Who the fuck censors Epstein? Pathetic

Was zum Fick, what platform did you swipe this from where you can't say "Epstein"?

[–] genfood@feddit.org 20 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

I guess they censor stuff in Advance to keep the algorithm going

[–] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

It does literally nothing. The free version of ChatGPT decoded this advanced encryption in seconds

And if anyone thinks social media networks aren’t doing this and more are for a rude awakening

[–] public_image_ltd@lemmy.world 24 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I deciphered it in milliseconds without having to paste it into a digital slave

[–] lime@feddit.nu 23 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

i think their point was that people do this stuff to hide it from algorithms so that it doesnt get removed by the platform, when algorithms can easily read the covered text anyway

[–] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

The point is that the companies use “digital slaves” to decode this preschool level “censoring” in milliseconds, so doing it does nothing of value

Their systems will now know that the user posted about Epstein, despite the red line over the name.

If they need to do a chatgpt scan of every single image that is uploaded, that's gonna cost a lot of time and money. They just to OCR and the OCR can't read that

[–] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The don’t “ChatGPT”, you can use local models and they cost next to nothing on Meta’s or Google’s scale. Both run their own servers for it.

[–] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

of course they don't use chatgpt and whatever they use isn't comparable to chatgpt cuz that would be unsustainable

[–] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

“Isn’t comparable”? For generic tasks that’s true.

Figuring out shittily censored words from pictures and subtitles? The custom models are even better

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 6 points 3 weeks ago

Whoever did this needs to be tarred and feathered for their preemptive grovelling.

Distraction, but from what.....

[–] zildjiandrummer1@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Musk had his one of his DOGE boys (Ethan Shaotran) and several others manipulate the vote tabulation code in swing states to hand Trump the election.

There are already several lawsuits in a few states to get recounts and full audits. I think Nevada, New York, maybe another, from SMART and ETA.

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Agree on the distraction cuz shits on fire yo.

Also not to be picky, got a source for these cases?

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Trump cancels NPR. Musk removes Trump from X. World power consumption drops to its lowest level due to AI meme reduction directly.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

he can start directing x to attack trump and the gop.

[–] jeena@piefed.jeena.net 11 points 3 weeks ago

I mean, Trump is right. And so is probably Musk.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Elon's response of "good luck getting to the ISS" was a pretty solid comeback to this.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 26 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Nationalizing the fuck out of SpaceX would be funny

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

nasa, science is already defunded, no use even if it gets nationalized.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

Not sure, there is some institutional knowledge, possibly patents, etc

[–] jonne 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Except Trump doesn't care about the ISS and would happily let it deorbit with everyone still on board.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 3 points 3 weeks ago

Ehhh, not really. Conservatives have an odd relationship to the space program.

They like the science things that give them flatscreen TVs, smartphones, and red dot sights on guns. They don't like science things that tell them Noah's flood never happened and global warming is real. The science they really, really like is the stuff they can use to beat other nations over the head and say America! Fuck Yeah!

NASA does something that clearly shows America! Fuck Yeah! to the whole world. They need to stamp out the parts of NASA that say inconvenient things about global warming, but you can get humans to the ISS and robots to Mars without any of that.

Ditching SpaceX contracts would leave the US without a manned space program. We'd have to go back to relying on Russia, and that's not going to happen. SLS is an embarrassing budget buster. ULA is a joke. Bezos doesn't have a rocket that can get people to the ISS (he might get around to it, someday). There's a few up and comers out there in the rocket industry, but nobody is ready yet. Falcon 9 is it.

Elon knows he's safe on this one.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't think that's true actually, it's a huge prestige project for the US, and it would be very embarrassing to lose it.

[–] jonne 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

What Trump wants and what 'the US' wants are very different things.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Even Trump knows that relying on the Russians to get to the ISS would be a bad look for America.

[–] jonne 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Again, after 5 years of this guy, why would you think he cares about America or Americans?

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 0 points 3 weeks ago

His actions recently have shown he very much cares about public opinion, it's why he's been flip flopping on tariffs so much.

[–] sirico@feddit.uk 4 points 3 weeks ago

I love when we fall through another wormhole

Furious George!? What have they done to you?

[–] Pat@feddit.nu 1 points 3 weeks ago

Hey, you got a ketchup smudge on that there post. Let me wipe it off. Epstein
