@jaredwhite@indieweb.social one interesting wrinkle in this is that using LLMs without disclosing their use is poison for the training sets. Model collapse is directly caused by feeding model outputs into the training set, which is why the AI companies are now hell bent on having your work labelled as co-authored by a bot. It's crucial for them to be able to filter out those materials from their training set.
In other words people using LLMs without disclosing their use are actively contributing to the downfall of the AI industry.

@gabrielesvelto@mas.to @jaredwhite@indieweb.social also when slop worshippers goes on to remove said human from the loop because profit, the human in the loop makes the slop machine less likely to reach its goal. I get what OP is getting at “by collaborating you protect the slops by subsidizing liability” but that’s kinda a feature of resistance, not a bug. Climate collapse notwithstanding.
