Author admits they don’t ask for donations and then use the lack of donation as evidence for their arguments. Amazing logic there.

Also whatever the fuck this is

By the way, next time you see a request for donations at any project, think about the reasoning in the head of the product owner.

Some of us ask for donations because we know people don’t actually think about it. Fuck you for implying we’re closer to being sellouts than you are.

This blog gives me right-libertarian vibes with its promotion of “open - core” shite and how focused it is on money.

I’m just waiting for all those gnashing their teeth at this to turn around and tell me “vote blue no matter who” in a couple of years/months.

Oh yeah cause it went so well for Chile.

Coups can be resisted.

There’s people (like me) who are just wired like night owls. I can sleep during the day no problem. It’s just sad that the society expects most people to be “morning people” and just randomly expects some to be able to handle the night shifts, instead of helping people self-select.

Yes lemmy can serve as a good replacement for a picture sharing group

Machine vision is very similar tech

I wasn’t trying to win anything. You argued that all technology under capitalism is unethical. So since clearly we can conceive some things as worse than others, I was trying to distill where the difference lies according to you.

But it’s rich that you claim I don’t care about anything you had to say when you butted in unprompted to grandstand. Looks like reddit was inside you all along

Ok, so photography is as bad in your eyes as LLMs I take it?

Every technology we use in the modern day was produced under capitalism

That’s a perfect example of what I always say, you’re not mad a GenAI as a technology, you’re mad at Capitalism.

Generative AI can have a lot of great uses to detect and prevent unethical content online. Particularly CSAM. Some forms of it are already used to protect some of your favourite lemmy instances.
