Idk I like it.

Does not belong in this community though so OP please delete and post it in One of the AI communities.

Interesting observation. I really wish anything we see could be trusted regarding the war rn, but fog of war is one hell of a thing. Let’s hope we will see everything that propaganda has pushed after the war is over.

That’s for the next bot, to take prompts from Reddit and answer with pictures

Honestly this makes me want to start writing bots that can classify text to make some things easier to parse on Lemmy. Ok that’s going in my blacklog.

You sly dog you had me recursin’ for a second

The dream.

They should make Reddit pay 20mio per month per third app they killed off. Sweet revenge.

Mmm yes, let the snake oil flow through you.

They’d do better finally fixing teams. We’re talking years after release, and there’s still no option to change my status behaviour. It forces DnD when I get called, it puts me afk after only 5min, …

Their software does not fundamentally work very well. So even if this bs would be talking about an actual feature, that’s some stone age project management right there.

I mean I know why ppl are scared it will kill off the fediverse, but the only thing that can kill off the fediverse is the Devs. As long as they don’t sell it or start involving a bigger company in the development, we are fine. And pull requests are transparent and therefore not a thread with enough common sense.

I see the risk but I don’t think it’s that imminent.

Interesting

Why the hell washe not awarded his whole fees? Maybe the jury didn’t think he’d been spending that much money? Well what an annoying outcome.

Yeah you never know what their research looked like. Maybe they checked and got a whole bench of oil execs in there.

Sounds like they knew what they were doing.

Not a crypto hater so much as the idea of it goes.

It’s a lot like the rest of the internet: anonymous things moving and interacting can be unpredictable. From what I’ve seen on the dark net, I’d assume we will see the same extremes manifesting in transactions; that is that it will be very helpful for crimes, but also very helpful for ppl who need weed medically but can’t get it legally, ppl who need money because they are pursued politically, or ppl in other dire circumstances.

It’s all very complex, and I think there is a legit good reason for it. That said, I’m not the person to judge what outweighs, I just know it’s far more complex than “crypto bad” or “crypto yes”. Let’s just hope whoever will be in this position is far knowledgeable in that regard than me.

Sincerely, a small developer and 3d artist.

I might be ignorant, but where’s the relevant case law making copyright apply to AI?

I know that copyright definitely applies if you record things 1:1. I also know we’re on the brink of getting new laws regarding AI. But from what I know there’s still nothing that a lower court can safely rely on. And I’m talking EU, as well as US.

If I’m wrong please tell me, I’m excited to learn about what I missed.

Ooooh can we sue them? I’d love to sue them. Shout it out loud that they are purposely manipulating users and investors into thinking how bad Lemmy is and how many ppl have opinions.

As if bbc wouldn’t get you upvoted to oblivion

I feel you, it’s a bit chaotic in here for now.

That said, Lemmy is open source and that means if you really want something to change you can literally write the code yourself and make a pull request, and because we don’t have to appeal to anyone except the users, all options are on the table.

That’s one of the things that this platform’s name is appearently based on. Just FYI; so you and the main developer have something in common :)

Man there’s literally only one thing stopping me from using mastodon and that’s likes.

I know marketing, and shit, and likes sometimes skew things, but without likes any toot is given the same weight, no matter if it’s a good or bad toot. There’s no way for me to see through the chaos that emerges from this.

I know there are reasons not to do this, but I damn well know I’m not the only one, and I’m sure it would make it more appealing for a lot of ppl unfamiliar with mastodon. You could even make it optional so ppl can turn it off and there would be no harm done.

That’s a big yikes and I hope they will find another way…

There are a lot of reasons for this general trend, but let me add my two cents to make a case for the sudden influx of user-opposed changes:

I don’t have a source for this, but I remember that Linus spoke about this on the LTT WAN-Show. Basically, abunch of big silicon valley investors are pulling out of all of the big platforms, therefore leaving them with a huge hole in their profitability. This means, that right now a lot of them are scrambling to scrape together more money over time, so all of those platforms are sustainable.

Obviously this has to observed in conjunction with all of those are trends that are already mentioned by other comments, but this gives more basis as to why now, and why to this extent.

If someone else knows what I’m talking about please add quotes and sources because I don’t like the good old ‘dude trust me’ guarantee one bit.

Development issues

They enabled it, it was broken and the implementation sucked, so they removed it again. But hey if you are pissed about it, feel free to help - you can fork the GitHub project and then fix it yourself :)

Also remember everyone working on it is volunteering. Cut them some slack, all of them have normal jobs as well.

On one hand I agree, on the other hand the original point of contention was price per request, and less people = less requests.

Then again that means less ppl to maybe make enough of a margin to cover development and maintenance costs.

It’s Def gonna be interesting, just a little complex.
