Quotes from the original announcement:
Today, Reddit is the most human place on the internet, and one of the last places on the internet where brands can build authentic, trusted and engaged relationships with customers.
Bwahaha, “most human”? Really? Wow.
A scalable, AI-powered social listening tool designed to unlock strategic value
Barf. Oh boy, “social listening tool” - that’s a new one…
These are tools for a new era of community marketing, one where brands can tap into Reddit’s authenticity
Yup, because nothing says “authenticity” like artificially realigned messages interspersed with AI slop ads. Such real, much authentic, wow…
Today, Reddit is the most human place on the internet, and one of the last places on the internet where brands can build authentic, trusted and engaged relationships with customers.
That reads like something out of their totalnotrobots subreddit. I TOO LOVE EXPRESSIVE AND AUTHENTIC HUMAN THOUGHTS.
Hahaha, great point :) HELLO FELLOW HUMAN, WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUILD AN AUTHENTIC, TRUSTED AND ENGAGED RELATIONSHIP WITH ANOTHER HUMAN BEING THAT IS TOTALLY NOT A ROBOT? :D
By “Most Human” clearly they mean the most flawed and greedy.
One more reason to be glad I ditched that hellpit.
Wew, my raging negativity will keep them from buying my data then.
Connecting ads masquerading as posts to bot posts shilling the same crap, got it
How better to celebrate the 2-year anniversary of Rexit?
Fuck Reddit
Fuck spez.
Spez is a greedy little pig boy.
Spez is a lizard robot. I mean, just look at it. It’s a fucking weird creep
The APIcalypse.
May the api access rest in peace
Because Reddit is a nazi sympathizing, brown shirt wearing shithole for jack booted thugs and fascists. It all started when some cunt at Reddit thought “what if my user base was a product?”, and thus the en-digg-ification of Reddit was complete.
Fuck that fascist friendly corpo shithole, it belongs in the dumpster next to Digg.
So they’re going to take what was once the best place for honest reviews and make it shittier.
Glad they don’t have an API or it would make the internet worse.
Welcome to capitalism!
I mean, they do have an API. It’s just so expensive that no one but VC-funded EAcc weirdos can use it
Spez needs to fund his spezial needs somehow
Joke’s on them. I just post and comment negative rants.
I post positive ways to avoid consumerism.
Basically this means nothing will happen, because Reddit is the most negative space in the world.
Spez uses his doomsday bunker as a cat sex dungeon.
“dynamically integrates positive content from Reddit users directly below an advertiser’s creative, putting community conversations front-and-center in the user experience and blending AI-driven efficiency with real human perspectives”.
the company is also introducing a “scalable, AI-powered social listening tool. […] Informed by proprietary metadata, it provides precise, real-time insights that help marketers confidently plan campaigns, validate creative ideas, and make smarter business decisions"
I wonder how much they had to pay a business major to come up with those sentences, or did they just use ChatGPT …
dynamically integrates
I’ve read enough lmao
blending AI-driven efficiency
This makes me want to throw up
I mean, that’s at least functional grammar.
“advertiser’s creative”? The fuck is that? You aren’t cool by dropping the noun out and trying to use an adejective in its place.
As rediculous as it sounds, “creative” is used as a noun in marketing speak to refer to an image, video, carousel, slideshow, or whatever. I know, it’s stupid.
“When I’m cutting people off in traffic, illegally parking in handicap spaces, and racing at 100 mph through school zones, I rely on my Dodge Ram pickup to get it done!”
I mean this isn’t far from the current state of things. I subscribe to /r/fuckcars an anti-car sub and regularly see car ads. These advertisers are wasting their money.
All of this spying and data hoarding has resulted in a finely tuned advertising machine that directs car ads to people who specifically hate cars with a burning passion. Peak of targeted advertising.👌
And people still wonder why I use every means within my disposal to block ads. Even if I allowed ads, they aren’t targeted enough to be much more than an annoyance. Even when they somehow manage to show me something I care about, I’m seeing an interesting product from the highest paying company. It’s not the best product in that category, nor is the one that would serve me best. It’s the one from the company that was willing to pay more than any other. Advertising is just so broken in every way you can think of.
When I plowed through that kindergarten I didn’t get as much as a single dent. If that isn’t an endorsement, then I don’t know what is.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Reddit already had ads that appeared in subs that looked like posts with some tiny text saying it’s an ad. This’ll make it even more insufferable. screw Spez
