How useful is low-quality content like Youtube comments and tweets anyway? Is it a common/important use case to generate tweet-length, tweet-quality content? Are most use cases of generating tweet-type content spam/fraud? Would a model be better off if it was unable to perform those use cases?
- redox99 1y agoEven if SNR is low, there is some information that only exists on X, or at least is the primary source. Just look at how many submissions on HN are X posts.
- add-sub-mul-div 1y agoBefore Musk bought it Twitter was broadly disliked here and there were regularly calls in the comments to disallow submissions from there. Given how it's degraded in completely non-partisan ways (blocking of alternative clients, features removed from free tier, paid subscription tiers below $40/month still have ads, proliferation of spam from paid placement bots in comments) I can't understand how positive sentiment comes from a place other than virtue signaling alignment with Musk and his values.
