We literally have this. We call it the “shoulder”.

Can you not just fully disabled the integrated? (At the cost of higher power usage.)

They’re doing the ai murderbot episodes too.

There is no effective way to ban a person. As long as that remains true, moderation tools don’t really matter.

Israel alone is putting $760 million into propaganda. Lemmy may not be big, but it’s worth 0.2% of that budget.

And that’s just Israel.

Yes, because Fox News is known for their facts. (No one mention the court case.)

I notice you didn’t answer the question.

You should assume everything you post here is being used to train LLMs. It doesn’t take an admin to do so. It takes anyonr who feels like looking. And there’s already evidence that we’re being scraped.

I lean into it intentionally sometimes. Some of those things sponsor the things I like, and I want those things to be keep happening, so I’ll buy some Pagoda egg rolls that I never would have touched otherwise.

That doesn’t work with the really intrusive ads though.

I bet it’s great if your business is Spirit Halloween.

just have a magic 8ball sitting on your desk

I kind of like this, with some modification. It’s a magic 8 ball of Stack Overflow answers. It’ll try to find the one you need. If it’s too hard to find that or if it doesn’t exist, it’s just gonna find the one that sounds good.

yeah, it gives you the answer it thinks you want based on your prompts.

I’d be interested to see what prompts they used to, uh, prompt this response.

I wouldn’t say “pure” theatre. I think the demands were serious while also being a common sense PR move that would also motivate (or not demotivate) their employees.

But they were supposed to just be easy to agree to. “Okay, yeah, we’ll have an overseer on the murder bots, and we won’t use it to spy on Americans.” Even with an optional wink wink nudge nudge, it still mostly works for Anthropic’s PR.

It was supposed to be a layup, and the administration airballed it.

Which was revealed when Anthropic made their very simple demands and the administration threw a tantrum.

1. No fully autonomous murder; a human must make the final decision.

2. No domestic mass surveillance.

Pretty simple demands that should have been easy to agree to.

Then you’re waiting forever on vulnerability patches. Especially if there are layers, and each layer waits to update.

Larger standard libraries do a lot. It’s a lot harder to sneak vulnerabilities into the basic C# or Java or C++ libraries than it is to add a vulnerability to something one dude maintains in the javascript ecosystem.

And since javascript libraries tend to be so small and focused, it’s become standard practice for even other libraries to pull in as many of those as they want.

And it stacks. Your libraries pull in other libraries which can pull in their own libraries. I had a project recently where I had maybe a dozen direct dependencies and they ended up pulling in 1,311 total libraries, largely all maintained by different people.

In a more sane ecosystem like C#, all the basics like string manipulation, email, or logging have libraries provided by Microsoft that have oversight when they’re changed. There can be better, third-party libraries for these things (log4net is pretty great), but they have to compete with their reputation and value over the standard library, which tends to be a high bar. And libraries made on top of that system are generally pulling all those same, certified standard libraries. So you pull in 3 libraries and only one of those pulls in another third party single library. And you end up with 4 total third party libraries.

Javascript just doesn’t really have a certified standard library.

(This certified standard library doesn’t have to be proprietary. Microsoft has made C# open source, and Linus Torvalds with the Linux Kernel Organization holds ultimate responsibility for the Linux kernel.)

It’s mostly half a dozen very loud people who have a particular agenda.

The previously defederated instance has 165 total accounts, lifetime.

You can tell by how this comment section is completely whitewashed. Absolutely no controversy here, and nothing at all critical of admins.

I clicked on the very first one. It does not advocate violence or murder.

I don’t know what this list is supposed to be, but it’s not the evidence it was labeled as.

Defined as everyone other than you?
