Search for “Google Slides” & you may see that the first image they select for one of their flagship office softwares is... Someone’s SEO-cash-grab “custom product” spam. Plastic slippers with the Google slides icon on them? Google’s own intellectual property is being parasitized here. What chance do independent artists stand? Google doesn’t care, as long as they are paid by search spammers who, in turn, somehow think this will make money. #search #searchCrisis #AISlop #google #ai #sloppocalypse
I don't know if y'all can access this story, but @404mediaco has a piece that I helped with. It is:
"AI Comes for a Centuries-Old Craft" and the proliferation of #AIslop beginner books. Preying on beginners who don't know what's real or not is loathsome, and underway.
