Hackers Simply Asked Meta AI to Give Them Access to High-Profile Instagram Accounts. It Worked
The exploit shows the extreme risk of offloading technical support to AI.Jason Koebler (404 Media)
Another great story about the impact of AI with no mention to it in the headline of the story:
In South Korea a Starbucks marketing campaign is created using AI and executives don't even bother to open the email attachments to check the proposals. The campaign was published on the date of a pro-democracy protesters massacre calling it Tank Day and using slogans clearly drawing from the deadly military attack, which felt deeply unrespectful to the victims. The AI most likely learned that from far-right forums like Ilbe where mocking the victims is common.
They cancelled the campaign hours after publishing it but it was too late, the CEO has been sacked, card payments went down a 26%, refunds haven been requested from prepaid cards, police is investigating and Starbucks asked costumers to refrain from directing their anger to staff.

#AIslop is already dying and along with it any company who onboarded with this kind of #enshittification.
#Duckduckgo has launched a noai search service which has seen a spike in traffic after #microslop entrenched #windows even more with AI. This is not just an isolated incident, but a trend already.

I think the most important message here is that we need #mediaLiteracy.
Unfortunately, the trend of #alienation from nature, #anthropomorphising etc. began long before #AI: with the #instagramisation of life. Now it's the mass of #AISlop.
Which is different from #AI as #ML. In our nature park we try to reconnect children with nature via technics: on excursions in the forest etc. they may use their ID-Apps (which work with AI!) ... and many know more about species than their parents.

"Three distinctive characteristics of contemporary society can exacerbate this issue: the pervasive use of social media, anthropomorphizing of animal behavior, and disconnection from nature."
