Does anyone else hate what corporations have done to the word "delightful"? All the corporate art is so homogeneous too.

Also a trillion dollar plus market cap company trying to get free labor? Seriously?

The only connecting I'd want to do is with Chinese people to practise my Chinese. Inwhich my horribly broken Chinese would be a detriment to the algorithm.

Now let's imagine it's fun enough so that people don't see it as free labor, but see it as genuine entertainment, like, say, Wordle. How would they weed out bad-faith players who would try to teach the AI bad ideas, just for, well, fun of it? I don't believe they might fail to anticipate that; I want to understand their approach.

If you ask enough people the same question, it's easy to identify and drop outlier answers.

So this helps improve Google’s proprietary products. But they aren’t willing to open source the data set?

I’m sure they’d generate more, and better, data if they committed to open source.

So if Google services behave in a tone-deaf way regarding the culture and languages of non-western countries, now it's the fault of us the foreigners for not contributing enough to the AI?
