Yes exactly thank you for pointing it out. He's not referring to people upset about slop or propaganda or CSAM on X, he is just doing more marketing and pretending that LLMs will somehow stop being chatbots and magically transform into something else that kills us all.

Good point!

Changes nothing lol

Interesting take, isn't Lemmy less democratic since admins have total control?

Lemmy is 50% people who hate Reddit for giving the volunteer mods too much power to shape their communities, and 50% people who hate Reddit for not giving the volunteer mods enough power to shape their communities.

And no they don't get along here either.

It seems we agree on the facts, but not on what "useful" or "helpful" means. I honestly have never, ever considered deciding on what food to serve guests be "labor", but in the interests of replying in good faith I asked an LLM the exact prompt you gave. It gave a long, detailed reply, but here is the first part labeled "1. Welcome / Cocktail Reception":

Mini prosciutto‑wrapped melon balls • Brie & caramelized onion tartlets (store‑bought puff pastry) • Stuffed mushroom caps (herb cream cheese + breadcrumbs)

I want you to consider that this not actually helpful in the slightest, and is fact creating more work. Consider: is there a vendor nearby that has these items as an an option for event planning? Is this a recipe that even exists? Does this information further my mission of having a wedding in any conceivable way?

Those paragraphs are what I'm talking about. The author fails to explain what the LLM actually did that was helpful. It's like saying "I used ChatGPT to plan my wedding menu" without any more details. What did it actually do? Why was it helpful? Those are the things I continue to not understand about these tools.

I recently asked a friend to remove their meta glasses while we were out to eat. It was awkward for a moment but they were understanding, and we had a good talk about privacy and tech after.

A common thread with these stories seems to be that the person experienced a deep emotional wound before the AI stepped in.

It may sound obvious to those here, but it important to recognize that they aren't providing any real companionship. They are preying on vulnerable people the way casinos tell you they can solve your money troubles.

I'm relatively a Linux newbie and "open app store and click install" couldn't have been more user friendly to me, so I'm very excited by it all

Bazzite has been the most plug and play distro I've ever used!
