Two things pop into mind
- Power hungry mods always do stupid things that drive people away from their communities
- Why was anyone with a C-Suite title a mod of an online community?

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's not like they have a real job that requires them to do anything, so they gotta find something to fill the void
actually... probably true
Spot on with the AI C-Suite description.
The C-suite is just a bunch of ex-rich kids who never wanted to do any actual work to keep society moving. If all the marketing departments disappeared in the world, we would be significantly better off as a species.
They're just rent-seeking parasites. Is it time for pinata economics?
My ex kept the baseball bat, and I'm fresh out of sticks, so I guess I'll have to improvise.
How do you get all the candy into the baseball bat tho?
Oh, that isn't remotely why we had the baseball bat.
i hate to break it to you but Discord the company is sending everything that goes through all servers and all private DMs through LLMs: this is done as a part of their trust and safety system. it's right in the privacy policy that they use OpenAI
This is a good argument, but more for not using Discord than it not mattering if they put in a chatbot nobody wants.
Rapist mindset.
I mean yeah he's c-suite
"the Discord"? Is that how people refer to Discord groups/communities/chatrooms/whatever now? Not "the Discord group" but just "the Discord"? (genuinely asking because this is the first I've seen it)
Yeah. It's been like that for ages.
Have you never heard "join our discord"?
I've heard "join the discord" pretty often too
TIL! It is shorter. Makes sense.
Yeah, but not "the Discord".
Within context, it's usually clear what is meant, e.g. the singular discord that is associated with a Reddit sub/community.
Damn, and anthropic is supposed to be the least shitty of the western LLM actors.
Even if that was true, it's still kind of picking the friendliest supervillain.
