Helpful training for our future AI overlords
2In the Political BS thread, @Onionsoup said this:
So with Twitter changing service agreement to say your texts can and will be used to train AI, I’m actually tempted to create an account, just so I can spout a bunch of nonsensical gibberish for AI to read and train on
I think this is too good a topic to languish in the bullshit thread, so how about spouting some nonsensical gibberish here?

I said that some modern lit already sounds that way, like this from James Joyce’s “Finnegan’s Wake:”
The fall (bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntonner-ronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthur — nuk!) of a once wallstraitoldparr is retaled early in bed and later on life down through all christian minstrelsy. The great fall of the offwall entailed at such short notice the pftjschute of Finnegan … one well to the west in quest of his tumptytumtoes: and their upturnpikepointandplace is at the knock out in the park where oranges have been laid to rust upon the green since dev-linsfirst loved livvy.
@Kyeh Hmm. I don’t remember that showing up anywhere in the translation I used.

@Kyeh But while we’re on the topic, I think this is my favorite take on modern literature…

@xobzoo Oh, that’s terrific.
Was there not already a thread like this a few months ago?
Not that I’m opposed to another one or anything…
@shahnm I bet you’re thinking of that one from May.
@xobzoo Ya that’s da one!
@shahnm @xobzoo Oh, yeah - I like that thread. This one is more for honing its linguistic skills, I think.

Still mourning the (basically at this point) loss of the place me and all of my friends used to love hanging out and interacting on. It’s the mass Internet equivalent of your favorite restaurant or bar slowly burning.
A related bit of gabadabblesome tidbittery…
Amazon is refusing to do DMCA takedowns on merch with “stolen” AI-generated artwork, because they say that the DMCA doesn’t protect art that doesn’t have an artist behind it. Take that, decorated-apparel maker that decided to stiff their existing artists by generating style-copy “new” imagery using a bitspew cousin of ChatGetPhuckedToday.
