Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The argument the mod writes is 👌

Update : there’s a new one that appears but, I’ve checked, that’s the same mod as the others

Update 2 : got contacted by the mod, overall sweet guy/gal we agree to disagree and keep the ban up, who said that Lemmy cannot be civil

are you saying people here may have been banned by communities without even knowing? fascinating :o I wouldn't even know how to check that

I was banned from a whole bunch of AI slop communities for 'persistent trolling' ... but I'd never posted to any of them, so ... yes. They ban you preemptively.

I mean.. That kind of sounds like they're doing a public service, TBH 😅

I’d agree but it’s pretty fucking gross to ban people that have never even visited your community.

I legitimately think anyone here would deserve a ban if they went over there and said shit. We clearly don’t belong but we’re here minding our own business.

Yeah, the preemptive nature of the ban shows some extreme fragility. It would be like the mods of this channel going to the slop celebration channels and banning anybody who posted there.

It reminds me of that old Reddit meme when people were banned from /r/Pyongyang

Yes, but its not a problem. Usually the mod just bans you from their personal AI dumping ground.

Oh nooooooo I'm banned from the septic tank I didn't want to see in the first place oh noooook

I found out that I was banned from a handful of communities. I was banned for 3 months or something, but didn't even see that I was banned until after about 6 months had passed. I guess it didn't impact me at all. The mods be trippin'.

No different from Reddit in that regard
