Technology@lemmy.world•Google is cannibalizing the web to feed AIEnglish
5·13 days agoThey are literally walling off all this information that used to be easy to access and for the public. It’s our data that we the people decide to share with the world and these rent seeing corporations are hiding it away so they can start charging us “tokens” to access our own public information.

Technology@lemmy.world•Pizza Hut's AI system caused 'cascading' problems and $100M in damages, franchisee alleges in new suitEnglish
12·20 days agoYeah, Pizza Hut used to be the gold standard for Pizza. Sometimes we couldn’t afford it and we’d have to get another brand, but we’d pine for the pizza hut we wished we had.
I had friends whose parents would always order a Pizza Hut pizza every single Friday. Never missed a Friday.
It was so fun to go to the restaurant too. It smelled so friggin’ good in there and those pan pizzas we’re just absolutely perfect fresh served to your table. I think they used to put butter on the crust. It was all dark in there and they had those red candles; almost seemed like a sacred place. lol
Now they’re so terrible. All the chain Pizza places have weird cheese that tastes like shit and all the toppings seem like they’re just fake, like you’re eating plastic or something. Gross.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think every generation thinks their time growing up was the best?
0·1 month agoGrowing up, things were pretty shitty but you thought things were going to get better. You had hope. Then when it didn’t get better, that’s when you look back and you’re like, well, it was bad, but now it’s so much worse. So it was definitely the best compared to what came later.

1·1 month agoI see what you’re doing there, but the problem is that the government in general, and the IRS specifically, if a mistake is made, you’re paying it with interest.
What I’d like to see happen is the AI going rogue and wiping all the data, including all the backup files.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•At what point does a person become an "adult"?
0·2 months agoAccording to Ally Sheedy’s character in the Breakfast Club, it’s when your heart dies.
Breaking Points did a story on this and there’s a lot going on. There are more important issues, but I was stunned at Jared Kushner’s eyes in the video. He has the deadest eyes I’ve ever seen. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kjDXjcNU2rw&pp=ygUPYnJlYWtpbmcgcG9pbnRz
Basically those two found a profoundly beautiful island paradise and they’re going to develop it and kill it.
