Is this the laziest thread on /pol/ right now?
>>541012028Based Frank Landymore Club Hopper article
>>541012028Are my eyes deceiving me or is Prince going by Frank Landymore now while posing as some jew publisher? I've had so many questions about his "death".
>OH NO. AMAZON BOUGHT 1000 BOOKS AND THEN RIPPED OFF THEIR SPINES TO SCAN THEM FASTER!!!!!I'm sorry, I thought you could do whatever you want to do with a book once you buy it.
Just keep recycling your articles Frank youre bound to hit paydirt
The most interesting thing about AI is that if you start training it with AI-generated content, even if it seems completely rational and intelligible, things quickly start to go awry, and within a few "generations", the AI begins to produce meaningless garbage or low-quality text.If this happens with the human brain as well, it might explain why, after civilizations reach a certain peak, their artistic output seems to start to decline. Artists end up merely creating variations on works by other artists, with no further connection to real-world sources of inspiration.
>>541012086No
This nigga looks like a FTM Jenna Ortega
>>541012348They put an air tag in a book and tracked it down to an Amazon warehouse in Las Vegas
>>541013167Do they at least keep a digital copy of the book?
Does it “destroy” books the same way that it “destroys” water?
>>541013293Its all fake outrage, I have yet to see an example of one of these "rare" books, google has been digitizing books for 20 years
Which do you prefer, AI trained on Reddit or trained on books? Fuck AI is not an answer.
>>541013389When you buy a book, and make a copy of it, you now have two copies which infringes on copyright law. They destroy the original copy so they are legally in the clear.
>>541012028AI is such a scam. So what does it all boil down to? Hoarding all the worlds data in massive data centers so AI can simply brute force either an image or text by clumsily sifting through a near infinite data set, using intense processing power to create some sort of averaged image or keyword pile of text and draining entire rivers for coolant? While still delivering an in accurate and not fully coherent answer or image. What a scam, this is not the future and this is not an impressive technology.

>>541012167>>541012182Frank Landymore is a known sex pest
>>541013573I think the only "real" use is in programming, IT applications, and so on. Corporations currently view AI as a way to make their employees more efficient and faster, and they're even requiring them to use a certain number of tokens every week to prove that they're doing their best to use AI as a work optimizer.Apparently, AIs like "Codex" or "Claude" are quite capable in programming and can be a huge help in practically every day-to-day situation for people in this field. According to the programmers I spoke with, these tools are useful and allow them to be more productive.
>>541012028Oh, noes, not the el-bookerinos! Somebody think of all the poor, rare books written in languages nobody will understand in 500 to 1000 years, on paper that will not survive 100 to 300 years, being read by the light of LED bulbs that won't have electricity to power them in 100 - 200 years! Dear god, what will we do?!
>>541012182*Ladymore
>>541013389a huge guillotine slices the spine off retard
>>541013923>LED bulbs that won't have electricity to power them in 100 - 200 yearsWhy?
>>541014058White people extinction.
>>541012028It s the law. They have to destoy them if they scan them.
>>541013478Fuck Reddit.
>>541013167>We tracked a stack of papyrus writings. They ended at a monastery and are being transcribed into books.>Evil monks are copying and destroying papyrus.
>>541013478It's basically the same thing since Redditors read books
>>541013478Fuck AI and fuck you.But if I had to pick then I'd choose the former because AI taught on reddit garbage is exactly what AIfags deserve.
>>541012028If they're so rare why are they able to buy them in bulk from random book dealers?
>>541012028If the books are so rare and important. Why aren't they in a private collection or in some kind of book museum?Oh yeah, it's because nobody gave a shit before AI started destroying them
anyone been noticing how any thread with even the mildest scrutiny, criticism, or even mere questions about>AI>DCs>OpenAI / Altman, Anthropic / Amodei etcinstantly gets spammed with aggressive bots that either try to derail or attack the OPs and frequently with complete non sequiturs
>>541012028Fuck reading and fuck books
>>541015476The board is always committed to the most contrarian takes possible, we don't need bots we'll support AI simply because it's the less popular position
>>541015576word
>>541015437you can't even read favela nigger
OH MY GOD THEY'RE STRIPPING THE SPINES OFF OF MADAME COUDARIE'S GELATIN PIE COOKBOOK
>>541012028$20 you run the Protocols through AI and it goes sentient.
>>541013556ctrl + c ctrl + v ctrl + cctrl + v ctrl + cctrl + v your logic is invalid
>>541012028They genuinely want to monopolize access to knowledge. They are far from achieving it ofc but thats what they begun to do.
>>541012028Did they ever tell us what these rare books were? Or just "rare" books?
Its has began. I hate living in this era.
>>541012278The same people who made hours of propaganda over nazis burning books are the same ones going silent over big tech destroying books whose contents are unkown and its unkown if we still have digital available to the public.Big tech is destroying cultural heritage for short term profits, on the other hand its waste, at this point in time you dont increase intelligence by throwing more text into a training algorithm.
>>541013389the book is actually destroyed yes, they claim is for copyright, no joke, ancient rare books who've past their copyright by centuries, if not more, are destroyed because "scanning" makes it tantamount to stealing, and not because they want to have exclusive access to the information..
>>541015795At least chinks and jeets won't take my country you weak faggot lmao
>>541016215no, the only benefit to destroying them, is exclusive access to the information, nothing else makes sense. You don't need to destroy them if its training data, you can simply hang onto the books, they possess a monetary value of untold sums, so it is especially absurd from profit motive. This is demonic, and simply destruction to exclusively hoard all the information.
>>541016431It's because of a legal ruling against Google Books. They're only allowed to scan books if they destroy the original, otherwise it's illegal duplication.
>>541016218>ancient rare books who've past their copyright by centuriesCan you name one of these books?Is any of this actually happening?
>>541012028Just because a book is rare doesnt mean its valuable. Also when's the last time any of you niggers actually read a book you weren't forced to read?
>>541017248Just because it isn't valuable doesn't mean it's okay to destroy it either
>>541017355Why not? Worth is determined by value. Are you saying some pedos fan fiction of a pepper ann and doug gangbang is worth saving because only one copy was ever binded?
>>541017443jewish mindset
>>541017541The only book you own bruce is two cans of vb sandwiching a kangaroo cock
>>541017248There's alot to unpack here, and pearls and swine and shit
>>541012028jews are going to turn AI into their ultimate golem overlord, that's all that will happen with AI, we can't have it until jews are banished back into the sewers or fully exterminated, simple fact.
>>541017247thats the premise of these articles.>>541013167>>541017180you're wrong.
>>541017443Not a Wilde reader then?
>>541017443Not to mention that it is almost certainly already scanned and on the clear net somewhere. This is literally just in case they happen upon >>541015803 or something of the sort that hasn't been scanned.
>>541012167the most trusted name in news
>>541017694AGI will dethrone jewish power for christ, unironically
>>541012028This young man looks very intelligent.
>>541018704Don't judge a book by its cover
>>541012278They are changing records and getting rid of all based and redpilled books
>>541012278not if you have enough money to buy all the books so other people can't, obviously that would need to be heavily curbed in a non-clown world.
>>541012028Oh no...books?Who cares?
>>541012028I've never seen such a young journalist!
>>541019973Looks like a kid in my neighborhood who is always outside playing soccer
>>541012086yes and the gayest too
