Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

You'll get used to it. It's not going away. It makes no sense putting so much effort into loathing something that's already ubiquitous.
Plus most of what people ask a chat is not how to keep a nuclear reaction stable, but little inconsequential stuff that, worst case scenario, won't matter more than a slightly burned cake.
It'll go away.
Like every one of these dumb "next big thing" bull shit scams. The money will fall out and OpenAI and Anthropic will collapse and everyone relies on them to power every other LLM.
The vast majority of people AT BEST don't even use AI or think about it at all. The bulk of what is left hate it for one or more of a variety of reasons.
Hell, I use Claude for random personal code projects maybe once a month but I would not care if it went away and I will never pay for any LLM.
Ai is not going away, what a silly thought. People have been dreaming of this, since the beginning of time and you think they will stop? That makes no sense. 0 sense. You should take it easy, stop putting so much effort in you hate. Realistically this is not going away. People have had a taste and it's only going to get more of this. There are hundreds of billions of investments already planned for next year. Sorry, you won't get your wish. Maybe there could be a slowdown, but going away, that's just funny.
Since the beginning of time, mankind has dreamed of the slop generator.
A bit more than 5 years ago, this "slop generator" you say, was only in science fiction. 50 years ago this would be considered magic.
Just because you hate it with so much passion doesn't mean everyone agrees.
People who have been dreaming of it, have dreamed of AI.
We don't have anytbing anywhere near actual intelligence. We have smoke and mirrors in a marketing trenchcoat.
Ai doesn't mean actual intelligence. It means a simulation of intelligence. Ai we have now is exactly that. And you have wet dreams about way worse ai than we have now not only in scifi but even in academia not 50 years old.
Sorry it's not up to your standards tho lol
If its not intelligent, what is the point?
Artificial Intelligence. Not human intelligence, a different kind.
Intelligence isn't inherently human. It's the ability to process information, recognize patterns, and produce outputs based on data. LLMs do exactly that, just through a different mechanism than biological brains.
No, they were not dreaming of a machine advising to put glue in a pizza. Yes, it will take time for another round of "oh well, turns out this wasn't the dream we were promised" to happen. Yes, go away it will
Oh yes, but they have. Very much so.
Even ai in star trek had many faults. Go away? To where? That doesn't make any sense. So many people are using it. For what reason would they all decide to stop? Because you want it?
Wow, do you really impress me as delusional. But since I am not irritated enough, let's go on
Please do provide examples, I haven't seen it
To oblivion, nonexistence. Makes very much sense. Heard of a notion of dying out?
Iteration 2: because they realize it's not what they want. Today it suggests cooking pizza with a glue, tomorrow I am not trusting it to instruct me how to manage electric cables in my house. Why? Because I am not knowledgeable enough to catch it spewing suicidal nonsense that will kill me. So instead of AI I am going to look for human-made DIY video or better yet go pay some electrician who knows what to do way better than me
Haven't seen startrek? How about any scifi about ai?
Oblivion? How do you propose that will happen at this point. Just a common decision of everyone involved? Or the way you phrase it : everyone decided that's not what they want all of a sudden all together , like a couple or something. 0 sense.
Ok, reading comprehension problems detected. No, I am not going to be so kind as to repeat myself to you. Have a good one
No problem. I was genuinely interested in how you think this will play out .
Since nobody can do it . But fine. Take it easy
You were not, lol
Try me.
I have already
Where?
Pay attention and you will find all the answers
So nothing. You really have nothing. Ok then. Bye
Lol. So you have read nothing from 3 iterations. Have a good one, as I already said
It almost sounds like you need AI to not go away for some reason.
Hope you get your money out before the bubble pops, hoss
Why would I need that?
How do you think the bubble will look like? Like dot com? Get it?
What do you mean by "it"? Large language models and machine learning probably aren't going away anytime soon, unless they're replaced by something better. This "AI" scam can definitely go away, though.
Oh, it doesn't take any effort at all!
I don't know what the ai scam is. What is not going away is people saying they checked something with chat.
I know it takes effort because people are really into it and get angry immediately about it. Quite a lot of effort.
You've been in this thread for hours yelling at clouds. Who exactly is angry and expending a lot of effort again?
If the irony here is too difficult to interpret, I'm sure chatpgt can spoon feed an explanation to you
But I'm not angry at all, why would you think that? Because you are furious and projecting?
I think it's silly to hate a technology.
Btw, I think your insults drive home your argument. Your should definitely use that strategy more lol.
We're on hour 4, in case you lost track. You could log off and touch grass, but chatgpt is whispering sweet nothings to you, telling you that you must defend it. What it isn't telling you is I'm trolling the shit out of you and you're taking the bait lol
I'm on a beach with a beer, don't worry about me. On the other hand, anyone can read what you wrote can clearly understand you are seriously agitated. Insults, bad language, ... you are transparent.
But I'm not doing this to anger you. It's a inconsequential meme that a certain kind of people like. I just like to remind them, it's a waste of time to hate.
And yet you're still here, unable to relax and enjoy your day because you're addicted to a chat bot and someone made a meme about it online that you didn't like, resulting in pointless arguing with strangers online to feel validated. That is some seriously sad, terminally online behavior.
Anyhow, my lunch break is over. Hope your day it gets better! My therapist usually recommends less screen time, if that helps.
Haha, more insults. Why you are so set to make it about me? That's a dead giveaway, you know. Sorry, I didn't mean to trigger you. Take it easy. Bye.
Clearly.
