- do you mean Tay? that was a touch pre-current-LLM, but it was demonstrative nonetheless
- Hell, I really hope it’s scraping the comments too.
  With what an absolute fucking trash fire YouTube comments are at the moment and Google being suspiciously silent about it, I'm sure that won't cause any issues at all.
  
  "Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake" - Google, circa 2024
  
  tbh my experience has been that YT comments are dramatically better than they used to be
- Generative AI animations already draw completely cursed faces, I can't wait to see what they do with youtuber face.
  Gee I wonder why Sora used a balloon head for their big demo. I'm sure that's a coincidence.
- These things are scraping absolutely fucking anything that might get them closer to Superintelligence^tm, I fully believe the comments are getting scraped as well.
- Tay was a tad different than simply scraping Twitter as it learned based off responses and there was a concerted effort to troll it and make it racist.
  
  I'd argue there is a decades old concerted effort to troll and make racist the entire world wide web, by very dedicated actors no less.
They could have just sat there and slurped up enormous profits from the bubble as all the people who can’t find a use for their “AI” systems buy nvidia hardware, but no. They had to get high from their own supply. I can’t see this boding well for them.
- Nvidia is currently lighting cigars off $100 bills, but yeah
- They had to get high from their own supply. I can’t see this boding well for them.
  We all know how this goes: you gotta make the money from GPUs first. Then when you get the money, you get to drain the power grids. Then when you get the power, then you get the women with incorrect appendages.
  Of course, after all that, you die in a hail of bullets and land in the shadow of a monument to your own hubris.
Hope the AI has to watch ads mid-meal.
