made an edit, I’m properly taking the L for this, imy only defense is that it’s a strange piece of satire. Still 100% my fault though, will probably delete the post lol.

again, I don’t mind calling it satire that wasn’t my point. It’s just very strange, for something that actually provides code that break AGPL and “ironically” takes your money for it. It’s very strange. I saw the satirical elements aswell but i thought it to be some weird marketing ploy as stated in previous comments. That’s why I edited my og post and stated that it’s too good because it might as well be real in a literal and metaphorical sense.

I made an edit on this matter but yes it is indeed satire, apologies, however it’s still pretty strange how they did this…i agree with you though vibecoding and close sourcing your shit is just so useless. I can’t believe I fell for it but I’m relieved I’m not the only one, and again, despite what you said, how is this still technically satire if it works as intended? No matter how bad it is, the joke doesn’t land once you involve money and an actual product.

it’s. not. satire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cahSKUYjuTE if it’s satire once again, when does the joke end? If it actually does what it does. Maybe this is more of an ethics debate?

I am obviously not against reverse engineering, i don’t think you get the point I’m trying to make. It’s the intent, and just the complete disregard for free software under the guise of “satire”, which has been a staple in AI-centered circles(ooooo look we’re the villains and there’s nothing you plebians can do about it).

Technology is neutral, AI is neutral, the people who run it and build businesses around it to fuck people in the ass, however, are not.

tl;dr: edgelord company being a dumbass today, might lead to even more dystopian corporations later(keyword MIGHT)

I don’t disagree with you and that’s most likely what’s going to happen, however it’s more so the direction in which this is going which haunts the hell out of me. I’m not just “AI bashing” it’s just dystopian. Now we could play this off as just an edgelord CEO if, you know…there wasn’t any financial backing to this and genuine interest.

Would you like me to provide sources with MLA Citation?

Shut up. This isn’t a college paper, it’s a lemmy post.

Is that your counter argument? Are you dense? A youtube link doesn’t inherently remove the evidence that’s present: it processes payments and generates code and as far as I can tell, does what it says it does. Now we can discuss how efficient it is or not, if it actually does exactly, to the letter, as advertised. My point remains the same, if this is the direction these AI bros wanna go in, they should be chased out of tech centered communities. Quite simple really.

It’s not https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cahSKUYjuTE

it is very much a real service, unfortunately, as ridiculous as all of this sounds it seems to be a real marketing ploy. It’s not satire. It’s meant to either confuse people or? I don’t even know what’s the point

I guess it’s some sort of “self aware but seriously we’re actually like this” satire.

Yes, I love netslop

Of course we can get rid of video entertainement, it’s more so a question of principle and shows the impeding failure of our own economic system.

The product becomes abstract, and we’re going to be served more ads on other abstract products which will just continue the cycle.

It’s depressing.

this is actually fucking terrifying
