"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Or Usenet. Or BBSs. But one could argue they were all social media. I think the difference is the control that is being exerted by people in power. And that’s likely due to the audience size. It becomes an effective way to guide people’s ideas, decisions, etc. Facebook got there. Reddit got there. Lemmy could.
Who would be the ones to do it in lemmy? People are switching to federated options to guard against that.
It’s resistant for sure. But say one instance becomes dominant and controls most traffic? It’s still possible however unlikely.
