    The obvious end goal of the push for LLMs. Centralized control over information that can be used to bend public opinion and trends.

      The article is about using external tools in addition to an LLM. This has nothing to do with “centralized information” and is something that search engines have been doing for years.

        The idea of literally re-writing history in real-time seemed absurd back when I first read it,maybe like 15 years ago.

        Nowadays, between media conglomerates (social and legacy), search engines, and now LLMs (as the next tier), being owned by a handful of extremely rich people who have shown time and time again that they want nothing more than to exert control over people…it’s entirely possible.

        Easy, even.

        Federated platforms aren’t immune to it. Bot army’s swarm reddit and lemmy alike, just as they do mastodon and X. Federated platforms have a bit more capability and interest to fight it, but it really is an arms race at this point.

        And also spez (fuck u/spez) would love to suck Dons tiny scarred and pruney cock. If only spez weren’t like 30+ years too old for him.

      The biggest end goal is scanning everyone’s data that we will only be able to store in the cloud because they bought all the storage and memory. This is useful far beyond advertising.

      But yes, skewing public opinion is part 2 of that.

      The spy agencies finally got their mind control except this is America so it’s also privatized.

        Running everything said or done, online or off, all connected to people and their face and ID, through AI threat detection, to make secret social scores to be used against us I would add. Age checks are to further that purpose, as are the masterbaitorbases of the UK and shitholy red states in the US.

            Then blame the droned undesirables’ death on their opponents and scapegoats and drone them. Then steal their assets after, that goes without saying.

              Basically automated culling of undesirable people for the most arbitary things, fake law and order appearance, but no free elections, no chance of rebellion or improvements, everyone forced to act happy and suffer whatever is inflicted on them, as our overlords attempt to replace us altogether.
