@somebitslinks @cstross Sounds like things continue to go swimmingly with AI. So glad many want to increasingly rely on it. What could go wrong?
@vincent392@reay @somebitslinks @cstross everything.
@cstross (Haven't you written this...?)
@somebitslinks https://www.rte.ie/news/regional/2024/1101/1478578-hoax-parade-dublin/ starts to discuss some of the issues in a mainstream forum - excellent
@somebitslinks I wonder how much money people spent getting there, or how many other plans were cancelled
Sounds like Dublin as a whole should take the originators & promulgators (Google) of this crap to court for damages
You never know if they get held responsible for the bullshit their stochastic plagiarist produces they might stop building data centres to house them that consume more resources that a small city
@FirefighterGeek@masto.ai@somebitslinks If enough people show up to a fake event, it becomes a real event.
@FirefighterGeek
Just not the kind of event they were hoping to attend
@somebitslinks
Sarah @xgebi@hachyderm.io@somebitslinks Sounds like it was the Dublin's first Halloween Ghost parade 
@xgebi @somebitslinks I understand ninjas participated too. They truly showed their stealth skills.
Have you seen this? @davidgerard 
@gianniseviltwin@ludosphere.fr@somebitslinks Fascinating stuff. We can safely say that the 21st century has really commenced on 31st of October 2024.
@somebitslinks can't believe this happened 
@somebitslinks Good trial rub. I suppose soon they'll get folks to riot in the UK or something.
Oh wait...
@somebitslinks Ai is mocking us but humanity's desire for a chance to party prevailed 
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.

@somebitslinks but they didn't spontaneously start their own parade after realizing this? Disappointed in humanity.
@wigbert@mastodon.worldthis is fascinating on so many levels
@wigbert@mastodon.worldas funny & harmless, this AI “hallucination”in #Dublin may have been, there are way more serious consequences the uncontrolled release of this technology can have

@sol_hsa@peoplemaking.games@somebitslinks welcome to the april fools that never ended.
@MixMistressAlice@todon.eu@somebitslinks A slop or another 'exercise' testing masses' manipulation?
@somebitslinks
> Thousands turned out in Dublin for a non-existent Hallowe'en parade, a rumor started by AI slop
The Trained #MOLE strikes again!
