Interesting. Why would more manipulative people and ones with more focus on self-interest use AI more than other people? Because they’re more likely to take shortcuts while doing stuff? Or is there any other direct benefit for them?
A software developer and Linux nerd, living in Germany. I’m usually a chill dude but my online persona doesn’t always reflect my true personality. Take what I say with a grain of salt, I usually try to be nice and give good advice, though.
I’m into Free Software, selfhosting, microcontrollers and electronics, freedom, privacy and the usual stuff. And a few select other random things as well.

Is this just your personal opinion? Or did any expert have a look at it and analyze the video? Surely there must be some third-party fact-check out there?! I mean not that TRT is a trustworthy news outlet to begin with. But it’d be nice to cite some source, not just do wild speculation.


Ahem, what next-generation LLMs? The ones they keep promising and fail to deliver? Seems we’re at gradual improvement these days. ChatGPT 5 isn’t sentient or AGI like they claimed it would be but merely marginally better than version 4. I have no doubt it’s gonna be the same with version 6 and 7 in the next years. And it’s far from being able to program computer code at the level I do?! We’d need some insane scientific breakthrough. Other than that I think it’s going to replace callcenter workers, designers and artists, cashiers… And I suppose robotics is looking promising. Maybe restocking the shelves can be done by robots in the future. We already have a lot of automation in logistics.


Nice. Though a bit of context would be helpful. What is a z-score? Where is this from, and where can I read more?
Well, diversity is the central idea behind the entire Fediverse… We get many different perspectives on the same content. That includes many individual instances and individual software. The opposite of that would be no diversity. One platform and one software, like Reddit or Facebook or most big commercial services. And we have projects in between, both federated and non-federated, even crypto-based, which combine many aspects into one platform.
I don’t see how that post would be a good example to advocate for the approach. It has 23 comments, quite average compared to other posts. So it’d still end up with a similar ranking…


Oh, hey! I suppose technically you’re on MBin? But yeah, now that I’m aware… I regularly see kbin.earth pop up somewhere.


Btw, this is a very old article. PieFed is lightyears ahead from where it was one and a half years ago. KBin ceased to exist. (Edit: And is continued with MBin now.) And I didn’t follow Lemmy’s development so I can make any statement there.


Ah, thanks. And are those people then connected to the same network and can follow each other, or are those entirely seperate? Pardon my lack of knowledge about Bluesky and ATProto.


I think you can follow Peertube channels and write comments but not post videos. And you can’t access Mastodon nor Pixelfed.
Lemmy is centered on the concept of ActivityPub groups. While Mastodon etc are about individuals, they don’t use that concept (with their toots) and since following accounts isn’t implemented in Lemmy, there is no way to properly interact.
Though there are other software projects. MBin combines both. And Piefed wants to get there, eventually. They already hook into a few more things, but Mastodon or Pixelfed accounts currently aren’t properly supported either. But Mastodon people can write replies to our posts.
It’s a bit complicated. And I think ActivityPub is fairly low level and broad (I think). So it’s really down to the individual implementation and whether two projects agree to do something in a compatible way. And write code for the specifics of some content types.


What exactly is an “equitable tokenizer” and how does it work?


Since we have Mississippi as an example… Why not just look how it turned out for the people there? Do or don’t they have a communications platform now that connects them to a network of other people? I feel that’s way more helpful than discussing what should be discussed, or talking about theoretical details.


Nice. This is the one that supposedly comes with open data sets, training data and everything, and it’s a true “open-source” model. Seems it’s avalable in 7B and 70B.
Ahem, no. This isn’t about cancelling or silencing people. The real issue is a full-blown humanitarian crisis and a war. Muting random regular people might seem like an idea, but it’s going to do nothing for those people and the issue at hand. It’s not great that we have all opinions, but you got to deal with it. Block them, that’s why the programmers gave you that tool. And/or switch instances. And report content you deem inappropriate. And be vocal about doing the right thing.
That is for regular users. I think mods should be held to higher standards. I think we shoud discuss whether we want to keep those. Unfortunately there isn’t a good way to deal with this. There are no elections or something… That’s not how the Fediverse works. Maybe it should… Bit until then, you yourself vote by leaving those specific communities and instances. And we all do that.


I guess the average unpaid AIStudio, ChatGPT or Grok records all your interactions and private data as well and might use it for future purposes. The Chinese might be way more relaxed with people’s data, though. I tried various AI services. I try not to put in personal data in general. And I’m more careful with Chinese apps and services.
Ah. My instance reports the last activity from lemm.ee from 45mins ago… So that’d be June 30th, 00:14 Estonian time. And the main page forwards to join-lemmy.org now. Looks like the shutdown to me.
Well… it’s 10 before midnight here. I’m pretty sure a bit east from me it’s the 30th already. Not so much in the west. But I don’t know where lemm.ee was located.
It’s 30th of June. Lemm.ee is shutting down now.


This material would also fit !fuck_ai@lemmy.world
Thanks, that sounds reasonable. Especially the focus/attention.
Maybe it’s the same as with other games or computer games… Some people also really get something out of fantasy achievements and when they win and feel like the main character… in a weird way…
