"One slop please"

I really wish more people would get behind peertube. I also wish some awesome person/s with coding skills could create an app compatible with smartTV's (esp., android).

Good news! Framasoft, the Peertube devs, are working on a smart TV app

Don't need any coding skills for doing apps. You can do it with a single well constructed prompt (and 400 other prompts trying to fix the initial bugs and all the dozens other bugs introduced prompt after prompt)

And it won't scale at all!

Congratulations, you made more AI slop, and the problem is still unsolved 🤣

Current AI solves 0% of difficult programming problems, 0%, it's good at producing the lowest common denominator, protocols are sitting at 99th percentile here. You're not going to be developing anything remotely close to a new, scale able, secure, federated protocol with it.

Nevermind the interoperability, client libraries...etc Or the proofs and protocol documentation. Which exist before the actual code.

But then you just dump your black box of combined code, that you don't understand, back in to another prompt and accept all changes with no questions ask. Easy peasy.

Oh boy, a button that generates ai shorts. Combining my 2 least favorite things about YouTube.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Buttons and shorts? Yeah, I also like watching bottomless people sometimes.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

We are not the same, I usually choose to watch people with an excess amount of bottom.

Damn. I read the headline, and I almost thought it was a "Report AI Slop" button. What a feature that would be!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

That would be all of it.

Was still thinking that until I read this comment. Tiktok is unwatchable (I mean more than before even) because of this. Luckily longer videos are still hard to produce with AI

Hate slop, but I also approve of anything that makes it easier to wrest IPs away from Hollywood. Feeling conflicted and pessimistic.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Too bad this probably still won't drive people to other platforms.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 3 days ago

Being a monopoly does that, yeah.
