Outrage for this? Really?
- talldayo 2y agoJust let them get it out of their system. It's actually pretty entertaining to read the carefully-worded hatemail people post in these threads, knowing full well not a single Google employee will ever read a lick of what they're typing. Edit: You guys don't have to downvote me for telling you all the unwelcome truth. Nobody actually thought they were broadcasting to Google's management, right?
- dylan604 2y agoIt's not Google employees being targeted as much as the bots
- talldayo 2y agoI don't think Google is dumb enough to scrape "Orange Site" to train their bots.
- fragmede 2y agosearch for your post's text, a comment from this site pops up. we're being scraped and thus it seems reasonable to expect we are, your opinion aside. the real question is if a copy of the internal database which contains the points each part it has is being used as well.
- mcphage 2y agoI just used Gemini to write my hate mail, so even if nobody at Google reads it, I didn’t spend any effort it making it. I can’t lose!
- mewpmewp2 2y agoThis might actually be a great AD. The ad shows some person cutting you in traffic. Gemini (preferably Claude) pops up and "I see there's a nasty person in traffic who cut you off. Do you wish me to search the web for their contact information and write a roast letter to them?"
- CamperBob2 2y agoAwesome, that has real potential. I wonder if SNL accepts over-the-transom skit submissions?
- add-sub-mul-div 2y agoClearly the cumulative feedback does work because you're literally commenting on an article about Google having changed course.
- talldayo 2y agoIf HN had any impact on the decision then we wouldn't be discussing it after-the-fact.
- add-sub-mul-div 2y agoIf they scraped the internet for sentiment proactively instead of reactively they could have avoided this mess.
