I haven’t had it be an issue with Tidal. Tidal doesn’t have a strong autoplay algorithm so it tends to nudge users toward more custom curated Playlists. It has a buggy app, make it difficult to block songs or artists, and no duplicate filter which is frustrating, but I don’t agree that AI slop is a very big issue currently. They seem proactive in fighting it and have always been one of the most artist friendly services.
Crap, I’ve always kind of like brown eggs a little better, I don’t really know why. Am I a latent racist? Is there a comic that can help me?
What’s it called when I get real high and code something that I can’t even figure out the next day if it was genius or insanity?

Gen A will be so used to enshitification that they won’t be all down about it. I think you are wrong though, I think even if the morale is relatively improved, it will continue.
In an infrastructure built for bipeds there may be advantages to such a design for flexibility of function. If this is truly a long term monotasker the only real advantage is PR / curb appeal.
I wonder how many “Ban Boaty!” t-shirts I can sell to propenents of this.
These companies presumably have one or two people that know how to use computers? When your business is data, how can you have such a fragile ecosystem?
Unless Alcohol gives you extra finger joints, I don’t think it’s a real picture.
Really hope this doesn’t awaken anything in me. Enough interwebs for today.
Are you down voting because you don’t like the article or are just mad about the topic?
It’s not a poorly written piece and while I think the art is shite, I respect the approach :
"On the issue of data and copyright, Anadol told NPR that the dataset that underpins Machine Dreams: Rainforest – what the founders call a “Large Nature Model (LNM)” – is trained on data collected first-hand from 16 rainforests around the globe. It is also trained using data partnerships with the Smithsonian, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Getty, iNaturalist, and London’s Natural History Museum.
“The best way to achieve responsible curation is to build our own models and be radically transparent about where our data comes from,” Anadol said in an email.
Asked about how Dataland will handle environmental custodianship, Anadol said, “Sustainability is not a constraint we work around; it is a condition we build from.” "
We could be seeing much much worse than this.
The characters here resemble children. Reading stimulates the imagination in a way video cannot. It’s a meme not a statement of absolute truth. In my country at least children are saturated with screens and reading is undervalued. It’s not a criticism of art forms, it’s a criticism of modernity, child-rearing, and content. To your statement there is higher volume of shit video content than shit literature.
Bit of a tough crowd for this when posting via a medium people are only seeing on screens. There’s a clear defensive tone echoing in these comments.
They cut his fingers off. It’s definitely AI.
Hey, I wear t-shirts over plaid sometimes. It’s not fashionable right now, but this is a little too judgemental.
You know what. Fuck Linda Park, fuck this ass-kissing Google loving article. “designed to protect users from malicious software and scams” and the article keeps this tone throughout. This is not about protecting users! It’s about tightening the grip on control of the app ecosystem.
Consider android authoritys article https://www.androidauthority.com/google-android-sideloading-unverified-apps-new-rules-3650343/
That at least has a little survey where you can express your take on this change
If you want a better perspective of the real impact of this for devs :

You’re confusing corporate hegemonies in bed with an ultra-corrupt federal government for software that would respect someone’s privacy.
Does it really matter if checks and balances have been wiped out? Seems like just a label.
I feel like the message is profound but that I just can’t quite understand it. Books will be written about this someday.
