Comment on Bridgy Fed, a bridge between the Fediverse and other protocols such as BlueSky, is using an opt-out model and that raises a lot of discussion

  Your posts are awfully public, given that goal. I mean, anybody can freely access them and use programs to copy them for any use they desire.

    Isn’t this the same logic used to justify using our posts to train large language models?

      No. There is a difference in context and intent.

      Bottom line is, if people are concerned of having their conversation and content distributed out of their intended audiences, we’ll all have to move to a fully encrypted network, where every message can only be decoded by the intended recipients. Getting upset because other people are not agreeing to your expectations of privacy is pointless.

        I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect that platforms you’re not a member don’t host content you create in order to make it look at though their platform is more popular and vibrant than it is, thus generating revenue of which you’re not going to get a share of.

      And also by the bots we use to copy reddit content here, I presume? 😛

        I’m actually not a fan of copying Reddit content over to here either. I’m at least consistent that in my thought processes.

      What's wrong with the logic used to justify using public data to train large language models?

        I don’t even like the fact that we’re forced to train AI via captcha. When we start getting paid for what we put in, I’ll reconsider my stance.
