I hate driving so much, I moved somewhere 15 minutes from work even though I only go in like 3 times a month

This looks like a fake headline you’d see in the background of a movie

Business Corp Acquires Service Company

Now that’s dedication. I’d probably have driven myself into a ditch by the 3rd month of that (but I haaaate driving)

How good was that job for you to be commuting for 2+ hours a day?

If openai kept buying reddit data after 2022, they are idiots. They let the cat out of the bag.

Bot activity brings “engagement” which generated more page views from actual humans. Literally the only downside of this announcement is the optics of having bots in the first place.

The bots were already indistinguishable from humans on reddit, do you really think that this recent scrutiny is going to lead to fewer bots? Or might it actually lead to better bots?

Is it? Reddit has been full of bots for years.

And if the r/CMV thing didn’t make it apparently, the recent wave of them weren’t “caught in the act” and only became a “problem” when the researchers announced their shitty experiment.

If realistic chat bots can fool the masses, why on earth would reddit get rid of them? It helps their metrics. “Look at how active our site is! Buy stock!”

No they won’t lol

If they didn’t do it already, it’s not gonna happen now. This is lip service to the shareholders

Or he’s just shitting on other companies who he knows are too greedy to do the same. Proton is getting positive press for this and he’s leaning into it with a bit of hyperbole

Not saying he’s a genius or anything, he’s just a spokesperson doing spokesperson things

The other reply is correct, they get crazy cheap shipping rates by sending small things. Like every Temu package costs taxpayers money to subsidize it

Should have accomplished it the right way by getting rid of the loophole that makes those sites so profitable instead

Someone’s obviously never visited the German Outback.
