  • Re: AI FARMING. WHAT DID YOU LOOK LIKE IN THE 90S

    So there's this new thing that's happening on social media.
    People with a lot of followers are posting videos "mom what did you look like in the 90s'. Celebs are even doing it.
    People are saying it's for Ai to farm data so they can do facial recognition And age progression. I'm sure it's happening someplace.

    yep.. people are basically "working" for free in various ways now on social media. doing surveys, telling their parents eye colors and hair colors and other things to say "hey look how i turned out!" .. they have to make the census compulsory because people hate doing bullshit for free and then they give away all sorts of stuff online..

    same with discord.. which is likely the source of an AI model for guessing people's ages based on how they talk, what about, their interests, etc. and you can pretty much guarantee it also has a nice little graph about whether people "think incorrectly" ..

    even on here, likely owing to the prevalence of that sync web interface, any link i post is immediately scraped by AI .. which obviously means the whole message was.. they all were.

    ah well..

    Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to kill you.

    That's just what they want you to think.

    People have been giving away that type of info forever, but now it used for the purpose of surveillance and other nefarious things. Palantir maybe one.. These other branded cameras going up around my neighborhood that are much smaller..

    You are probably right about all this getting scraped, but I haven't looked at the code of either synchro or dove or whatever is connecting and sending all the bulletins. I use iptables and since i run a mud server on a port that is usually a printer port. I get scanned excessively and then I hand ban 256 ip's everytime almost it seems about every few hours, mostly censys or scanner and hopefully one day I'll get them all, just can't wait til i can deploy it as a firewall before the wifi router..
