  I think LLMs are fine in moderation. It can be a useful tool in software development as long as it stays just a tool and you don’t let it write your whole codebase.

  I think LLMs should stay the hell out of the artistic space though. I’m not even remotely an artist but that’s the one thing that is and should remain a human thing. Computer automating art is gross

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Conservatives ordering at the drive through now getting scammed on drinks because theyre too scared to ask for no ice. T Chads, meanwhile, been saying it for years now and just expanded the definition⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that actually happening? Is there an article because that’s wild

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Work smarter, not harder⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Toys R Us too! In Canada at least

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any reputable cybersecurity experts that I could just email them to ask for free advice?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That videos outdated, here’s a more up to date video on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FFBsX5C61Q

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DuckDuckGo poll says 90% responders don't want AI⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure it asks you how often you want to see the AI overview doesn’t it? Can’t you just click never?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Neocities deindexed from Bing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  IIRC that’s just one of the backends they use for their results

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just the Browser: tools to remove AI and other bloatware from Chrome, Edge and Firefox⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For the time being yeah. I still use Firefox on mobile myself but I do hope they release a mobile version at some point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just the Browser: tools to remove AI and other bloatware from Chrome, Edge and Firefox⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I really like the Zen browser. It’s Firefox-based, open source and privacy focused with AI removed but it’s also really pretty and is built around vertical tabs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delirium on demand⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Aw damn yeah. The dev must have needed to take a quick nicotine break between handling requests or something

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delirium on demand⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never tried them but I’ve tried most other things and from what I understand from obsessive drug researching, high doses of Benadryl is not fun and is dysphoric rather than euphoric but some people like doing it anyway for some bizarre reasom

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delirium on demand⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can even go as far as hosting a web server on one: https://bogdanthegeek.github.io/blog/projects/vapeserver/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's easy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s the un-edited version? I want to see how they try to describe how ‘"hard they worked”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hard drive prices have surged by an average of 46% since September — iconic 24TB Seagate BarraCuda now $500 as AI claims another victim⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I should have bought more DDR5 when I first built mine. I figured I’d be able to add more later so I just focused on a good CPU…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘ELITE’: The Palantir App ICE Uses to Find Neighborhoods to Raid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah his Wikipedia page is a trip

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘ELITE’: The Palantir App ICE Uses to Find Neighborhoods to Raid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The CEO is insane. He apparently self-describes himself as a socialist but is the highest paid CEO on earth and fantasises about dumping cyanide-laced urine on people protesting state-backed brutality

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be fabulous⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yo mods can we just ban politics (American specifically) in this community because it’s just being used as a dumping ground

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be fabulous⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t agree with your messaging but I agree with your spirit. I’m here for Lemmy shitposts, not more American internal political slop. We get enough of that shit on our frontpage. Must we suffer another round of corn posting?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why the PS5 ROM Leak Could be a Turning Point for Console Security⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We also only just recently got a capable PS4 emulator. I’d imagine it’ll be a decade or two before the PS5 can be emulated in any sense

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK there is an intense Zionist propaganda campaign ongoing⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It was always really just the “freedom” to speak hatred against the current out-group. Freedom of speech means nothing if its not intersected with the freedom to live a life free of harassment and discrimination

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨News: There Were BGP Anomalies During The Venezuela Blackout⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like I need an ELI5

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rainbow Six Siege Has Been Hacked Again, And Players Are Reportedly Getting 67-Day Bans⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or 23 if you’re really old

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mom with the real questions ⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s probably an easier decision to make when you were born early enough to own a big house

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For my older Millennials⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m unfortunately back into vaping again for like the 20th time but one of those cold-medicine cigarettes from the early 20th of century would go hard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  At this point I feel like the US has greatly crossed over from being a potential threat to a major threat to Canada. We definitely do need our nukes back and I’d like to believe we’re working on it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is with these videos where it's just someone reaction to shit someone else is doing? ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Clearly you’re not a fan of the Wakaliwood Ugandan movie Who Killed Captain Alex and its video joker

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A new family starting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you have ANY Canadian ancestor, you are likely a Canadian citizen as a result of recent changes in Canadian law⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I strongly believe that the yellow should have all been Canadian. It’s dumb having to drive over Maine when heading to the east coast if you don’t want to go through the US

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A belated Christmas gift to R6 Siege!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Released today: Rainbow Six: Siegeier

  It’s exactly the same game but the in game economy has been reset so you’ll be forced to get the privilege to buy all of your addons one more time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rob Pike Goes Nuclear over GenAI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What the hell even is that email? What purpose does sending a fully generated, unprompted email like that out even serve? Is it just a bizarre advertising campaign for their platform? If they wanted to send a sincère thank you message then they could have written it themselves rather than that shallow slop that benefits nobody

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X's Generative AI Image Edit Tool Ignites Backlash — Users Fear Image Misuse⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is about artists posting their artwork so I’m not sure where else they’d be expected to post it?
