I haven’t finished watching it, but it has some very interesting data points on privacy and how your privacy is being exposed even when you think it isn’t.

    Poison and noise are the way. Making a sandwich for those you love. It will be not fruitful to pay the humans it would take to undo it and make it useful, and they were off to take the ring to mordor. And it might just end up making them pay people to just ingest fact, unlike the clowns in the sewers this one had a red balloon. Hell they could just buy the books and pay people correctly like the system was made before the purple people eater was walking downtown.

      Try harder. A simple request to filter out the nonsense in Gemini gives:

      After filtering out the “nonsense”—the pop-culture references (Lord of the Rings, IT, Purple People Eater) and the random metaphors (poison, sandwiches)—the core message appears to be a critique of modern data processing or AI training compared to traditional publishing.

      The “correct” message hidden in the text is:

      The Core Message

      It is inefficient and costly to pay humans to fix low-quality or “noisy” data. Instead of spending money to clean up automated nonsense, it would be more effective to invest in high-quality, verified sources (like books) and pay human creators fairly, as the system was originally designed to function.

      Breakdown of the “Noise” Removed

      “Poison and noise are the way”: Likely a sarcastic opening about the current state of data. “Making a sandwich for those you love”: Irrelevant personal imagery. “Off to take the ring to Mordor”: Lord of the Rings reference. “Clowns in the sewers… red balloon”: Stephen King’s IT reference. “Purple people eater… walking downtown”: Reference to the 1958 novelty song.

      The Logic Retained

      The Problem: It is “not fruitful” to pay humans to undo/fix “noise” to make it “useful.” The Result: This process ends up forcing people to “ingest fact” (raw data) without proper context. The Solution: “Buy the books and pay people correctly” according to the original “system.”

    I as often as possible use incorrect data. I always get directions from places close to where I want to go but not the actual places. never use my actual info unless absolutely necessary. I learned it from the blues brothers.

    I have been poisoning all data I generate for decades since I was a kid. I knew even back in like 2000 that the government is probably spying on people and that they would one day use AI or bots to try to influence people or read their minds. I always use different info on every site. It’s not just surveillance by the pedo state but also protecting your identity and stuff.

    Worthwhile yet tricky. Companies like OpenAI, Google, Meta, etc are full of experts in statistics and they have access to a lot of storage space. If use a service from those companies, say 4hrs per day between 7am and 9pm, at a certain frequency, e.g. 10 requests / hour, then suddenly, when you realize you actually do not trust them with your data, you do 10000 req/hr for 1hr then that’s a suspect pattern. Then might be able to rollback until before that “freak” event automatically. They might still present you as a user your data with the changes but not in their internal databases.

    So… I’m not saying it’s not a good idea, nor useful, but I bet doing it properly is hard. It’s probably MUCH harder than do a GDPR (or equivalent) take out request then deletion request AND avoiding all services that might leverage your data from these providers.

        Freedom to be exploited or exploit others even harder for “success”.

        Sarcasm aside there are state equivalents, e.g. CCPA.

    Poisoned data is extremely easy to filter and will only get easier as AI improves. Stop making these posts this is basically FUD. It is much better to get rid of the data you can and form proper data hygiene practices.

      That is why you dont use normal techniques, like the karmasurta suggests. You can do it many ways, to include with what your neighbor is doing or even on different parts of the subject. They exclaimed to themself “but giving up is so much easier”, yes it is yugioh, but you have to believe in the heart of the cards if you want to get anything done. Or make it so much of a pain that they have to goto other methods of gardening the weeds out.

    I think he could have gotten to the point quicker TBH. The videos was a bit tedious to watch not because of the fact but it was waffle waffle on what is obvious then a one min suggestion of how to poison it which does not really seem convenient way to do it TBH
