@mossman@social.vivaldi.net My biggest boon with this whole marketing thing about self-learning algorithms is not so much their (often lacking) usefulness. I do understand that there are some aspects like pattern recognition to process vast amounts of data which can be a big help in some fields like law, medicine, etc. The problem we all should have with this corporate-driven marketing slop is the huge amounts of energy it requires. Because nowadays more energy means more fossil emissions. And the last thing we need is even more fossil emissions just so that some corporations and the oligarch owners behind them can make even more money for features no one needs.
