“In a screenshot Harper shared, the request came with a brief script: “Hey Terry, Your host Bryttanni (Britt-knee) from FanDuel wanted to make sure your Thanksgiving was extra special, so I just wanted to hop on and wish you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving. Tell Max (son) I said hello!” The submission suggested Harper could add “personal touches” to the message. Harper followed that script in the video, then ended by thanking the recipient for his support and wishing him a happy holiday. “I read (the script) in good faith,” Harper said in the statement. “FanDuel then put its own logo on the video and used it as a gambling promotion. I did not know FanDuel would do this, I did not consent to it, and FanDuel had no right to do it. “Had I known FanDuel’s true intent, I would not have made the video. The same is true had I known anything about Terry or his situation, or about any alleged ‘partnership’ between Cameo and FanDuel.” Excerpt From “Bryce Harper addresses Cameo video sent by FanDuel to gambler: ‘I did not consent to it’” Stephen J.

Screenshot from the article reading "Having encountered my share of liars and developed something of an expertise in their tells, Mr. Back’s demeanor — his shifty eyes, his awkward chuckle, the jerky movement of his left hand — struck me as fishy. When the credits rolled up, I replayed the sequence several times on my TV."

Where people get tied up is with the argument, “well most humans don’t produce novel work either”. But this is not because they’re fundamentally incapable of it. The average person is simply just sandbagged with an unfulfilling job. Ideally, without the perverse incentives of shareholder value, LLMs would automate all the busy work, allowing humans to focus on more meaningful pursuits.
