For me it's just generic influencer dislike. Wouldn't go as far as hate though. It's just that I pre-emptively don't care about what they have to say. Clickbaity titles "this is why..." (without explaining why) certainly don't help.

Full disclosure: I'm only responding at this headline and the blurp posted here. I haven't seen the - oh lord, 3 hours?! - video. But I'm sure it will be very interesting for someone.

Ehm. So?

Just because [bad people group X] think that [bad thing Y] is bad, doesn't mean they're wrong.

There are good reasons to be anti AI (creators rights, for a starter , and at the same time, it's not going to go away, and it will also improve our lives in ways that we cannot fathom right now. It'll need (better) regulation for sure.

Having said that, I really don't think inflammatory posts like these (Y is bad because associated with X) are going make things get better.

If you want to be pedantic about it - if the NSA, or any such agency demands to place a [backdoor of any sort] in an American company's datacenter, they have to comply.

So, no, they (meta, Google, etc) won't be handing over the data knowingly. But those devices placed there for sure aren't running Minecraft servers.

We recognize that our business is critically dependent on sustaining the trust of customers, countries, and governments across Europe. We respect European values, comply with European laws, and actively defend Europe's cybersecurity. Our support for Europe has always been – and always will be – steadfast.

None of that matters, since they still have to comply to American laws, which means they have to give access to European data if the US government requests it.

It's kinda like good guy Hitler, because he killed Hitler.

Trump's major achievement might be that the rest of the world starts relying less on the US.

In other words, clickbait?

That's the kind of nuanced response I expected from lemmy about something becoming less left wing ;)

 

I have received several spam messages from one of your users, sognar@aggregatet.org .

I'm probably not the only one they did this to. @admin@aggregatet.org, please investigate and take care.

So... How can you possibly justify that start button?

[–] admin@lemmy.my-box.dev 27 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Yes it is. Although I personally have far less moral objections to it.

To elaborate:
OpenAI scraped data without permission, and then makes money from it.

Deepseek then used that data (even paid openai for it), trained a model on that data, and then releases that model for anyone to use.

While it's still making use of "stolen data" (that's a whole semantics discussion I won't get into right now), I find it far more noble than the former.

Thank you for your insightful comment, it tells me a lot. Mostly about you, but still.

I only know the guy from the thumbnails and dead eyes. But this really feels like reaching for a justification to hate.

If you've seen (also past tense) any movie by, for example, Bryan Singer, you have consumed art made by a pedophile.

I'm not defending him (I honestly don't care about him), all I'm saying is that without any context, these kind of statements are kinda cheap and meaningless.

I'd say that federation is the core principle of the network, so centralisation by piling all the users and content onto one server is very undesirable.
(also looking at you, lemmy.world)

 

In a blog post released on Monday, VP of Privacy Sandbox Anthony Chavez said that Google is “proposing an updated approach that elevates user choice” by allowing users to select whether or not they want to enable cookies on Chrome and adjust that choice “at any time.”

“Instead of deprecating third-party cookies, we would introduce a new experience in Chrome that lets people make an informed choice that applies across their web browsing,” Chavez wrote.
