Indian guy clicking images/answering questions for 3 cents a set.
