The offending isekai is still up on AlphaPolis (where it originally won said award) as of this writing. Given its isekai and AI slop, expect some primo garbage.
Anyway, I can recommend skipping this episode and only bothering with the technical or more business oriented ones, which are often pretty good.
AI puffery is easy for anyone to see through. If they're regularly mistaking for something of actual substance, their technical/business sense is likely worthless, too.
Is anyone else experience this thing where your fellow senior engineers seem to be lobotomised by AI?
I've had 4 different senior engineers in the last week come up with absolutely insane changes or code, that they were instructed to do by AI. Things that if you used your brain for a few minutes you should realise just don't work.
They also rarely can explain why they make these changes or what the code actually does.
I feel like I'm absolutely going insane, and it also makes me not able to trust anyones answers or analysis' because I /know/ there is a high chance they should asked AI and wrote it off as their own.
I think the effect AI has had on our industry's knowledge is really significant, and it's honestly very scary.
SFGATE columnist Drew Magary has decreed "The time has come to declare war on AI", and put out a pretty solid sneer in the process. Bonus points for openly sneering billionaire propaganda service Ground News, too.
Alternate (likely harebrained) idea: sell the fediverse as a national security thing, and try to get a defence contract out of it
Reducing government/military reliance on tech corps would reduce the leverage they (and their CEOs) have over them, reducing the risk of, say, a repeat of that time Elon Musk fucked over Ukraine).
In a frankly hilarious turn of events, an award-winning isekai novel had its planned book publication and manga adaptation shitcanned after it was discovered to be AI slop.
