A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Notepad++ is just, a top tier app
People are allowed to want what they're comfortable with to not be riddled with llms
TBH, tech companies showing AI down our throats is still no good, open-source alternative existing or not.
DRM wasn't good either, tech companies are just really creative at making their products worse.
On the subject of Foss and AI - one of the G summer of code projects is about integrating an AI voice platform into Neochat and I'm somewhere between bemused and amused by the lack of reaction from de KDE/Plasma community
I would be happy if more and normal people were actually mad at ai.
I would be happy with more nuanced takes on AI.
Instead of just "All AI is worse than the devil and is killing babies" or "All AI is the pinnacle of humanity and is the next step in our evolution".
LLMs have a place, but it is not in every product imaginable.
When someone can produce an LLM that doesn't use more power than entire small nations to spew out bullshit, then we can start inviting nuance. Unfortunately, we have to be pragmatic here; and the consequences of lots of GenAI are way worse than returning to no GenAI.
Obviously, this doesn't include pattern recognition or protein folding AI.
That also misses the point. If we want to pull the world out of poverty and into prosperity we're going to need an astonishing amount of power. The only key is to make power that is sustainable so that things requiring a lot of power aren't given a second thought. The thing you're mad at are massive corporations putting the cart waaaaaay before the horse. And yes, please be mad at them for that.
Local LLMs are a thing, so why don't you start with your nuance, hmm?
Is it because LLMs are worse than the devil and are killing babies?
That local LLM?
Still uses that power. Still used the power for training. Still exploited workers. Swing and a miss.
Fingers crossed it'll end up like crypto. Here to stay in the world of finance, no longer in every product that never needed it.
Normal people are losing themselves in AI. I’ve seen multiple instances of people using LLM to fact check someone. Endless “uhh, but I asked ChatGPT and it said blablabla” making me lose faith in humanity.
I don’t keep the kind of company that goes “well chatGPT says” if I’m being honest. Though I imagine that’s more of a “yet” statement.
Yeah it's become impossible to have philosophical discussions, although this truly does seem limited to the virtual world (i.e. via text, online, etc.). If I were to go have some drinks with a friend and they busted out some LLM to take part in our discussion I would chastise them endlessly for it.
Honestly its not much different from a google search and reading some nonsense written by someone who has no authority in the subject. As long as it reinforces their belief itll be true in their eyes
I'm chill with the amount of ai duckduckgo has, because its not in your face and it can be easily disabled.
Yeah but duckduckgo has loads of adds now, too
last I checked you can disable that? or has that changed?
It's all fun and games until ai is mad at you
Next version of npp should reference this comic.
