“This whole saga makes me genuinely embarrassed to follow this stuff. I just want a sub that has an informed opinion on AI, this is worse than crypto bro bullshit.”
“Every hype-man who posts vague tweets and hype posts should be ridiculed. Every clown who posts screenshots of said tweets on this sub should be ridiculed.”
““AGI is coming out next year” - this sub for the last 4 years”
some self aware highlights.
strawberry man used the hype by pretending to be an insider and making claims that strawberry is coming very soon and will completely change everything
Lol people still fall for the “my dad works for nintendo” bit when no other independent source can verify the claim?

It is just as embarrassing as the people who buy into “insider political leaks.” Unnamed, unverifiable sources are almost always fabricated
Depends on the nature of political leaks. A lot are deliberately leaked to control the narrative. For example, leaks about Biden “being furious” with Netanyahu is just to appeal to west wing brained liberals. Or how “anonymous sources revealed” to MSM that “Ukrainians” were behind the Nordstream bombing. In the latter case, they admit it was sabotage, but want a different narrative around it.
Does anyone truly believe that Ukraine destroyed NS2 on their own? Biden told the whole world he was going to “bring and end to it” if Russia invaded Ukraine and that is exactly what he did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS4O8rGRLf8&t=90 “How will you stop NS2, it belongs to Germany?” “I promise you we WILL do it”
Not necessarily. Often it’s coming from a real source, it’s that if the source was known it’d be blatantly obvious the “leak” isn’t juicy truths TPTB are trying to keep from us but rather blatant propaganda from TPTB are pushing to manufacture consent.
I don’t follow. Half-truths are lies in my book so it sounds like we agree that those claims are largely fabrications aimed to stir up drama (increase engagement) or deceive us (manufacture consent)
Either way, it shouldn’t be legal for any journalist to try to pass off unverifiable gossip as legitimate News.
