The Future Is Now
oh dammit… didn’t see you already posted the same thing lol
The verification can is becoming reality.
They can detect Mountain Dew, but can’t detect slurs.
Yeah. Ok
My tired brain read that title and thought they were somehow detecting mountain dew in people’s bloodstreams.
“Please drink a verification can”
“Please submit a blood sample into our patented Twitch Prime Blood Analyzer™ before beginning your stream. Lord Bezos thanks you for your cooperation.”
pro-tip: instead of going to the trouble of finding and blocking this bot, streamers can also avoid its particular type of spam by simply never being seen consuming this product
Honestly that would be the funny backlash. Streamers start hiding all brand identifiable goods in their streams so this can’t happen again.
Time is a flat circle.
They’ll reverse and it spams your shit until you show a Mountain Dew logo in the stream.
Inserting irrelevant advertisement into Internet chat at inopportune times for a viral marketing campaign is the exact opposite of the value I promote in my latest movie, Babylon, now available on select streaming services.
Because having your logo be in a livestream for free wasn’t good enough. The greed of capitalists is insane.
As if I could have even fewer reasons to drink a Mountain Dew
Just like most of the internet, is Twitch going to turn into AI generated streams being watched and commented on by AI chat bot’s and adbots
edit someone else already posted the verification can post
I came here to post it too lmao
It would be nice if this AI shit turned people off social media altogether.
Kinda hoping AI shit destroys the internet as we know it
That would be a net good for the world
Read this initially as “in people’s dreams” and the absolute wave of horror that rushed over me is unknowable.
This sucks too.
is that twitch doing it or mountain dew doing it?
Sounds like it’s a collab. Twitch is using their new “eye of Sauron “ automod AI and also scanning all video feeds for the mtn dew logo, bottles/cans/etc and then sending the bot into chat to shitpost about entering their contest and/or getting a front page raid.
Why anyone thought we’d want this is beyond me. Twitch is so out of touch.
At least these bots can be blocked clientside. Just wait until the entire stream gets personalized adverts and endorsements by the streamer injected directly by machine learning transformers.
Nobody thought you’d want this feature lmao. You are a cash cow to be milked and they do not give a fuck whether you’re ok with having your udders hooked up to the pump.
