"Now, we're in this cycle of like, 'what's a podcast? Is it a video, is it audio, is it a YT channel?'. To me, it's the RSS feed; if you can take it with you, and I can listen to it on anything, not just YT, that's a podcast to me."

Any company promoting media as a "podcast", but we can't subscribe using our podcatcher of choice, *and* download for offline listening, is guilty of false advertising.

It's weird that FOX is still advertising as "FOX 23" here even though they're not on channel 23 anymore, they're on channel 8.2...

Well, I've finished all of Cougar Town, and I gotta say, I'm a bit disappointed by the severe lack of middle-aged “cougaring” and the rampant glorification of middle-aged alcoholism 🍷 🐆 #FalseAdvertising

A friend recently sent me a link to a podcast episode I might enjoy;

https://open.spotify.com/episode/6WAqeZjQLovTnd2UqcVxf0?si=fKc28UncTaOcI9lw4NxLZw

Turns out it can only be heard when logged into Spitify's proprietary platform.

I think there needs to be a large-scale campaign of false advertising complaints against platforms that call a show a "podcast", but only allow you to hear it on their platform.

It's like calling something a website when you can't view it in any web browser, only a proprietary app.

Large language models do not, cannot, and will not “understand” anything at all. They are not emotionally intelligent or smart in any meaningful or recognizably human sense of the word. LLMs are impressive probability gadgets that have been fed nearly the entire internet, and produce writing not by thinking but by making statistically informed guesses about which lexical item is likely to follow another.

One day when I have a couple of spare spoons I want to put in a report about false advertising on the two online games I play.
Both have multiple fake characters claiming 'I am the boss of ...'
Lately they also have real actors but use AI voices (all somewhat flat). Even more annoying than claiming they are all the boss.

Either Temu and a well known game change bosses every couple of weeks or they are lying.

@lebronjames75
Reminds us of how the #MadeInAustralia campaign was corrupted about 5 years ago.

Powers that be announced that everyone had to put the widely recognised (and once respected) Made In #Australia iconography on everything, but with a little slider underneath to show the percentage of Australian product in the package.

So we now have some products with no local, Australian ingredients with the #kangarooIcon.
