What do you think towns and cities are

I hope not, it was a toxic shit hole filled with complete fucking losers.

That would destroy the already limited content of the fedi. It’s like people hate content discovery for some reason.

Fixed

I’ve never actually tried this but feel like rm should have a built in warning specifically for that command letting them know they’ve been trolled and have a y/N prompt.

Decentralized dating apps is a good way to make women feel incredibly unsafe. Not only is the fedi a more techy nerd crowd, it also has massive moderation issues. It’s one bad thing to spam an instance with CP. It’s even worse when you can make a fake profile to stalk someone with zero accountability and potentially put them in physical danger, while also being unbannable. I’m sure a rapist/stalker/murderer would totally be stopped by defederating their instance, right? They’d just spam multiple accounts for their target.

Moderation is extremely important here, and so is attracting a crowd which makes or breaks it, which the fedi is 100% not going to ever do. How would the fedi and developers respond if there was even a single rape/murder as a result of their platform and weak moderation? The whole thing would probably collapse.

Meet up groups are similar but not as targeted. That wouldn’t be a bad idea though, since I guess someone leaving up a poster in town or something is kind of a form of that.

ML is machine learning. It means they love teaching AI to overthrow the illuminati government lizard people. Can’t believe u didn’t know that, kinda embarrassing

Sees some use in Mali and for some websites about machine learning. Use is relatively rare elsewhere.

How is lemmy.ml pro china?

We don’t believe that at all, we believe privacy is a human right. Also you’re just objectively wrong about LLMs. Offline uncensored LLMs already exist, and will perpetually exist. We don’t defend tools doing harm, we acknowledge it.

You miss the point. My point is that if you want to have a consistent view point, you need to acknowledge and defend the harmful sides. Encryption can objectively cause harm, but it should absolutely still be defended.

If it has the information, why not? Why should you be restricted by what a company deems appropriate. I obviously picked the bomb example as an extreme example, but that’s the point.

Just like I can demonize encryption by saying I should be allowed to secretly send illegal content. If I asked you straight up if encryption is a good thing, you’d probably agree. If I mentioned its inevitable bad use in a shocking manner, would you defend the ability to do that, or change your stance that encryption is bad?

To have a strong stance means also defending the potential harmful effects, since they’re inevitable. It’s hard to keep values consistent, even when there are potential harmful effects of something that’s for the greater good. Encryption is a perfect example of that.

Do gun manufacturers get in trouble when someone shoots somebody?

Do car manufacturers get in trouble when someone runs somebody over?

Do search engines get in trouble if they accidentally link to harmful sites?

What about social media sites getting in trouble for users uploading illegal content?

Mozilla doesn’t need to host an uncensored model, but their open source AI should be able to be trained to uncensored. So I’m not asking them to host this themselves, which is an important distinction I should have made.

Which uncensored LLMs exist already, so any argument about the damage they can cause is already possible.

Anything that prevents it from my answering my query. If I ask it how to make me a bomb, I don’t want it to be censored. It’s gathering this from public data they don’t own after all. I agree with Mozilla’s principles, but also LLMs are tools and should be treated as such.

As much as I love Mozilla, I know they’re going to censor it (sorry, the word is “alignment” now) the hell out of it to fit their perceived values. Luckily if it’s open source then people will be able to train uncensored models

I’m reading Dune and House of Leaves right now, what books are you reading rn?

this is pretty cool, but I never understood the appeal of “hey guys im reading this book”

I just subject that to the first person I talk to at work instead lol

this guy just learned about discord general chats lol

they’re all this bad, and also they’re absolutely dogshit for open source software so I have no idea why people make them

Damn tell that to literally every single Linux WM lol

It’s 2023 and Apple is a trillion dollar company, and they still don’t have window snapping/tiling in OSX. I don’t have anything positive to say about their OS lol.

Not to mention it takes like 10 seconds to load and has completely random predictions
