Is this why /v/ is getting spammed with AI threads?
>>748850238I would always notice the same thing on /co/ too>AI fuckup happens>Immediately wave of spam threads
>>748850238It's just natual discussion of the new big thing. Sorry you're retarded.
>>748850238I keep forgetting this place is /b/ 2.0
my bet is all the AI-DS pc ports are all by the same person who is now trying to get people to sign up for his cloud service to play them to harvest their data
Amazon should have just closed because it lost money continuously in the beginning
>>748851130this but unironically
its every fucking site right now, claude opus hit the autist community like crack in the 80s
>>748850238>>748850656why is 4chan considered so important for advertising when the site blatantly has less organic traffic than ever
>>748851417I think it's because of it's status as an edgelord social signal. It is like trying to make sure that you have a very "cool" persona, one that is edgy and has bad boy energy to normalfags.
>>748851417It's possible some boomers in advertising heard about how this site was a few years back and havent caught up to how dead it is now which creates the atmosphere where most the posters are obvious shills.
>>748851417this shithole lives in da joos head rent free that's why they think this place is still the root of all things on the internet even after they intentionally inverted it
>>748851558>>748851609One thing that I forgot to mention is that advertisers aren't actually trying to sway actual /v/ posters, but they ARE trying to sway posters like Captive Dreamer and Rock Solid who are basically /v/ reposters
>>748851417It isn't important but that's utterly irrelevant. Advertising isn't about carefully selecting only the most premium places to run campaigns, it's about mass saturation to ensure that everyone everywhere hears about the product or service. The businesses that run astroturf campaigns here don't exclusively operate on 4chan but merely include it as part of the package of sites they advertise on.
>>748850238is /v/ pro-ai or anti-ai?
>>748851417humiliation ritual, 4chimpo managed to beat them a couple of times despite the odds and now they have an eternal grudge against it
it's crazy technology, it's natural to be amazed at what it can dothe huggingface report is some /x/ tier stuff
>>748851417>why is 4chan considered so importantIt's not.
>>748851417It's a schizoid tirade that's been going on for years, a quick glance at 4stats would immediately tell you that no sane or insane advertiser would ever consider this place for a marketing campaign. It just makes more sense to shill your project on X, where it's more likely to reach all kinds of audiences, including the 4chan one. The average age on this board is 35 and for some reason the belief that 4chan is the most popular underground forum is still going strong with them.
>>748851417We're more powerful than we realize.The 'no raiding' rule is still enforced for a reason.Party /v/an events single handedly bring back dead games for weeks sometimes.
It's possible. Whenever a lot of money is invested in something, damage control efforts appear. In the past, this was done through articles in friendly newspapers. Today, it's done by trying to sway opinions online (often with fake opinions, bots, etc.).Notice that when /v/ discovered Sweety Baby, there was a severe damage control effort, including from the moderators here (although the moderators might have had other aims). The point is that "DEI" initiatives generate a billion-dollar industry invented out of thin air, where the king's cronies sell useless services, but that people need because the king forces everyone to use them. That's why the "chuds" became the target of the entire media, NGOs, and even the fucking U.S. intelligence, when some Anons started making fun of people who openly said they wanted to "destroy the video game industry".
>>748851417No one, including the tranny or shitskin staff wants this place to be good for discussion.
>>748852616>The 'no raiding' rule is still enforced for a reason.The reason this rule and GR15 are still enforced is because the website has been on autopilot for years. Since there’s no owner or leader figure in the traditional sense, it’s basically a team of old moot era mods who just handle their daily routine under Hiro. Hence the lack of security updates or anything meaningful happening on the website.
>>748851417I think they (the companies) turf elsewhere, reddit etc, then the useful idiots start spamming us because thats mostly all this place is now. Just retards trying to stir shit with crap they read on twitter.
>>748851417As one of the few mainstream places where people can say what they really think, /v/ still wields significant influence in video game popular culture.
>>748851417Algorithm manipulation, also known as search engine optimization, and pooinloo keyboard slaves are practically free from a marketing point of view. Plus they have zero moral integrity so they'll spam whatever you tell them to.
>>748851417Bots love advertising to bots as bots are the only ones that respond to bot ads
>>748850238Is this that Zitron guy? He's a hack and a fraud you shouldn't listen to him.
>>748852952The board merge april fools really made this place come alive, there's a lot of spirit and culture still left beneath the rotting putrid mass of sewage that gets dumped here daily.Mods sadly don't engage or communicate anymore to set an example on how to conduct yourself so moderation feels more like a game of Russian roulette than anything else.
>>748851794>he actually belives that twitards aren't the ones that posts the shit they screencap for elon buxlollolmayo even
>>748851417Because every other redditor/youtuber/streamer etc. loves to repost some "cool" or "funny" shit that they've found on spooky scary 4chan. So it's easier to spam here and then have the retarded normalfag audience re-post it all over the internet, rather than pay online shills huge money and risk contract leaks.

>>748850238probably, they also say the same exact shit when they get challenged on anything and fall back to saying luddite or tranny. it's all retarded.
>>748853270the candy april fools was still the height of /v i'm afraid to sayit's nice to know, just below the surface, there's thousands of faggots in every thread just waiting for any excuse to crossdress, erp and jerk off together
>>748853270>The board merge april fools really made this place come alive, there's a lot of spirit and culture still left beneath the rotting putrid mass of sewage that gets dumped here daily.That was 9 years ago, the fact that they're allowed to do something creative on april fools changes nothing. In fact, the state of the last few april fools' days suggests they've grown tired of the website, if anything.
>>748852031>it's about mass saturationThis. If you can't sell shit on sex appeal, awareness/saturation is the next best option. It helps you associate everyday commodities like toothpaste with specific brands so you're more likely to choose that next time you need more.
>>748853583/v/ - Video Games
>>748851417It's not. Some anons think it is because of latent schizophrenic tendencies or memories of years past.
>>748853610>That was 9 years agowe had one last year, eventually the whole site turned into one giant superboard
>>748852604>The average ageitcametomeinadream.jpgIf you actually believe a shitty strawpoll is even remotely close to being accurate then you're either too retarded to live or have ulterior motives.
>>748853270>The board merge april fools really made this place come alive, there's a lot of spirit and culture still left beneath the rotting putrid mass of sewage that gets dumped here daily.Those are always the most fun, I remember when they mixed /mlp/ and /pol/ the one year and both ended up getting along horrifically well.

>>748853908What strawpoll? We had a birthday thread this morning where a lot of fags shared their age and their wimpy stories about how 4chan changed their lives in 2009/2011 or whatever
>>748851417I think its a sign of how desperate the AI sphere really is. Not one single AI company is profitable. Not OpenAI, not Anthropic, none of them. And the investors are starting to take note. They've been bankrolling the AI boom for 5 years without a single return on their investment. The only company to come out ahead in this whole AI boom is NVIDIA, and thats because they're overselling their shit to everyone. AI has burnt through public good will entirely. Nobody likes data centers, everyone hates the RAM shortage, and most of the content AI shits out is immediately labeled slop.TL;DRBubble pop soon
>>748851417it might be hard to believe with all the twitter screencaps but political meme culture as we know it flows downwards from 4chan. the big meme campaign that got trump into office started on 4chan and was spread onto the rest of the mainstream internet from there, same with the red pill, same with qanon, same with anti vax, same with incel terminology. all the most deranged people that are the most likely to spread memes to other sites and recruit people into an ideology tend to hang out on 4chan because of its reputation, they see it as this special place where hidden truths can be spoken even when its actually bullshit and thats why someone would want to meme ai into being acceptable on 4chan first.
>>748854036That's even less accurate than a strawpoll. You are actually too retarded to live.
>>748854175Happy 2022 to you too my fellow kekbro
>>748854175Whatever you're talking about is so over. Literally all /pol/ does now is shill China, Russia and Iran.>god I am so fucking TRAD AND BASED that I want nothing except world domination by shitskin theocrats and communistsI clocked out at about the point where you couldn't even insult Muslims anymore without getting called a Jew, gave me a real fear that I was talking to unironic Muslims
>>748854241So what metric do you want to use then? That they're 18-20somethings lurking on this board? I mean, the captcha is so shitty that it's a pain in the ass to have any discussion here.Just from a quick glimpse at the first 10 threads, you can clearly tell that the forum has become a nursing home for the elderly. All the arguments in flame threads are dated by at least 2-3 years, all the slang is incredibly fucking outdated, and all the takes are absolutely retarded. There's no way a young person would come up with any of that unless he's larping as a 4chan oldfag or something.
>>748854457>what metricNone at all, because no matter what number you choose it will be pulled out of your ass.>forumGo back or lurk more. You are not welcome here. Didn't bother reading the rest.
because of the ai mod explosion, duh
>>748854390/pol is 90% russian bio-bots (now real bots) muddying the waters and has been for 18 years that's why i laugh at any unironic polfagthe few humans on there are all 70iq retards that think they're the only intelligencia on the boardyou're one of these retardsonly board with lower iq is pw
>>748854818Struck a nerve, huh? It's fine, we're all aging in one way or another. At least you've got a cool place to chat with your fellow 30somethings. That's pretty neat. Consider moving to Facebook groups soon.
>>748854390Maybe. I perked up at all the pilling and looksmaxxing terminology getting into the mainstream lately but those were brought in by grifters who picked it up on some specific incel forum and the creators of that forum might have gotten their ideology from 4chan or one of its offshoots first, so in terms of cultural influence the site is really just running on fumes and the most it can muster is a game of telephone to worm its way into normal culture
>>748854867The Russians ruining the place after shooting their own dicks off in Ukraine does not mean that anyone who ever scoffed at your incredibly gay and lame shit is secretly Russian, sorry Lilith.
>NOOOOO YOU CANT TALK ABOUT THE FUTURE OF VIDEO GAME DEVELOPMENT why are luddites like this?
dalit
>>748855110i know you're an election tourist polfag, but the board was literally deleted 17 years ago because it was all just russians paid to post random bullshit, it only came back because polfags started leaking all over the site
>>748850238
>>748855131Luddites back then were in the right and the future of video games will just be aaa studios but now with ai tools because nobody will play 10000 derivative indie games that are already in an oversaturated market
>>748853569Kys people like you are part of the problem
>>748852141AI has great output, but sort of defeats the purpose of art and creation altogetherGood for porn, but can't produce meaningful art on the level of idk John William Waterhouse
>>748854390That shithole should have been deleted and all political discussion given a global ban unless its pertaining to unchangeable, historical events before the 19th century.
>>748855309>nobody will play 10000 derivative indie games that are already in an oversaturated marketIt was already oversaturated before AI so that means no one was playing games for a decade
>>748855407Good goy epstein loves this
>>7488514174chan shapes the rest of the internets which shapes the youth and culture. Gamergate, incel, pepe, foids, Trump, alt-right, indian hate, kike hate, slop, zoomer,... Everything starts here before breaking containment.
>>748854390It still has influence all things considered such as everyone using the term slop and calls people goy. Even shartyfags have begin influencing the mainstream
>>748855768>4chan shapes the rest of the internetsBetween 2005-2008, sure. I was eating a 30 day vacation when goobergate happened, and I literally did not recognize /v/. None of that shit was organic to /v/ because /v/ would have shit their pants laughing at anyone seriously using phrases like "Journalistic integrity" when talking about dogshit clickbait out of touch 9/10: ITS OKAY! review writers. Jesus christ tell me you came here after 2016 without saying you were an election tourist. Not to mention the 4chan culture was "4tehlulz." And this causefagging and srs bsns being taken seriously was the death of the soul of this site.
>>748856287Did epstein tell you that?
>>748851417The weird part is that by all accounts the 10-day hack should’ve decimated the idea that 4chan has any cultural influence left but you still have lone wolf schizos who still think they can harness “””””meme magic””””” to bend the world to their will>mfw the “nortubel” guy has been at this for years
my favorite part was finding out that big ep gaped mootykins’ chumhole
