    What does this mean in this context? Send takedown notices to people who joke on the Internet?

      The fucksmith post in question has been removed by moderators, so I wonder if Google really is pressuring Reddit to remove jokes from their platform now. This person had no idea their shit post would be used to train AI over a decade later, and they certainly weren’t violating any policies when they posted it. It’s like nobody involved in this process knew anything about Reddit.

      Pay $60 million to train on bad data.
      Implement AI trained on bad data.
      Panic when the AI returns bad answers.
      Manually remove bad data.
      Profit??
