Oh look it’s another stupid fucking idea from Microslop

Google Voice was also a service designed to gather training data for speech to text / text to speech services at Google. That’s why it was free. The advent of LLMs just gave it something else to plug the data into. The Microslopening of GitHub, at its core, had similar motivations. Having effectively full backend visibility of all content on the (at the time) centralized service that damn near everyone who publicized their code was using to publicize their code was a valuable business proposition even before they shoved it all in to a training set.

Microslop bought GitHub for the training data. That’s it. That was the whole point.

The funniest part is that their model is considered to be rather shit-tier.
