The first use of AI I’ve seen that truly made me happy.
Intro from the original article:
People are vibe coding their way to better TVs
Users are getting fed up with the barrage of ads and data tracking on TVs and are looking to AI vibe coding for the answer.
Vibe coding has reached TVs. Social media is awash with posts from people using LLMs and open-source tools to remove ads and tracking, trim bloat so the OS runs faster, and even completely change the look and organization of their homescreens. While a lot of it is fun — one user turned their TV homescreen into a Pokémon town — I think there’s a level of frustration behind it, too. And TV companies should take notice.
siri, what is a trojan horse?
Doing this to your TV is like saying: the high level demon I get my power from is being a little b***ch, so to solve the problem I instead summoned baphomet
Nothing good will come from using these things to create the illusion of what people want. Especially given it’s likely it only even looks like it works because of years of thankless work from people who actually give a shit
This is more and more resembling the OG witchhunters. Afaik they too accused their targets of being “possessed by demons”.
