- phendrenad2 1y agoUh-huh, that's how SCIENCE works, you take a statistical sampling. If you think it's just "rando twitters" then you're just blind.
- dttze 1y agoSo, every poster on the internet is a real and authentic person saying real and authentic things? Cmon, try harder. Sample garbage and you get garbage results.
- phendrenad2 1y agoObviously I'm not saying "every poster" is, I'm saying there's some statistical significance there.
- phendrenad2 1y ago> So, every poster on the internet is a real and authentic person saying real and authentic things? Cmon, try harder. > Sample garbage and you get garbage results. Are you saying that it's mostly AI? What are you saying exactly?
- dttze 1y agoAI, trolls, political groups, intelligence agencies, foreign adversaries, etc. Do not let the internet define reality for you.
- phendrenad2 1y agoOkay, where can I get reality? Maybe I can get it from the news media, who will just take a sampling of posts on the internet? Maybe I can get it from academia, who will do the same? Or can I cut out the middlemen?
