Look what they have to do to mimic a fraction of our power

We’re just not doing the same knee-jerk reactions to GenerativeAI as technology. I would argue most of us are against corporate control of such technology though. In a sense it’s like not being against social media even through we’re against facebook and reddit.

Personally, I reject copyrights as a valid framework, and thus all arguments that hinge on respect for copyrights to go against GenerativeAI fall flat. I likewise find that the problems caused by generative AI are capitalist problems, and not technological problems.

More to the point, I regularly upvote and posts posts such as the OP myself on !techtakes@awful.systems

This approach was developed precicely for threaded fediverse. The initial use-case was protecting my own lemmy from CSAM! Check out fedi-safety and pictrs-safety

Ye, a normal VPS would be too slow for production use, as a GPU is recommended. But you can plug in any home PC to do it without risks

IFTAS is already working with Thorn towards this goal. But you already have access to such technology through my toolset.

haha, nah people reported some unexpected censors, and we investigated what part of their prompt might be causing it.

It’s the earliest AI technology striving to expose unreported CSAM at scale.

horde-safety has been out for a year now. Just saying… It’s not a trained AI model in this way, but it’s still using Neural Networks (i.e. “AI Technology”)

Meh

I don’t even think you need even a bot for that. Just grab the relevant RSS

This is completely unsurprising tbh. A lot of the old mods were enthusiasts who grew a community from scratch due to their love for the subject. In the reddit API shutdown, a lot of those mods left in disgust, or were replaced by the reddit admins, or were driven off by the leftover toxic userbase calling them “entitled jannies” or whatever. A lot of the mods who took over their place were just power-hungry users who were chomping at the bit to get the chance to run a big community as their personal fiefdom because they were too toxic to grow one themselves.

This is the inevitable culmination of these events.

Anyway, welcome to lemmy. We become more powerful from every user who writes off reddit forever.

PS: if you see power-trippin’ behaviour around these parts, you can always post about it in !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Moreover, Bluesky already feels a bit like how social media would look if a non-TERF version of the Guardian was running it. It’s very liberal, very centrist, and very ‘don’t rock the boat too much’.

We’ll be keeping an eye on this, and for the moment we’ll be posting to both Twitter and Bluesky. We look forward to engaging with you wherever you end up.

“we’re not ready to choose between the cop bar and the Nazi bar, so for now we’ll keep hanging out in both.”

Of course they don’t mention fediverse as an option. Of course.

I read most of it until I reached the point where it’s a slow-burn advertisement for their own AI assistant
