You mean steal?

Dude Lemmy feels so much more alive. On Reddit I have like 100 comments and 0 Karma and 0 responses. No interaction at all. Every upvoted comment is just some random generic garbage farming for validation. Lemmy is SO much more live!

Reddit is full of Karma farmers.

I still use Reddit for the funny videos and nieche communities I don’t get on Lemmy. But I have to constantly block accounts because they are blatantly farming. Super annoying.

I usually block every account that’s reposting and has more than 100k Karma.

It’s not federated, the developer is specifically against federation. He didn’t even support self-hosting properly and officially, until the community made pullrequests in this regard themselves. Revolt is mainly made to be hosted by the developer himself. Probably just another Discord. Open-sourcing the code doesn’t do anything.

They have contracts. I don’t know the specifics. But that can sometimes amount to 1/3 of the price if they cut the deal after agreeing to the contract.

That would be very expensive

Anything new mentioned in this article?

Please give me a federated, self-hosted Discord alternative! I’m tired of these bullshit platforms.

The US pushing their genetically and medically modified mass produced foods to the world. No thank you! I prefer an apple that’s not waxed, has the size of a melon and has the color of a tomato.

I agree with your sentiment. But I think LLMs are different and something novel that we have never had before: LLMs do not directly encode any IP information directly. It’s like our brain remembering a drawing but we don’t actually own that drawing just because we remember what it looks like. So even if they use pirated data to train the LLM, the result is merely a derivative. Since they don’t redistribute the pirated material, they might get fined for “leeching” here but not for “seeding”, if you understand my anology.

IP in general is very important. It’s the fundamental cornerstone of our society. Without any IP, our society would collapse. But it has limits: You can trademark a brand or a product or a patent. But a drawing style? I find that questionable.

You cannot evade country-wide bans. Federation doesn’t help. That’s not how this works.

If you knew how LLMs work then you’d know that no data of Studio Ghibli’s pictures is stored in it. It’s the equivalent of books citing other books without plagiarising. This is my personal opinion on this. I think the laws are unclear about this too because this is a very novel situation. I expect a lot of change and new legislation in the near future.

So? Just because you can make something fast with tools doesn’t make the art of making it without these tools less impressive or appealing.

It’s like saying photography killed painting. It did in some ways. But in many other ways it didn’t.

Who is making money? OpenAI loses money with every request.

How you even trademark a drawing style?

I’m tired of reading predominantly news articles in this community. I explicitly don’t follow communities related to news so I don’t get bombard with propaganda that I don’t relate to (I’m from Europe). I’ll block your profile now.

I’m not saying that AI can’t be used to detect cancer, but it can’t be used to diagnose any medical condition.

The doctor needs to do the diagnosis. The AI detects it. AI is definitely used like that. And not just somewhere. AI is being used widely in the health sector. So it’s not just some bullshit. It’s actually useful. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

are we really so dumb that we’d take away the power of doctors

You seem to be a bit confused. Nobody said anything about replacing doctors. And insurancr companies weren’t even mentioned.

that’s one big pile of shit. don’t know what else I expected from someone who blindly supports a tool with religious fervor.

How do you even “support” that? What are you saying? Neural networks have neen around for longer than you’ve been alive for. It’s being used fucking everywhere. And not just yesterday but for many years now.

Remove AI (neural networks) from existence and you wouldn’t have the following:

• They are being used in avation for anti-aircraft collision systems since the early 2010s.
• It is used extensively in Email spam filtering.
• Tagging of your photos.
• Search Engine auto-complete.
• Banking transaction monitoring against tax evasion and money laundering.
• Elevator scheduling in large buildings.
• Spell checker in text editors.
• Self-checkout in grocery stores.
• Traffic lights optimization in cities.
• Spotify recommendations
• Battery optimization in phones
• Noise cancellation in voice calls
• Retail store shelf layout
• Weather forecasting

You’re just completely delusional and mad because you read something about LLMs on the internet. You’re the one who’s religiously attacking something so ambiguous and ubiquitous while not having any technical understanding about the underlying technology.

Explain to me how transformers, RNNs, or CNNs work and we can keep this discussion up.

It can detect cancer. The need for double checking or verification is just that: double checking and verification. But the AI detected it. You know what “detect” means right?

It can also find chemical compounds for medicine. It needs to be tested like every other medicine found by humans. But it was found by the AI nontheless.

AI can make discoveries in space that no human or discriminative algorithm would ever be able to do. Do you know how big space is? And how much data is available for inference? Exponential discriminative algorithms (or even worse humans) would take billions of years finding things that generative algorithms can find in hours. It’s an incredibly valuable tool. More valuable than the telescopes themselves.

Your comment shows that you have no technical understanding of the technology. You project LLMs on AI in general and don’t realize that AI has been around being productive for the past 50 years. AI is the next step of evolution. Like fire, agriculture or electricity. It will make life so much faster, more efficient and more productive. It has already enabled us to accomplish and discover amazing things and it will only accelerate.

So why did the commenter generalize to AI then?
