Maybe you want to edit this so there’s a direct link? Like putting in !unlockthread@lemm.ee in the text somewhere (or whatever the link format is)?

It’s about the same in terms of what it does (which means it hallucinates just as strongly and can’t be trusted). It just takes less to do it. MUCH less.

I can’t. I share the same opinion.

If I see evidence of AI in any space on a page (aside, obviously, from one that is analyzing AI) I assume that the page has nothing worth reading.

I doubt I will miss anything of value by this assumption.

So I’m with you. Putting AI “art” on an article is just a sign of dishonesty and taints the writing as well.

Grand Theft Autocorrect has no feelings to hurt. Has no nervous system to signal pain. Spicy Madlibs is less self-aware than an ant.

Kalimbas are the greatest little instrument for just plinking around and having fun musical explorations! You can sit down and learn hard … or you can just play around and see what cool little riffs you can come up with in an almost trance-like state.

Warning! You got a cheap kalimba. That’s how I started. #5 was … ah … significantly more expensive…

I’m not even a pro musician (though it was a career option I’d considered after high school). I dabble.

And I’ll be utterly and thoroughly railed by a rusty railroad spike before I let some soulless sociopath tells me that I don’t enjoy making music!

“As a black woman …”

It just lacks machines that think. Which we do too, but the things they’re trying to push as thinking are already causing extreme damage to our culture …

… time for the Butlerian Jihad before things get so bad you need an existential war to fix them.

I highlighted the parts you missed. You might want to clean your screen so you can see all the words before responding.

You seem nice.

Huh. I’d never have guessed that.

I thought art was making cthonic horror for hands.

Now compare Lemmy, a phone, or the Internet to “a machine in the likeness of a human mind”.

Dune is full of machines. It just lacks machines that think. Which we do too, but the things they’re trying to push as thinking are already causing extreme damage to our culture, so … time for the Butlerian Jihad before things get so bad you need an existential war to fix them.

Google’s evil was more in the background; you had to be paying attention to find it until they decided that they were powerful enough to be openly evil.

This is the danger of a “quick look”. It makes you look ridiculous when you talk about it later.

You don’t.

Most people lack empathy for self-inflicted injury, and the problem is that the perception of what is self-inflicted varies from person to person.

See, personally, I think anybody on any corporate social media verges on the self-inflicted by now, given that it’s been common knowledge for years that Facebook and Google and and and are completely and utterly unhinged in their lack of humanity.

Have you heard of the Butlerian Jihad?

My vision isn’t quite as extreme.

Quite.

Do you think we should still harvest fields by hands instead of using tractors?

That is absolutely not the issue and you know it. How do I know you know it? Because you’re not a moron, which leaves only “disingenuous”.

Your “harvest field by hands” thing isn’t even remotely close to the issue. AI isn’t a tractor making tilling, seeding, harvesting, etc. etc. etc. easier. AI is stealing, say, the wheat from other people’s farms and putting it into your silo and making bread with it.

Yes. Open source. So you give a few hundred lines of material so that people can steal millions to billions of lines of it.

A perfect exchange that is.

I think people just hate ai.

And yet you don’t take the further step of asking why people “just hate ai”.
