Ah, so now people will be incentivized to spam more bombastic and extreme content to more and more fanatic groups, brilliant.
One suggestion:
Bring in the national guard fully armed and blast the shit out of any rogue militia people threatening the lives of FEMA workers.
In Minecraft of course...
Wow, I'm so shocked!...
Lol, I wouldn't even use MS Office on Windows, Libre Office all the way.
Happy birthday! KDE is my favorite DE and it just keeps getting better every year!
Thanks for your response. Yeah, I think the issue isn't the technology, it's who controls and owns it.
I doubt it would be anywhere near as controversial if it were all fully open source and run by public organizations and communities that were interested in bettering the human experience and reducing mundane work vs maximizing profitability.
I think you're reading too deep into what I was saying. Perhaps I wasn't being clear, my bad if so.
I'm not against AI tools to assist people's work. Using them for grammar/spellcheck, code completion and automated testing, artwork help for filling in repetitive background details/textures, automatically removing background details in pictures like dumpsters or people photo bombing, etc.
What I am against is the grifting, the near religious devotion by tech bros to AI replacing humans in all areas of life, and the fact that the groups and companies controlling almost all of the development of this tech are multi-billion/trillion dollar corpos that don't make all aspects of their tech open source and are 100% motivated by profit.
It's all connected, the reasons why it can't do basic logical reasoning are the same for why it can't replace human art.
It's because neither of those activities are mere pattern recognition and statistical inference, which is all LLMs will ever be.
Of course they don't, logical reasoning isn't just guessing a word or phrase that comes next.
As much as some of these tech bros want human thinking and creativity to be reducible to mere pattern recognition, it isn't, and it never will be.
But the corpos and Capitalists don't care, because their whole worldview is based in the idea that humans are only as valuable as the profitability they generate for a company.
They don't see any value in poetry, or philosophy, or literature, or historical analysis, or visual arts unless it can be patented, trademarked, copyrighted, and sold to consumers at a good markup.
As if the only difference between Van Goh's art and an LLM is the size of sample data and efficiency of an algorithm.
I guess he did Nazi that root he tripped on...
Matrix is great, but yeah, you're gunna struggle to find really active communities depending on what you are focused on.
I can get a few of my close friends on Matrix, but the real issue is most of the FOSS and tech communities I'm a part of are on Discord.
It's rapidly enshitifying though, so might not be long before I leave it for good.
It's my IDE of choice, I love it!
