How AI Killed Reddit

In this video, we explore the Reddit Meltdown that happened last week and the future implications of how AI is changing the internet right before our eyes. Artificial Intelligence requires vast amounts of data, which means data is becoming increasingly valuable. What does that mean for platforms that have historically shared their data with 3rd party developers?
You’re all missing the point. Companies building general AI models need huge amounts of training data on just about any (and every) topic available so their AI model will be “smart” or knowledgeable in all topics. Companies like Open AI have done a good job of leveraging as many information sources as they can get their hands on in order to build a smarter, more knowledgeable AI. The problem is companies like Reddit, and Google’s UA-cam platform have APIs that were designed to make it easier for developers to access their platform programmatically, and these APIs were never intended to be used to pull training data for AI. I’m not here to debate whether or not companies building AI models should be able to pull large amounts of data from third party API‘s in order to obtain large amounts of training data for free. Most of these companies that provide an API to their data specifically prohibit using their APIs to pull massive amounts of data down to be used for training AI large language models. It seems that some companies have ignored those restrictions and leveraged these free APIs to pull massive amounts of data anyway for training their AI model, so what we’re seeing now is that these tools which used to be free and a great way for developers to get access to data to build cool apps for their users are no longer free. It seems it wouldn’t be that difficult for the API owners to monitor and inspect the traffic to theirs servers, and either rate Iimit and throttle back unusually large quantities of API calls over certain period of time, or allow free access for normal traffic volumes to their API servers. If they detect someone is making extremely large numbers of requests to their API in a short amount of time such as someone pulling large amounts of data to train an AI model, they could then charge whatever fee they want for that use case, rather than simply start charging everyone, whether we’re using it for a legitimate purpose, for which the API was designed intended, or someone using it to grab large amounts of free AI training data.
They can just scrape the public web site. So I don't get the focus you make on the API. APIs are not necessarily open doors that give you access to everything The owner of the site determines what's going to be exposed. Reddit should develop its own large language model based on our data that they have collected. They certainly have the funds to do it.
I feel that Reddit yields low quality AI anyway
You didn't mention AI once
Lol
Nice click bait!
This was effect of AI man could you not understand the context
They sell data for AI
Not clickbait. I guess you just don't get it. This video was very much related to the future of AI training and general trends across the web with regard to AI training/competition.
Data generated by their users, by the way
Which they didn't have a problem with until they realised they could get money from it...
Always read the small print.
"Content is King"; apparently, this is a pull-back with new arms coming soon. They will all have AI. How throttled will we be?
Another plattform in full enshittification-mode.
quite alarming...
This is why the community of Reddit started Reddit coin, the ticker is $RDDT and is built on ETH.
I would have left the api free for existing projects
Well they are screwed now cause with scrapers proxies and llms don't néed no APIs no more at least not for public stuff
The consolidation of power has begun, Sam Altman is trying to get Open source AI shut down also.
The reinforcement of Data as a service (daas)
pull back from the click bait bro, people interested in AI are not the same people who are into clickbait
Agree, I'm unsubscribing
Lol paper tigers
this isnt clickbait, reddit stopped becaythey said ppl were training ais with their data
You have a very limited perspective. This video was very much related to the future of AI training and general trends across the web with regard to AI training/competition.
@@int_pro exactly
Why didn't Apollo just port to the fediverse? Turn P2P degrees and walk away. Personally, RIF stopped working so I stopped using Reddit.
Thumbs down for the click bait
That's true, it isn't representative of the actual video information.
It should be more like, "AI killed Reddit API" or something. But who needs to watch a video when the info is all in a four word sentence lol
Are you shocked?
b.t.w. Free Markets are managed that way, otherwise they don't stay free. Sounds ironic, yet true. We have anti-competition laws, which sounds ironic as well. It's not against competition, the laws are against anti-competition.
So, two feet in freedom doesn't work without a foot of intervention and imposition, ironically.
Aww this is so sad - locking up the human conversation.b this is really bad for human beings. Business at the cost of people.
It’s not. It’s a free market society and this is what knocks companies off their thrones to make way for new and innovative ideas and businesses.
Everything changes. It’s all a reflection of nature.
I agree this isn’t good.
I also agree with this, other companies will emerge, as they already have been.
@@matthew_bermanthis was the sum of our personal knowledge, jokes, ideas that we happily poured out into the world because REDDIT was offered free to anyone who wanted to go take a look.
regardless of whether legal fine print says, put it behind a paywall is a dreadful thing. Also, hampering the ability of our emerging Aye!aYe! to learn, will likely be a huge detriment to human beings in the future.
@@EvolutionWendy the sum? But a drop in the ocean that is life and human experience. The best has yet to come by a long shot
I cant like this video cause I hate such news. 😢
Unhinged lol
Click bait title = downvote
You can also select "Don't recommend channel" which is a much better way to hurt click bait d bag channels.
Any interaction like a thumbs up or thumbs down, shows engagement and signals the algorithm to show it to more people.
That's capitalism.
Deadit ahaha
