Strong “Simone” vibes
classic CNN, faking NEWS articles or segments.
Because they’re not real journalists
Ya know that scens from The Thing where Macready pours his scotch into the chess computer, I want to do that to AI data center server racks. Sadly I am not nearly as handsome as a young or even current Kurt Russell.
“On camera”?
Wouldn’t that just be a camera pointed at a processor in a data centre somewhere?
The CNN anchors are training their replacements
ellison eventually wants cnn, so this is the beginning, plus zaslav is a total pushover for the right wing owners.
This is the problem with AI that is so marketable, valuable and potentially unstoppable: people thinking and behaving like it is human. They are trying to take the human out of the equation for everything. When there are so few many human roles left there will no longer be empathy, compassion or reasoning from entertainers, customer service, management or eventually potentially law.
I think youre overestimating the tech here
They are not overestimating the response though.
I think I’m an optimist because I think that eventually the various companies are going to have to start turning a profit, and I just don’t see it happening. When the investment money runs out there’s going to be a huge crash. Frivolous pointless stuff like this will drop by the wayside.
What will be left is the useful applications of AI like scientific research and the automation of simple, but non-deterministic tasks that couldn’t previously be automated via a script, such as organising logistical supply chains. But AI isn’t going to replace human labour until they move away from LLM chat bots, and even then it’s just a possibility not an inevitability.
Unfortunetly, true.
This when society should drop cnn as a legitimate source of worthy news.
That happened when it got bought by a Republican shitbag.
I stopped a while back, but this really should be enough for even the least serious viewers
They are destroying any confidence left in the truth of digital records.
Sweet, i will add this to my Roomba’s playlist.

Donald Trump was right about cnn he just didn’t know why
Right about CNN? Well we don’t know for sure if they would’ve done this before his buddies bought it. But who knows. Even without this bullshit, it’s worth boycotting CNN now. They bought Warner Bros knowing full well it would make for a great extension to their propaganda machine.
What saddens me is Warner Bros also owns HBO, which makes Last Week Tonight. I doubt John Oliver would cave in, but they can just cancel his show.
I absolutely know that for sure. No doubt my mind whatsoever. This is a very CNN thing to do.
I only want to see some geriatric from CNN interview Neuro-sama.
CNN is a media company that has a lot to gain if it can get its audience to accept AI “personalities”.
also to capture another potential republican voting audience.
They’re also, generally, in service of the status quo.
It’s literally the perfect business model, like the one refined by ad-based mobile game companies, but even easier.
Agents troll for the news. Agents right up the news. It’s fed to a video agent that reads the news. No need for human intervention. No need for any pesky slowdowns. Everything is ready in moments from the moment it happens.
Unfortunately, we’re going to lose integrity, accuracy, and virtually everything else that we need in the news source.
We already don’t have integrity and accuracy from most news sources.
Okay, now broaden your conclusions. Imagine the level of distrust is even earned because we don’t know what to fucking think. Because everywhere we look, there’s a different message.
I get this mark, but I think that you’re underestimating the damage that we’re going to be seeing in the very near term.
Good point. With AI news we’ll be able to trust it more because the message will be consistent across multiple sources and delivered reliably, compellingly, with conviction, and targeted to the current desires, fears and prejudices of the viewer. All of this will help to maintain a sense of trust, and shape your worldview.
Human beings are, for the most part, not mentally equipped to deal with this. We already see a significant part of the population lost in constructed realities. That’s the tip of the iceberg.
It’s going to be unwatchable but they will still shove it in our face until they find out they can’t really make that much money from it. But they won’t hire the real people back again because then they’d have to admit they were wrong so they will just not have serious news anymore and even more people will get informed from podcasts and youtubers and other alternative media. These people in the Entertainment Business would rather destroy a business than pay people.

Capitalism.
Friend of mine told me his boss said he’d rather burn the place to the ground than let the workers unionize.
So far as I know, that boss never suffered any personal violence, despite treating everyone like shit.
Give him time. It sounds like he’s working on the discrepancy right now.
Sounds like Americans will get the news they deserve
I mean literally everyone will. All media will become a cesspool of magnificently curated garbage. That’s going to transcend national boundaries.
Honestly, I think you’d be right at home here. You’re sort of one of us now.
What you’re saying is almost verbatim Trump’s fans claiming that they voted for him and will endure whatever pain he dishes out just to own the libs.
I’d be okay with Max Headroom, but he told it like it is. Might be too far for them.
