I also noticed that when Lemmy links do appear it’s often to a random federated instance, not the original source.

Why can’t you just download them and delete the copy in Google photos?

No one person can control everything.

Doesn’t seem to be stopping you from trying!

Eh, I think you’re projecting. He literally owned his instance. He was playing with his own ball at his own house and you got “butthurt” because he didn’t want to play with you.

It’s no secret that a lot of people are attracted to Lemmy because they felt Reddit mods were too overbearing, but some of us like Lemmy because we didn’t think Reddit mods were doing enough about the overbearing users.

He said “this” experiment, not “the fediverse” which I interpreted to mean his instance (or perhaps Lemmy).

That said, I’m honestly curious what do you care about his “toxicty” if he’s not an admin of your instance? You don’t seriously believe you have a right to dictate what he does with his own hardware do you?

I’m glad we agree.

What did you interpret the premise to be? I read the post when it was up, and it read to me like OP was saying essentially that too many toxic users and not enough admins willing to stand up to them make the overall experience not fun.

EDIT: Which is accurate in my mind at least when it comes to Lemmy

Sounds like a major perk of that instance to me.

Using a camera on public property in the EU is broadly very legal.

I love the notion that even Twitter users had too much empathy and the platform wasn’t getting Nazified fast enough on it’s own so they had to program a robot to go around and spread propaganda.

Not sure if you are looking for blogs but I this guy is a good writer: https://rys.io/en/index.html

Hilarious that that account’s made a single comment pushing back on classic lemmy hysteria/paranoia and then apparently left the platform.

I think quote posts are undesirable for the reasons you mentioned but I have to accept that it will be huge for adoption, and the flip side (promoting others work in a positive light) is also going to be really great.

Oh yeah absolutely, but I also think the goal of the AI companies is not to actually create a functioning AI that could “do a job 20% as good as a human, but 90% cheaper”, but to sell fancy software, whether it works or not, and leave the smaller companies holding the bag after they lay off their workforce.

Right? It actually makes me feel insane that the topic of “humans working less” is never in the selling points of these products.

Honestly I suspect that rather than some nefarious capitalist plot to enslave humanity, it is just more evidence that the software can’t actually do what the people selling it to big corporations claim it can do.

This bit at the end, wow:

Gartner still expects that by 2028 about 15 percent of daily work decisions will be made autonomously by AI agents, up from 0 percent last year.

Agentic AI is wrong 70% of the time, but even assuming a human employee is barely correct most of the time and wrong 49% of the time, is it really still more efficient to replace them?

I like where your head’s at, but Mastodon’s system of verification seems much easier to me and doesn’t rely on a third party.

For YouTube tutorial videos I have no issue with relying on GPT, but I think it’s important to recognize that the translation of art is art. I don’t feel good about the idea of something without a soul or perspective interpolating a work of art from one culture and language into another that might be wildly different from where it started.

That all said, I think Crunchyroll and anyone else using AI art without disclosing it absolutely should be honest about it.

Lemmy does feel more and more like 4chan every day…
