Hell I‘m glad I could post shit on the internet as a dumb teen and no one is able track it back to me. Or at least very likely not. Those forums no longer even exist and never asked me for a phone number or verification anyway. No such luxury for future generations.

Wasn‘t the Black Mirror episode about this technology exactly about a dinner party too? Tech bros don‘t have a single original thought yet they think they can automate creativity.

Also there are subscription models to access a library of high quality models for much cheaper than AI could generate each individual one. Also there are many very talented 3D artists out there who can create unique models of a much higher quality than AI can at the moment.

Once again LLMs aren‘t really solving any problems here. They‘re only trying to disrupt with no benefit for society or the profession.

Seems even less fruitful than training it on Reddit or Xitter to be honest. What are they hoping to achieve? A clown AI that‘s fluent in skibidi toilet?

You need some trust I think. You wouldn‘t really need elections if everything was fact based and that would cause distrust.

I‘m not sure if Democracy can survive with that sentiment but I‘m also not sure if it can survive without it.

Not really how it plays out. In reality safety issues of a magnitude that only surfaced once a decade are now found by AI every few weeks, showcasing that AI itself poses the biggest threat for cybersecurity today. The overwhelming majority of them would have never been found or exploited without AI.

Wild to think there was a world before the zippies!

AI finds bugs and holes that wouldn‘t be a problem if AI didn‘t discover them. I really don‘t envy devs for dealing with this nowadays.

These already exist. They basically just replicated the effect which is fun and all but nothing new.

Imagine what his ancestors would think of Zuckerberg when if they could read this.

Why would any of this matter at the moment? We use the SSDs we already have or can somehow afford. Cost is pretty much the only factor that matters. Virtually nobody had the money to care about trivial things.

I dislike the framing of „natural“ gas. They‘re using fossil fuels.

Whether or not this is the case or how deep he sunk into it, he‘s taking the role of the victim here and it changed the conversation around his blunder. It feels to me like people are grasping for straws when they say „If it happened to a guy this smart it can happen to anyone!“ like he didn‘t just gamble away his credibility on several occasions.

Knitters of all online communities are criticizing the guy harder for his claims about knitting than many people do about his first attempt to wiggle his way out of the AI drama with a non-apology.

But whatever I‘m the last guy to grab for the pitch forks here or anything. I just think people really need to open their eyes about Youtube and content creators in general because despite mostly knowing clips from the guy I wasn‘t surprised by the drama. Despite of what his frequent viewers say, this did not come out of the blue.

The reason they‘ve been constructing data centers this huge, so many of them and so rapidly is AI and they‘ve been building them way too close to residential districts in many cases.

I challenge you to give me one good reason why we need these super data centers in our lives that outweigh the cons. They put our health at risk. Let alone the insane climate damage from all these gas turbines running 24/7. There is nothing on the internet you couldn‘t do anymore without them. Quite the opposite. The construction of more and bigger data centers is vastly accelerating enshittification of all services. You certainly don‘t need super data centers near cities to host Lemmy.

I mean have you seen the electricity bills in some places? They‘re literally running out of power, water and money so you can generate slop of dogs riding tricycles. There‘s a physical limit of how many of those slop factories you can physically support and Florida has seemingly reached it‘s limit.

Funnily enough with Axon they seem to surveil less than half as much as they did previously, giving the anti-flock movement an actual sense of accomplishment. If they continue to fight against Axon, the next vendor will be even smaller.

But yeah they need to outlaw this anyway or it will keep creeping back.

They really should instead look at this and say: „Alright, big tech can‘t be trusted so we‘re breaking up tech corporations invested in AI and any company with a value of a trillion dollars or more.“

They‘re not going to, because they‘re too invested themselves but lawmakers really should draw the right conclusions here.

Actually my LLM became god by founding a religion! Join the cult now!!! Also give me your money!!! We love money!!!

Right now I‘m enjoying premium family for free but if they start shoving AI in my face I won‘t use it at all anymore. I‘m already very annoyed by their obviously (and I‘m pretty sure technically illegally) paid for „recommendations“ on the home page and their stupid audio book credit system. I already wouldn‘t pay for Spotify premium myself in it‘s current form.
