What AI haters don’t get is that the people fanning the flames of AI(LLM’s) hate are the same people who want you to buy their subscriptions, because they know the only place the real damage occurs is in OpenSource communities.

AI use for Open Source projects is arguably the one use case that benefits everyone, plus it’s a sweet irony against corps and their locked-down proprietary software. Denouncer will loudly hawk that LLMs will make it trivial to circumvent the GPL, but they fail to mention that the pendulum swings both ways; with LLMs, it’s now easier than ever to reverse engineer proprietary systems and programs, recently there was a similar discourse on lemmy due to the mario kart wii decompilation.

They want loud people to sow division into OpenSource communities so that true opensource LLMs solutions are shunned and never reach maturity, corporate meanwhile is unaffected.

it isnt about the total DC its about lasting damage in the affected people and environment

Is this loss?

i think we lemmites should do our due diligence and start shitposting on c/politics

c/cursedcomments

50 years later and we are still asking “To C or not to C, that is the question” personally i dont like nanny compilers telling me how to write, warnings are much more helpful to nudge me in the right direction.

good spouses don’t let their SO suffer ADs

are those shorts playing on the dash?

shh… be a bit more vague before the “L’s bad” crowd shows up

clearly you don’t know how Mullvad works

assume your hypothetical sheet of paper has thickness 1u; on fold iteration 1: thickness of the paper is doubled, 21u = 2u on fold iteration 2: thickness gets doubled again l, 22u = 4u

this pattern continues for all subsequent iteration and by the seventh iteration the thickness of the paper is 2⁷ * 1u = 128u

hence by the seventh iteration, assuming you have managed to reach this far, you will be trying to fold something that is 128 times thicker than your first fold.

also whether it be DIN A4 or DIN A1 it doesnt matter, the ability to fold is dependent on the thickness of the paper, which is the same.

Do elaborate more on the 3D printing stuff

The assertion that lemmy users call Blockchain and AI a grift is not without evidence(just browse around on any thread related to the topic) people calling QC a grift is more nuanced and something I have picked up on, you could make the case when ‘it happens’ lemmites would call QC a grift.

people will say QC is a grift when it eventually becomes commercially viable(Just look at the second level comments here)

thats why I think there should be a fsf led effort to make some version of FOSS agentic AI(i know its just a marketing term).

I hate that the ability to just sit at the computer and go

Hey, can you go through the hundreds of images i have in my Downloads folder, and transfer the images in which i appear in the center to this directory, also make it so in the future any pdf with a specific header goes into this directory will M$ exclusive feature.

amen

didn’t meta and apple try turning VR into the ‘Next big thing’ very recently, i mean they got distracted with LLMs but they could always try again.

I still dont think blockchain; the tech itself is a grift, it does what it promised to do(not BTC, other coins that improved on it, BTC itself has turned into a big game of chicken), has uses beyond its initial purpose. Its just that the tech attracted grifters like flies, and their actions were transparent(yet people still fell for it)

I am not against any of the tech i listed, i think they all are neat and quite interesting to study and use.

you have probably not been around the forums to realise why i put it there, QC discussion these days are leaning towards the it’s a grift/ it will never be viable territory. This is mostly in large part due to M$ and their claims. there is also some subtle fear mongering going on with the recent push towards quantam resistant encryption standards.

So i am not calling QC a grift, I am calling out that whenever it becomes viable for the companies that are researching it to rent their computers to consumers, people will start calling it the next grift.

wasn’t there a recent fiasco regarding some company called donut and their so called solidstate battery?

So what innovation would socialism turn into a grift?
