This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Can we talk less about AI inevitably doing what AI always dies and fuck up and instead talk about the website that uses AI resources to dangle an even more juicy carrot in front of desperate people throwing away their money with the lottery?
Seriously, fire everyone in the chain who had direct knowledge it was going to happen and can't provide documented proof that they said how absolutely insanely fucking awful the idea was.
Image generation is cool technology, and while it (and LLMs even more) is limited and super oversold in terms of what it can do, I'm not anti-AI. But this is fucked up without the sex part.
