CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@dacmot @newsguyusa apologies, it was not my intent to criticize your post at all. I was motivated more by the original toot to which we were both responding. A medium high profile news account that was examining the entrails, to which I wanted to give some pushback. My bad that I was unclear and therefore offensive.

@dacmot @newsguyusa it DOES sound like that, I agree, but with this technology, there is absolutely no way to know. Attempting to divine insight into how it arrived at that particular output, or what the actual ground truth is that it has been asked about, is not just impossible and a waste of time, but is actively harmful, promoting the inference of patterns by the user where there is nothing but faces in the clouds.

@deadinside @newsguyusa and this is still the "good for users" part of the enshittification curve.

@deadinside @newsguyusa you forgot the bits about mass plagiarism, undermining the value of creativity driven by actual human experience, concentrating wealth into the hands of oligarchs, being confidently unreliable, and inducing learned helplessness and psychosis in users.

@dangoodin One of the reasons why ppl should simply use a non-cloud password manager like Keepassxc. Sync the encrypted file where you need it using something like syncthing. Own your data! And especially such a crucial thing as all your passwords. Why why why would you ever entrust that to someone else?

@futurebird I have always assumed this must be my role in society.
