The obvious end goal of the push for LLMs. Centralized control over information that can be used to bend public opinion and trends.
the closed-source version of the internet.
The biggest end goal is scanning everyone’s data that we will only be able to store in the cloud because they bought all the storage and memory. This is useful far beyond advertising.
But yes, skewing public opinion is part 2 of that.
The spy agencies finally got their mind control except this is America so it’s also privatized.
Running everything said or done, online or off, all connected to people and their face and ID, through AI threat detection, to make secret social scores to be used against us I would add. Age checks are to further that purpose, as are the masterbaitorbases of the UK and shitholy red states in the US.
They will then allow the AI to decide on deploying assassin drones on unfavorable people and to run propaganda.
Then blame the droned undesirables’ death on their opponents and scapegoats and drone them. Then steal their assets after, that goes without saying.
Basically automated culling of undesirable people for the most arbitary things, fake law and order appearance, but no free elections, no chance of rebellion or improvements, everyone forced to act happy and suffer whatever is inflicted on them, as our overlords attempt to replace us altogether.
it’s always about power

The article is about using external tools in addition to an LLM. This has nothing to do with “centralized information” and is something that search engines have been doing for years.
Always has been. Not so different from giant physical billboards everywhere in the early 20th century

I can see how you may find this news upsetting, I suggest you talk to your doctor about Lexapro to help you through these times.
Would you like to know more about how Lexapro is already being shipped to your home?
It’s anyone surprised by this?
You are totally right, nobody is surprised about this. But everybody loves a Snickers, because You’re Not You When You’re Hungry.
Please ask if you want to know more about our daily sponsors.
The speedrunning of enshittification.
But also yeah propaganda was always the goal.
And yes, marketing is a form of propaganda.
We need an amplified version of the surprised Pikachu meme for some of these AI news. Literally everyone saw it coming. Especially AI bros who lied through their teeth when they claimed it wouldn‘t.
TIL AI companies have sponsored answers.
How can I abuse this?
Study finds what sponsored content means
Well no fucking shit Sherlock, they are peddling it like a drug “reality is harsh here’s something to help you escape from it” and gullible people are going in head first.
It’s like when the internet first came about for the general public, and we had to constantly remind people, “Don’t believe everything you read. Nobody has to tell the truth.” I’m still unsure if we learned that lesson, but unlike the internet, AI is additionally and already largely hated by a majority of people.
As designed.
I’m so glad I was sitting down when I read this.
I’m very surprised.
This is why open source AI is necessary!
We need an open source search engine as much as anything right now.
Federated DMOZ or bust
That sounds like a great idea, I didn’t even know about this until I looked it up just now, Directory Mozilla, that somehow got bought up by aol which got bought by yahoo which killed it.
And Claude too. As I did find out.
AI - It’s only a google search (manipulation) engine on steroids.
Not at all for the good of humanity.
Who saw that coming?
