  Interestingly the founder of the project seems to explicitly disagree with that article

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Announcing the Ladybird Browser Initiative⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Based on the community being quite succsessful so far despite being made by volunteers, I don’t think they will.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, at least we all have some miniscule power to make it better I guess

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately not

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spy.pet is harvesting your Discord history with no ability to opt-out⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you running a server which has a “community server” badge on it or using disboard?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy is growing and they are coming⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Currently there doesn’t seem to be any mechanisms preventing me from spinning up an instance with 10k votes to downvote a post. The bots will come eventually

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord Shuts Down Servers for Switch Emulators Suyu & Sudachi; Disables Lead Developers Account As Well⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I suspected that would happen the moment I realized suyu uses only a discord server. Shame they didn’t use matrix or even IRC

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨unsure why we are surprised lol⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just block them if you care that much (or if you can’t, submit a github issue on the relebent repo)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids Are Watching Brain Melting AI-Generated Videos on YouTube Without Parents Realizing⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  … What are you saying exactly? If enough people believe a word has a certain definition, then that word is given that definition, that’s how language works. There is nothing stopping the word Frindle for example replacing the use of the word pen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ASCII art elicits harmful responses from 5 major AI chatbots⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The harmful part wasn’t the counterfeit money part, its the part where script kiddies use chatgpt to write malware or someone trys to get instructions to make VX nerve agent. The issue is the fact that the air can spit back anything in its dataset in a way that can lower the barrier to entry to committing crimes ( Hay chatgpt, how do I make a 3d printed [gun] and where do I get the stl).

  You’ll notice they didn’t censor the money instructions, but they did censor the possible malware.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CFCs⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The question is, what will happen in 2038 when y2k happens again due to an integer overflow? People are already sounding the alarm but who knows if people will fix all of the systems before it hits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Christians think gay people are trying to convert them to being gay *because Christians try to convert people to being Christian*.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably listen to there speeches and surmons that are posted online then figure it out. Another theory is it could be a highly selective interpretation of the Jewish old testiment law to provide “evidence” that Satan and his servants walk along them and are a threat to everything they stand for

  Indeed, I don’t think I can convince you at this point, so enjoy the touch of grass

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨remember, if your gf isn't open source and running locally, you don't own her⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The tech is great at pretending to be human. It is simply a next “word” (or phrase) predictor. It is not good at answering obscure questions, writing code or making a logical argument. It is good at simulating someone.

  It is my experience that it approximates a human well, but it doesn’t get the details right (like truthness or reflecting objective reality), making it useless.

  If you are right, give an actual Iogical response only capable by a human, as opposed to a generic ad hominem. I repeat my question, Have you actually used any of the GPT3 era models?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨remember, if your gf isn't open source and running locally, you don't own her⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  … Don’t pull a strawman, all I said is that the AI’s designed to approximate human written text, do a good job at approximating human text.

  This means you can use them to simulate a reddit thread or make a fake wikipedia page, or construct a set of responses to someone who wants comfort.

  Next time, read what someone actually says, and respond to that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨remember, if your gf isn't open source and running locally, you don't own her⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  … Have you tried any of the recent ones. As it stands chatGPT and Gemini are both built with guardrails strong enough to require custom inputs to jailbreak, with techniques such as Reinforcement learning from Human Feedback uses to lobotomize misconduct out of the AI’s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨remember, if your gf isn't open source and running locally, you don't own her⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes using llama.cpp. Be warned without a GPU or strong SIMD, it will be incredibly slow

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨remember, if your gf isn't open source and running locally, you don't own her⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If all you need is a one sided conversation designed to make you feel better, LLM’s are great at concocting such “pep talks”. For some, that just might be enough to male it believable. The Turing test was cracked years ago, only now do we have access to things that can do that for free*.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨remember, if your gf isn't open source and running locally, you don't own her⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Some people are energised by that kind of thing. However if you don’t want to reveal things to humans, you can use ollama or (if you are more technical) llama.cpp

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11 24H2 goes from “unsupported” to “unbootable” on some older PCs⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sure it wouldn’t be too hard to make something that filtered out all posts/comments containing the word “Linux”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has google stopped working for finding anything?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Tools for backing up servers already exist: github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter But unfortunately discord can’t be easily scraped in one coordinated attempt unlike reddit due to the massive number of private servers and existing verification/anti-bot mechanisms. As a result, only the communities that have data hoarders will be actually archived.

  Nope. However you can use alts with connected or duplicate names, that way you can separate post history while avoiding accusations of being a sockpuppet.
