I've always meant to do this, but after hearing about the AI thing I want to get it done. Is there no free solution? I have too much history to clear manually.

EDIT: PowerDeleteSuite did the trick, thanks!

I used Power Delete Suite about a month or so ago, it's foss and it worked great.

I set it to delete each comment, but in case Reddit tries to "roll back" my deletes I also set it to manually edit and save every comment to something (ex. "comment removed"), before doing the delete. It took a good hour to get through all my comments.

I also decided not to delete my 15yo account. My logic here was perhaps that will be a protection from Reddit resurrecting my comments or account in some way, since it's still an active account. It just sits there empty now.

Unfortunately, they still have your comments saved in a database somewhere for LLMs to work on.

Why are we calling them AI when they aren't? Why is AGI now what we've been calling AI all this time? Is it all just marketing and did "news" outlets just go with it because it was easier?

[–] june@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (5 children)

It’s because language evolves. LLMs aren’t the traditional AI, but we’ve been referring to things like NPCs in video games as AI and all sorts of other decision making trees as AI for so long that we’ve muddied the waters as to the term’s meaning that we needed to get specific with AGI to denote that it would be something different.

It annoys me too, but better to get on board than rail against the current of the ocean.

That's literally worse than Hitler. 🤪😄

Point good.

[–] june@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

lol. I don’t think everyone see what you’re doing here but I do 😂

[–] DAMunzy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's ok. I do it for myself always. The points are made up just like American dollars.

Money isn't real, invest in the only stable currency: memes

~~ok maybe it's not any more stable but it is funnier~~
