Wait, people don’t double-check the automatic translations? Lazy fucks.
Reality is now officially just a series of popular misconceptions

That is a misconception, but not (yet) a common enough one to be listed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_misconceptions
🌎🧑🚀🔫🧑🚀 Always has been.
AI is literally ruining everything for absolutely no reason.
No one asked for this shit.
No one asked for an easier way to translate articles into other languages? I’d imagine that’s something a lot of us would like. Tbf, I’m bilingual tho
Fine. Take your hallucinated translation and read it yourself. Just don’t commit back to the official page and pollute the website.
No one asked for brain dead AI to fuck it up. Language doesn’t translate word for word. Phrases don’t translate natively. But AI will still just translate word for word instead of structures of phrases.
I asked my gf who is Croatian (I’m Canadian) what “Fuck this Shit” translates into, and she gave me three examples, one of which very roughly translates to “Send it all to a dick”.

Expected to read “traditional translation tools” here!
Since old Google Translate was terribly unnatural but now…[0]
New stuff is buggy in a new way[1] but overall it’s being screwed up in helpful ways for many… except human translators (who I don’t see any job programs for!) :-/
[0] Ancient article
[1] “output [is] often…homogeneous, blind to local details, or flat-out wrong“
You seem bitter ah about AI. lol. Do you get this angry when people use Google translate as well? Or are you mostly upset wikipedia is having to implement regulations?
Did you miss that this is the fuck_ai Lemmy? Brain rot is fucking real.
Fair enough. lol. No questions aloud. Got it. Nice community y’all fostering here
I was just saying this doesn’t seem like a malicious thing. More like fallout. Like hating the dairy industry because someone spilled milk
No, it would be like hating the dairy industry because the industry forces us to drink half rotten milk all day telling us it’s better than it was before.
Ironically, the actual human contributions to Wikipedia play a significant role in training LLMs. And since you can’t train LLMs on LLM generated text without recursion errors, the more Wikipedia is contaminated by AI text, the less useful Wikipedia becomes for training purposes.
I’m torn between thinking “keep poisoning your own fucking well, assholes” and “look at all this free labor Wikipedia editors are doing to help AI developers”.
They won‘t poison old books and such, the internet didn‘t keep any promises anyway.
