    Yeah my Ublock Origin block filter is nearly 2000 lines, almost all of it blocking shit like this. If it ever gets nuked on Firefox then I’m going full Kaczynski.

    Great make every effort to suck the soul out of internet, of which there is already very little remaining. Then you can jack off to all the money you made while watching the internet that is %100 bots and racists

    I kind of like the idea of a system allowing me to automatically remove clickbait and sensationalism from headlines and replace it with a good summary. But I really hate how Google is pushing that without customization, without consent and in such a crappy state.

      Same. I don’t mind it if it was done by a group of writers who can finetune it or people who just hate that shit. But but Google’s job is to get more clicks and get more eyeballs. So I don’t trust them to game their own systems.

    If hypothetically a false headline on a reputable site led to an incident involving injury or death, could Google be found liable in anyway?

    So what’s happening here is Google is feeding headlines into a model with the instructions to generate a title of exactly 4 words.

    Every example is 4 words.

    Why they think 4 words is enough to communicate meaningfully, I do not know. The other thing is whether novel they’re shoving into their products for free is awful, hence the making things up and not knowing in the context of a video game exploit is not the same as the general use of the word.

    didn’t this happen already? the thing is generating AI responses instead of showing me the results first and then I’m not clicking on it because I’m a person

    it’s also de-listing a ton of websites and subpages of websites and continuing to scrape them with Gemini anyway

      Apple had to turn it off for their sunmary mode after backlash, even though the option always had the “these summaries are generated by AI and can be inaccurate” warnings placed prominently.

      Google doing this shit without warning or notice will get them in shit water. News portals and reporters are generally not too fond of their articles being completely misrepresented.

        it’s not just a matter of misrepresentation. it’s directing traffic away from the websites which are creating the content, maybe depriving them of every means that they have of monetizing it

          Well, the loss of traffic is a knock-on effect of the misrepresentation. So is the fact that every other portal will try to sling shit at the ones affected by it.

    i thought they were already doing that? idk i assume a lot of the news that gets read is AI generated. if you have a good prompter you can easy crank out a hundred thousand years worth of fake headlines.
