"This will be unlocked shortly. Per my earlier post, drastic & immediate action was necessary due to EXTREME levels of data scraping.
Almost every company doing AI, from startups to some of the biggest corporations on Earth, was scraping vast amounts of data.
It is rather galling to have to bring large numbers of servers online on an emergency basis just to facilitate some AI startup’s outrageous valuation."
Elon has a good point there. Much of the current AI hotness is predicated on stealing peoples content and exploiting the infrastructure that other people have built. I don’t think it’s acceptable.
The licenses, compensation models, law, technical solutions, attribution, security and privacy all need time to catch up. Regulation has a role to play as its a bit of a free for all right now.
The irony of Elon mentioning “outrageous valuations” though!
This isn’t going to make them stop either. Musk is about to see a spike in account creations using the method of lowest resistance. I expect “sign in with apple” will disappear as an option soon, given its requirement of supporting “hide my email” that makes it trivial to create multiple twitter profiles from one apple ID.
Lmfao, it’s so cool how my boss thinks Elon is “brilliant.”
According to ~half the country, Trump is the greatest businessman we’ve ever seen and Elon is the genius we have been waiting for. Just complete dissasociation from reality and we all have to live together and vote together and work together. It’s really great here.
In all seriousness, I’m in charge of district social media for Senator Atkins. I spend a lot of time on twitter looking for local things to retweet/highlight, searching for relevant accounts to tag in pictures and tweets, and just generally keeping an eye on local happenings/sentiment on twitter.
