Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.

7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.

The firm says it will add more guardrails "as an extra precaution" and temporarily limit chatbots teens can use.

How about they just stop with AI chatbots all together.

Too many people rely on them. You would be stranding random people now.

[–] newthrowaway20@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Oh no! How did they ever manage before?

When you take away the thing it is even worse than not having it

It'd probably be for the best in the long run. It's already proven to be a dangerous addition.

Zuck wouldn't know what the right thing to do was if it slapped him in the face.

I find it wild this was even in the conversation or debatable... Who released this and didn't put controls regarding the suicide topic and immediately direct whoever, regardless of age to something not artificial. A Hotline, family etc... anything but engage with that topic.

Oh good, I'm sure that will make things a lot better... I honestly feel most of the world would be better off without AI...

[–] pageflight@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah, I didn't think we're going to solve "AI has no inherent ethics" by catching all the corner cases. That's basically how the legal system evolved and that's with a majority of people trying to be nice.

AI invented bad parenting, we need to destroy AI to solve all problems

Is meta going to face any consequences? Probably not. Seems unjust.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Yep, so now the chatbots will only talk about it once the conversation goes on long enough. Great plan. Love that they just slap fixes on that don't work without fixing the underlying thing (hint: they can't, this is all emergent and they have no idea how it actually works)
