  • That is such a dishonest take. Per the article

    "For example, last year California passed a law that requires health care providers to disclose when they have used generative AI to communicate clinical information to patients. In 2021, New York passed the first law in the United States requiring employers to conduct bias audits of AI tools used for employment decisions. California also passed a law that will go into effect in 2026 which requires developers of generative AI models to share detailed documentation on its websites about the data it used to develop these models, an extremely consequential law as AI companies are currently hiding their exploitation of copyrighted materials in order to create these models, as we have shown repeatedly. "

    It doesn’t mention it, but it would also prevent any environmental regulation around the data center that guzzle water and consume electricity like disinformation black holes.

    Its not about personal use, it is about regulating corpos




  • Apologies if I come off as upset, I am not. I don’t feel I was even a target of those comments. I was just pointing out that some of those folks might have come out swinging due to the perceived tone of the original comment, and calling other people names does not help that situation. My real hope was that they would be a little more careful with their words since tone hard to convey in text, and using words associated with people that more often then not are not acting in good faith can convey either aggressiveness or just outright trolling


  • Use of the word “trigger” is the key part here. It is most often used by right wingers just trying to piss people off (“triggering the libs”). Starting off with that and then commenting on how people are “sanctimonious” for expressing valid opinions are what tell me you were less than open to an actual conversation. It has nothing to do do with the post itself (though I tend to agree she really doesn’t say anything of value) and more to do with how you are going about interacting with people like a right wing troll. Hell even in this comment you end with a common right wing dismissive phrase (virtue signalling) that, again, tells other people you don’t want a conversation


  • Now look at the comments in here, a bunch of sanctimonious people with too much appreciation for their own thoughts and a lack of any semblance of basic behaviour.

    Is there a word for a sentence that does the same thing it describes?

    There is no reason to denigrate people because they don’t agree with you or don’t like the nature of LLMs/generative algorithms. It really feels like you came looking for a fight (“I know the title will trigger people”) and trying to dismiss folks that point out this does not fix the fundamental problems with LLMs













  • Beehaw is really my only social media unless you count personal discord servers, so not a result of doom scrolling in my case. I have just seen what hyper capitalism does to new tech (looking at you, AI). But yeah, good point, in this case labor displacement is more of a concern. The article mentions requiring servers still, so that is what brought to mind the Amazon grocery stores.


  • Gods, I wish we lived in the kind of society where when I see something like robot servers I could simply say, “That is cool.” Unfortunately thanks to the capitalist hellscape we are in, my reaction is “How are they going to exploit people to make this work.” Like how the Amazon grab and go grocery stores turned out to be just people being paid super low wages
