A website called zleague.gg has been scraping Reddit threads, feeding them into an AI and publishing auto-generated summaries without proper oversight. World of Warcraft players on Reddit noticed this and created a fake thread about a made-up feature called Glorbo to trick the AI. The AI then published an article summarizing the fake Glorbo thread, showing that it was easily fooled. This highlights issues with AI-generated content crowding out human writers and the need for Google to better regulate such sites to ensure quality. The Glorbo prank provides an amusing example of how gaming communities can push back against AI overreach.
Realistically, the industry here would be Google, Microsoft and Facebook. <s> All of whom I’d definitely trust with this </s>
The legislators themselves should be getting educated instead so they can actually make good decisions.
But that’s not what happens.
Greatest recent example is Elizabeth Warren. She supposedly wasn’t going to bow down to the big banks and wrote legislation to “help” the consumer. All she did was end up writing legislation that the big banks highly approved of, killed off many of the smaller banks and made banking way less competitive so that the consumers are suffering.
But if you get a coalition (example ICANN) to regulate stuff, you’ll get a better mix of both small and large companies.
