Anti-AI fedi pact? (lemmy.world)
submitted 19 hours ago by damon@lemmy.world to c/fediverse@lemmy.ml

Not looking to debate or stir up anything. But, I will say despite anyone’s thoughts the anti-meta fedi pact at least allowed people to have some information on where instances and people stood on federation with Threads. Some decisions were able to be made based on that information. I think if it doesn’t exist there should be one also regarding AI, which is a polarizing topic especially on fedi. I believe similar to the Threads issue it would allow people to make somewhat informed decisions one way or the other. Are there current lists, sites dedicated to this? If not what are you guys thoughts?

Not federating with meta was a choice that could be made by the admins, just changing a setting in the instance. Slop can be posted to any instance by anyone with an account. If an admin decided to sign an anti-AI pact there's no way they could realistically abide / enforce it.

Not trying to use AI as a moderation tool is definitely up to the admins & mods.

As for a content policy, it could work just the same as any other. Instances have rules against all sorts of content whether it's bigotry, espousal of certain ideologies, abuse, and so on. User posts these things, they get banned by the instance. I don't see how this is different in a technical sense.

They could make a rule saying:

First hand posting of slop is not allowed. Second hand posting is allowed as long as it is sufficiently relevant.
