  • It was already a challenge back in those days. I ran the Nokia N9 for a while, and within a year it went from being amazing at messaging due to its messaging app mixing different XMPP providers in one interface (Google Talk, Facebook Messenger, SMS, etc in a single interface) to everyone in the industry suddenly giving up on that and only supporting in-app messaging.

    There were valiant attempts to create open source versions of popular apps, but those efforts were always intentionally sabotaged by those providers.


  • I mean, this isn’t specifically an AI issue, this is scammers updating the info in Google business listings because the airlines don’t actually care to maintain those pages (and Google doesn’t want actual humans doing any work to make sure their shit is accurate). This has been going on before AI, AI is just following the garbage in, garbage out model that everyone said was going to be the result of this push.
