Meta has been granted a patent outlining an AI system capable of simulating a user’s activity on social media to post after their death.
Some fucked up shit.
What a great use of resources. Also, it seems like it borders on identity theft.
Let those not accounts sign up for credit cards, see how fast they get shut down
the future is when you can’t buy RAM because your dead cousin is using it to spam your feed with their antivaxx ideas.
This is dumb and fucked up, but I also look forward to the AI analog for @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world constantly following up its own posts with apologies and banning itself.
If you ban yourself too often you’ll go blind which is why I never have.
“Dad, I’m over here”
Why
Didn’t think I’d cross digital necromancy off my bingo card!
They’d probably opt you into it by default without telling anyone…
Imagine how many AI-written patents are being submitted everyday.
Ant they just approve whatever comes in it seems and hope the courts will sort out any conflicts.
Bye bye patent system.
Does /dev/null qualify as prior art?
or /dev/urandom?
Black mirror had a episode about this years ago. It’s crazy no one patented this before.
Would the black mirror episode not count as prior art and therefore invalidate the patent?
*.avif is definitely a man made horror beyond my comprehension.
Can’t wait for Zuckerberg to start using it.
What the fuck
Prime time to remind that Meta probably cranks out five hundred patents every day in case they ever have to engage in patent warfare against competitors. For the simple reason that the competitors are doing the same thing.
The patents cover every little thing under the sun, but oddly I don’t see each of those patents discussed online.
Found the appropriate response.
Literally a black mirror episode.
