"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- No misinformation.
- No NSFW/NSFL content without being labeled NSFW or being in an appropriately-labeled spoiler tag.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- No AI-generated content. If you want to post examples of AI failing hillariously, there are other communities for that like !ArtificialIgnorance@lemmy.ca .
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.
You can help the mod team by making your reports detailed.
Effective reports:
- "The third image is a well-known anti-semitic trope"
- "Claiming that 'agentic AI' can outperform humans at all jobs is misinformation"
Less effective reports:
- "Breaks rules"
- "Misinformation"

I would like to be the first to thank them for this move. It's going to do wonderful things for the Fediverse.
If you mean ex-Reddit users, even if they were pissed off enough to leave Reddit (they never will be) and knew about Lemmy (they don't), there's no guarantee they would switch (to a normie, anything not made by a multi-million dollar company is "sketchy")
If you mean fewer Reddit screenshots... eh, I also don't think that would be an improvement honestly
Yeah maybe we get ads and investors and bots aswell! I'm glad we rely on unpaid labor to fix all this! /s
Nobody is being forced to code the platform or host an instance. Most who do it are doing it out of love or genuine interest or passion or whatever else
Yeah, and people will burn out from this, as have countless reddit mods. All the while commercial Fediverse instances might take over.
That is possible, I do not disagree
They still have real lives in the real world and their own things happening, and need sleep, relaxation, recreation, family time.
I do not disagree at all. Your comment also does not invalidate what I said in any way.
I'm not suggesting it does. Lemmy will need more help, financially and "for the love," on the influx.
Some people actually enjoy building these things and do it for the love of the game
Let's see for how long they'll still like it. 🫠
