Ah yes trustworthy source 80.lv

Look into this source for like 2 seconds, it is a marketing research company, not journalists, with extremely suspicious and likely generated team. https://80.lv/contact-us#audience https://my.linkedin.com/in/arti-sergeev the "Head" of 80 level doesn't even seem like a real person, definitely not a real picture.

So you’re saying the 80.lv “team” are AI generated? Wouldn’t that be ironic…AI making shit up about AI.

Uhh, why do you say that's not a real pic?

[–] hamid@crazypeople.online 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Literally everything about that site is generated. It is possible it is the real picture of a Russian guy who went to online school that lives in Malaysia but considering that all the articles, all the stock photos look generated, I'm going to assume the faces are too.

Ok so you're bullshitting based on assumptions. Maybe you're right maybe you're wrong. Got it.

I know for a fact this is a fake article with no proof lol that is enough for me. Sorry you lack critical thinking skills and media literacy

You know for a fact something that you cannot prove outside of your own personal intuition. This is why we can't have nice things.

Wow ai has gotten really good https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2499164710468188&set=pb.100011240502375.-2207520000&type=3

He even has the right number of fingers and various pictures in different states of shaving, dress, environments. If that guy is ai, I'd hire him.

Yeah I don't trust the source, but I've heard a ton of articles saying they've been replacing people with AI.

We cannot have the internet be centralized on central hardware with so little oversight.

The thing is that Amazon needs to get broken up way more than Ma Bell did. Most people have never heard of AWS before, but it's crazy to have one company own so much of the internet, even before you get into their stranglehold on internet commerce (which also should be broken up).

[–] mudkip@lemdro.id 5 points 6 days ago

Probably why it crashed then

I wish they'd replace the executives first.

I'd like to read the stackademic link without signing up.

Ask an AI to visit and summarize the page for you /s

More likely their hamfisted return to work layoff scheme has caused them to bleed experienced staff. The only people left are less experienced and give less of a shit. It took them over an hour to realize the database of their DNS system was the issue.

I asked a buddy that works at Amazon about the outage and he pointed me to this article.

https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/20/aws_outage_amazon_brain_drain_corey_quinn/

I know quite a few people who currently work there and pretty much all of them are trying to leave.

I wonder how long AI will function when it starts feeding on AI generated junk data. Like a photocopy of a photocopy.

I really want this to be true, because not only I believe that would be the immediate outcome, but also because it would be hilarious.

But a somewhat credible source that's not wrapped in "allegedly" and old stories would really help drive the point home.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 48 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I know there's doubt as to the validity of the claims. I only want to say this: when "AI" takes jobs, who is there to plug things in to make the "AI" machine go?

Sounds like Amazon fucked around and found out.... Allegedly.
