That is only a negative if you believe that net intelligence is going down due to this level of increase of "easy of use" technology. I agree with you that it is bad for the avg person today, but for the smartest person, things are better.

Definitely believe we are reaching some sort of global maxima in terms of intelligence in our current structure of society

Meta famously used libgen to train, right? That is basically a source for all copyrighted textbooks and more.

I guess it depends.

They can be competent enough to cook meals in a controlled environment: (environment built for machines and specific dishes), without ever being able to replicate the same in a human restaurant.

There are a few companies that do robotic cooking, and it has its challenges due to the above reason. I am not aware of the cost problem though.

How cool would it be if this replaced someone at Subway though

I think it is more about going backwards. It is often difficult to remove laws than to add them. This is a similar situation.

In this situation, I agree that it is bad day for personal privacy/security

seems more like a novelty item

It looks clunkier, so it is more legit

I mean, what do you expect from AI generated responses LOL. It is literally from some BS article from some dude who has never been a successful Product Manager.

I think its a funny website to browse and say "haha", but nothing more.

Ah -- I missed that it was AI-generated! That being the case, you're not wrong.

You’re not at work, don’t be so agreeable! Tell them it’s a great article and the author would have time to write their own if they weren’t so busy having to explain things to those damned engineers.

Lol, literally calling an ad by meta not an ad. If they do it for Meta, the next logical step. This is from the same company that wanted to create official bots that would post, comment, react. Meta at this point is just throwing shit at the wall and hoping something sticks as a product. I am not afraid of my data being stolen, but it is a wake up call for what to expect.

I feel the very same from the OP reddit submission. OP used Meta AI, and then Meta AI used it for more Meta AI. I'm sorry but this is a far cry from "Instagram is using my face on ads targeted at me". The implications of this title, and the situation it describes differ greatly. For example, if the user used Meta AI, and then got an ad of themselves driving a car, drinking a coffee, wearing some clothing, and the ad would be about that product itself, then I would have not made the original comment at all.

You're fighting way harder on this than I would, but I do agree that the title had me imagining being served an ad where I'm using the product being sold to me. Ads already are trying to make you think you'd be happy or popular by using their product by showing you people acting like that. It kicks that up to another level to literally see yourself happy because you're using a product that someone wants to sell you.
