8·5 months agoPeople’s fucking speech patterns are being affected by big brother and they are genuinely just ok with it. I don’t know how to explain to someone that changing the way you talk changes the way you think and you are letting corpos do that to you. AND THEN THEY GO AND DEFEND IT.

2·5 months agoWhat are you talking about with free speech absolutists? I think you are trying to reach a different audience than Lemmy because I think most people here think that’s stupid.
This is such obvious bullshit lmao. I’m about as anti AI as they come but come the fuck on you must have had friends with schools that started summer break at different dates of the year? Or that other countries exist with different schooling requirements? I know some contries are better but everyone besides places like france probably have students using LLMs.
Especially since we still don’t know how information preservation works in a black hole. There are ideas yes but we still aren’t sure if any of them are even right.

Not really. My mom and step dad were Bahí for a big part of my childhood and I think that the teachings are really nice and I liked the community but I can’t say I ever actually belived it. We ended up no longs continuing after we moved.

Technology@lemmy.zip•ChatGPT dissidents, the students who refuse to use AI: ‘I couldn’t remember the last time I had written something by myself’English
9·5 months agoLike, we fucking get it: You’re a technophobe and hate technology.
I don’t think you get it or have even really bothered to read the articles if that is your take away.
This is coming from a person who would probably get a gen 1 brain chip if they were actually useful like the people making them say they would be.
Its not that I hate technology its that LLMs are effectively being forced upon people in a way where their bosses are literally telling them that they have to use the technology. There are genuinely companies that care more about their employees using LLMs than actually doing their job well because they are so invested into LLMs.
There’s also evidence coming out that suggests that long term use of LLMs is not good for brain health because it involves offloading so much menial thinking. Without use your brain atrophes and you probably won’t even notice it because you are your brain.
It will likely be a disaster for the already precarious state of literacy in the general public when people can just require to have the message re written simpler if they can’t understand what a message is saying so they have no incentive to improve.

14·5 months agoCan you not understand not learning how to think for yourself is bad? Or did the AI you use to run your life tell you not thinking anymore is more efficient?

1·5 months agoPeople have deluded themselves into thinking that the Fediverse is so small no government entity cares enough to set up a simple instance that just sits there and sucks up data. It might not even be being used at the moment but the moment they want to it would be easier than most people realize to connect their account to an individual.

3·6 months agoUnless you start paying them at the same level YouTube is no. The problem with peertube adoption by big creators is almost entirely monitary because if they were able to make money with it they would solve the other problems that come from it.

1·6 months agoIf it’s good and runs on Linux I’ll probably get it. I love BF4 and nothing really has played the same.
