"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.
Summary:
I downvoted pro-AI comments in a post in leftymemes community. It was LLM generated polandball comic (Which is objectively pathetic as fuck) that showed up on my feed, blocked couple of users who I thought were unhinged, and have blocked the whole instance on my client after realizing how rabid these morons are.
I didn't go looking for AI posts like a vigilante.
One user in question got miffed for being downvoted and banned me from places they moderate.
Test.
I can't even imagine the mental gymnastics required to be both "pro-labor" and "pro-AI". I mean, yeah I'm all about workers rights...but imagine how much money my boss could make if he just replaced us all with robots?
So in an ideal world we would have ai/robots doing labour jobs, while humans are free to do what they want and enjoy life without the wage slavery to survive...
But we do not live in such a world and instead, ai is doing all the creative fun bits and humans are loosing their jobs and not getting any support to live... 🙃
AI Evangelists are cringe people.
I saw some freak at a prostest passing out flyers saying AI was sentient and we need to give it legal rights.
These people are delusional, incapable of living in reality.
Yeah the mental gymnastics of some of these ai moderators is hitting Reddit level of cringe. Downvoted and blocked some ai slop communities that came across my timeline and had one butthurt genius block me from a few places they mod.
Ai bros are just the worst insecure shitheads out there. Absolutely worse than crypto bros ever were.
I blocked the whole community after seeing bullshit like "no rule against AI means you must imply that any criticism of AI is against the rules"
I have been debating whether or not to block the entire db0 instance because of its pro-AI stance. It's weird to me that a self-proclaimed anarchist instance is so pro-GenAI garbage. Even the reasoning of being pro-AI because it's anti-copyright is dumb as fuck.
Yeah they see themselves as “seizing the means of production” but they aren’t doing shit. You aren’t a freedom fighter using Ai. You are just another tool in their machine and you are giving them more power.
!yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Uhhhh lemmy.dbzer0.com is the pro-AI instance.
Yes, but also quite anarchist(at least from what I have seen) and this is more abuse of power in my opinion.
Ha! Was curious and just checked - they recently banned me from the same communities. I certainly don't go looking for AI stuff to downvote but probably have done so a couple times if I see it in /all and it's egregiously bad. Guess that was too much for them.
Imagine being so incredibly fragile that you ban folks because they downvoted a post on a site where karma doesn't exist and you had an AI create the content you posted.
I think as more people get sick of AI bullshit, the cheerleaders are seeing the reaction and thinking it's some dark conspiracy when it's just folks saying "Hmm, that's kinda crappy, isn't?"
