I am thankful for the fediverse and hope this never finds its way over here.
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.
Honestly the fediverse is already a bit of a privacy nightmare, and people refuse to take it seriously. Our version of this horror will include your comments and voting activity and likely a bunch of other telemetry which isn't public on reddit. Oh and it won't just be a single "official" AI agent, it will be dozens of them from every corporate or government which wants to build a user database and keep it around forever.
We could bake real privacy protection into our fediverse apps, but the admins and devs seem to have completely punted on this.
it's not a "privacy nightmare" as much as just entirely public and transparent. As long as you're aware of this when posting, then I don't really have a problem with it.
Can we get some more titties on Lemmy so I have zero reasons to go to that crappy site?
I noticed that there's virtually zero women asking for naked men. I kind of hope this means they are done with men, and will finally allow the population to collapse.
Reddit won't ban the shitheads but they will summarize their post history so you can better determine who the shitheads are! ....thanks?
Narrator : "they were all shit heads"
Huh. That's actually not a terrible idea.
I wouldn't automate moderation attached to that (yet), but to give people a tool to gauge if a responder is just disagreeing or is a frequent troll? Yeah, that could work. Better than having to dig through the literary works of some rando stuck in an argument with you when deciding whether to block or report them.
Worst case the summary isn't particularly accurate, but for the reasons you'd be digging through someone's post backlog that's not that big of a deal anyway.
i'll tip $5 to the first person who makes the ai say a slur
If I get it to call itself a clanker does that count?
Sounds an awful lot like the social credit score China was working on a few years back. Wouldn't be surprised if mods start preemptively banning users based on their AI summaries.
And Black Mirror was before that with the idea.
