"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
The argument the mod writes is π
Update : thereβs a new one that appears but, Iβve checked, thatβs the same mod as the others
Update 2 : got contacted by the mod, overall sweet guy/gal we agree to disagree and keep the ban up, who said that Lemmy cannot be civil
lol I got similar treatment by those dipshits a few months ago

My dude, you're in a subculture that basically revolves around human art and creativity. Get out of your ass.
bdzer0's claim to be anarchist yet wholly embracing AI is some cognitive dissonance that I cannot wrap my head around.
Genuinely my biggest gripe with their entire instance. How do they not realize that by using LLMs you rob yourself of the chance to gain new skills in art or coding?
Plus the fact that they are literally sucking up to techbro billionaire oligarchs pushing this nonsense by doing so.
I guess the techbro in them overrules the anarchist.
How does running a Chinese model locally on your computer suck up to techbro billionaire oligarchs?
Techbro oligarchs would love nothing more than for you to use AI because it ultimately turns your brain into soup from its sycophantic behaviour. Many cases of AI psychosis have appeared and a lot of stories of suicides spurred on by LLMs have come out.
The billionaires push LLMs on everyone because it'll turn you into political cattle. Locally run models won't help you because the problems don't come from the fact that other models are run on their private servers, it comes from the effects of prolonged AI usage.
I never trust taxi drivers who use an electronic map. Taxi drivers should know all of the streets by heart, and be able to accurately predict road congestion, like they did in the good old days. By using this evil navigation technology, their spatial awareness withers and it is just a shame.
knowing streets and predicting road congestion are not creative acts, that is they are not creating something
Wow, okay. I mean I was being sarcastic with my comment, but now I kinda regret it. Way to cheapen another profession's talents and trade.
nothing in your comment indicated sarcasm. unless you're brand new to the Internet you should know perfectly well that pure-text communication lacks the fidelity to indicate that. this is why so many times over the age of the internet people have tried to add in a way to communicate that either with "/s" or SaRcAsM/mOcKiNg CaSe, or italics sometimes, someone once even tried to make a sarcasm mark
I said nothing to cheapen taxi drivers or their profession. I respect and appreciate it a great deal, especially with examples of them unionizing. That doesn't change the fact that the profession does not create a thing. I find it disingenuous that you would suggest that not calling a profession creative would diminish it.
Garbagemen, for instance, is a profession that is very much worth respecting but also which does not create anything.
What a strange take. That's like saying you couldn't be trotskyist and embrace industry in 1919.

Beep Boop Ban
Lmao the one Europe one in the middle.
Man DBzer0 really sucks. That's the one place I've been mass banned from (although it is because there was a troll using my name, but they never even responded to an unban request), I should check if it applies to the ai dumping communities too.
same here, i checked the modlogs, and it was "troll whabaotism" but i found no original comment/post that triggered it. i think they just banned people who participated in a community they dint like.
