"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

A Discord community for gay gamers is in disarray after one of its moderators and an executive at Anthropic forced the company’s AI chatbot on the Discord, despite protests from members.

Users voted to restrict Anthropic's Claude to its own channel, but Jason Clinton, Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and a moderator in the Discord, overrode them. According to members of this Discord community who spoke with 404 Media on the condition of anonymity, the Discord that was once vibrant is now a ghost town. They blame the chatbot and Clinton’s behavior following its launch.

Not really, no. The feature set is pretty much impossible to provide profitably, or to self-host for most users, hence all of the services always enshittifying and/or shutting down.

Simple text chat is perfectly achievable. Real time video calls, sure, somewhat. Sending large files to eachother? Cloud-hosted chat history going back to the beginning of time? Not feasible without pretty significant monthly subscription costs. Can't grow the user base if you charge a subscription to all your users.

Anyways, Mattermost and Matrix kinda sorta work, until they don't work anymore.
