Not looking to debate or stir up anything. But, I will say despite anyone’s thoughts the anti-meta fedi pact at least allowed people to have some information on where instances and people stood on federation with Threads. Some decisions were able to be made based on that information. I think if it doesn’t exist there should be one also regarding AI, which is a polarizing topic especially on fedi. I believe similar to the Threads issue it would allow people to make somewhat informed decisions one way or the other. Are there current lists, sites dedicated to this? If not what are you guys thoughts?
You’re going to have a pretty tough time with DB0. I don’t think any of us want AI bots posting fake posts or lazy slop bullshit, but many of us just see LLMs as a tool. It’s not the technology’s fault that a bunch of rich assholes want to drive the economy to the ground over it.
Yeah the criticism tends to go to extremes here sometimes. I remember one open source project being criticized just because some AI assisted commits were added and people were saying that it should be forked and shit just because of that.
I’m definitely very against the way companies try to shove it down our throats and make use of it in ridiculous ways and destroy the environment by putting no limits to its use, but the problem as usual is the socioeconomic system behind the tool and not the tool itself.
