Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

Do techbros that complain on the Fediverse about people hating on AI realize it isn't just here that hates AI? (sopuli.xyz)

Everyone pretty much hates it, its just here is one of the few places online where money and stupidity can't be waved around frantically to hide that.

The majority user base in the comments are anti-ai. But every other week or so I find myself having to block some "ai_porn" this or that community. I dont think I've seen a lot of engagement with those communities (like, I think its just the creator trying to make it happen).

Are they just unaffiliated gooners? Is it techbros trying to normalize it by porn exposure? I dont know, I just know I've had to block several communities for being AI and it's weird.

There's programs that generate porn just by describing it, and y'all are wondering if the interest in that is made-up?

You're actively blocking exposure to communities that are using AI, and then noticing "the majority userbase seems to be anti-AI."

Do you think perhaps there's a lot of people out there who are not anti-AI, but that you're not seeing them because you've found an anti-AI bubble you're more comfortable in?

Let's ask some research, then.

Seems pretty unpopular.

Instead of pretending to teach someone about social media bubbles, go and find your counter point yourself. There should be plenty of references you can find on the fediverse to refute their point.

He literally said he was filtering out AI-positive communities.

You took one piece of information and made assumptions off of it. Instead of doing that, you could just prove that there are ai positive communities. I would argue that AI porn communities aren't an example of AI positivity. The point of those communities is to create pornography that was unable to be created before. I dont think they much care about the tools.

Go ahead and prove us wrong smart guy. You took the trouble to argue this point multiple times in this thread but have no proof of your own position.
