remember kids, everything you post on the internet stays forever*

*unless it cannot be monetized anymore

[-] RidcullyTheBrown@lemmy.world 56 points 5 months ago

Everything you post has potential to remain forever even if it's not monetized directly. Cautioning people about it makes sense now and has always made sense.

I know a lot of people still have terrible fanfiction they wrote as teens on the internet somewhere, so the warning is very appropriate.

Even the Wayback Machine has limits to what is available.

Oh, that stuff is out there somewhere... in a database

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Or on a server hanging out in a landfill.

Don't worry, it might still bubble up to the surface in the hallucinations of an AI.

You can't train an AI on data that's no longer in existence

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 10 points 5 months ago

But a decade from now, there will be AI trained on data that will no longer exist. And many websites that GPT trained on probably don't exist anymore.

Really? Because I don't think my dick pic can be monetized

[-] empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 5 months ago

Sure it can. People will pay to not see it.

Maybe start a charity and raise money that way?
