If you think it’s supposed to be predictive you’re perhaps confusing it with futureology, which is a more scientific field.

Fearing AI because of what you saw in “The Terminator” is like fearing sleeping pills because of what you saw in “Nightmare on Elm Street.”

There are people who want AI, crypto, and IoT things. If there weren’t then there’d be no money to be made in selling it.

There have been many systems developed over the years for handling decentralized data storage, decentralized user identities, and decentralized decision-making. There are excellent options out there for all this stuff.

IMO the problem is that there’s a huge “not invented here” problem, combined with a popular “ew, I don’t want to be associated with that technology (or more accurately with the group behind that technology)” reflex that has nothing to do with the technology itself. So projects like the Fediverse keep reinventing the wheel over and over, and whenever a project manages to do something right it’s rare for the other projects to abandon their own implementations to borrow from the best.

In my experience the vast majority of posts about Elon Musk are from people who hate him and are tired of hearing about him.

There is a certain amount of irony when people respond to a comment that mentions AI with a reflexive “AI is just a fancy autocomplete!” Without any relevance to the larger context.

But it’s yet another opportunity to post a comment about how much we hate cybertrucks and the people who own them, so up it goes!

From the project page:

The purpose of this project is not to restrict or ban the use of AI in articles, but to verify that its output is acceptable and constructive, and to fix or remove it otherwise.

There’s nothing fundamentally wrong with LLMs. Users just need to know their capabilities and limitations and use them correctly. Just like any other tool.

If I could get glasses that told me “that guy enthusiastically greeting you by name right now is Marty, you last met him in university in such-and-such class eight years ago” I would pay any amount of money for that.

“Doxing people” and “recognizing people” have a pretty blurry border.

I expect if you follow the references you’d find one of them to be one of those “if Earth was a grain of sand” analogies.

People like laughing at AI but usually these silly-sounding answers accurately reflect the information the search returned.

If you want to get away from the Lemmy codebase entirely I can vouch that mBin works quite nicely. I’ve been on fedia.io for months now and only once or twice hit some kind of technical problem, which was resolved quickly.
