AI Generated Media is Unmonetizable

Hey all, this is an exploration into the fundamental meaning of art and what it would mean for AI to take it over. Despite working in the film industry, I’m not an AI hater, but I’m confused and annoyed at AI companies inventing new problems to be solved when there are so many existing problems that could be focused on instead. submitted by /u/AndyJarosz [link] [comments]

If AI replaces employees of a company, will the company itself be replaced by AI too?

A company is not just a collection of people. It is a collection of people doing stuff. And if Ai does the stuff, people are replaced. But as Ai does the stuff of the company, AI could replace the company itself, and take over its business. The CEO of the company would find himself unemployed, because AI company replaced the company he managed. What do you think about it? submitted by /u/JoseLunaArts [link] [comments]

Gemini Flash hallucinates 91% times, if it does not know answer

Gemini 3 Flash has a 91% hallucination rate on the Artificial Analysis Omniscience Hallucination Rate benchmark!? Can you actually use this for anything serious? I wonder if the reason Anthropic models are so good at coding is that they hallucinate much less. Seems critical when you need precise, reliable output. AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate (lower is better) measures how often the model answers incorrectly when it should have refused or admitted to not knowing the answer. It is defined as the proportion of incorrect answers out of all non-correct responses, i.e. incorrect / (incorrect + partial answers + not attempted). Notable Model Scores (from lowest to highest hallucination rate): Claude 4.5 Haiku: 26% Claude 4.5 Sonnet: 48% GPT-5.1 (high): 51% Claude 4.5 Opus: 58% Grok 4.1: 64%...

LG Will Let TV Owners Delete Microsoft Copilot After Customer Outcry

This must sting for Microsoft. LG says customers can delete Copilot from their TV after seeing people complain about it on Reddit. People are saying tech is being forced on them, which is accurate. Just take a product we like and slap on AI, with total disregard for the user experience, right? Because that’s what we’re seeing rn. And when your product doesn’t even solve a user *need*, then yea, you’re going to see stuff like this. Hopefully we see more of this “opt in” by default. submitted by /u/JonSpartan29 [link] [comments]

There are today >175,000 AI-generated podcast episodes on Spotify/Apple, a # which is growing by >3,000 every week, largely due to a single 8-person company (Inception Point AI, which bills itself as the “audio version of Reddit”). The AI podcasting market is worth 4 bil today, up from 3 bil in 2024

Source (November 2025): "Inception Point AI [is] a startup with just eight employees cranking out 3,000 episodes a week covering everything from localized weather reports and pollen trackers to a detailed account of Charlie Kirk’s assassination and its cultural impact, to a biography series on Anna Wintour. Its podcasting network Quiet Please has generated 12 million lifetime episode downloads and amassed 400,000 subscribers — so, yes, people are really listening to AI podcasts. [...] The price is now so inexpensive that you can take a lot of risks [...] At a cost of $1 an episode, [the approach is] quantity-over-quality" Source (December 2025): "The artificial intelligence (AI) in podcasting market size has grown exponentially in recent years. [...] The growth in the historic period...

What is something AI still struggles with, in your experience?

This year, AI has improved a lot, but it still feels limited in some situations. Not in theory, but in everyday use. I want to know what you guys have noticed. What type of tasks and situations still feel hard for today's AI systems, even with all the progress? submitted by /u/Govind_goswami [link] [comments]

“Trucker wrongly detained through casino’s AI identification software now suing officer after settling suit with casino”

My question is about reliance on facial recognition software, and more generally about reliance on AI. Here are two links to stories about a recent incident. A website covering truckers: "Trucker wrongly detained through casino’s AI identification software now suing officer after settling suit with casino", and second, the bodycam footage (on YouTube) which captures the arresting officer talking about his (in my opinion) extreme reliance on AI. Here are the important details: A man was detained and then arrested based on a facial recognition system. There was a large amount of evidence available to the arresting officer that the man was falsely identified. For example, he had multiple pieces of documentation indicating his correct identity, and multiple pieces of evidence that would point...
