Fuck AI

"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.

It appears you were already blocked six month ago due to "vote manipulation".

I get that you don't like Image AI communities, but why not just block these communities?

Different instances. Left .today because I was seeing hexbear posts. Left .world because I asked the admins about the banner supporting horrible people's salary and they said they support those people's salary.

I've never automated any voting, I just downvote when I see something I don't like.

What's vote manipulation? I imagine he didn't take a burlap sack full of votes and buried it in the middle of a forest.

The nutjob mod on those communities claims anyone downvoting without commenting or being a member of his slop communities is manipulating votes.

The block community option on the pages go away, so you have to block them on the back end.

Tedious and annoying.

I do, I also block the users, but not before downvoting.

Hope you didn’t got banned for just downvoting.

[–] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 10 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I hope I did and I hope they continue to make it easier to avoid slop in the feed going forward.

Odds are very high you were banned for down voting, as the mod has automated the process to ban anyone who down votes but doesn't comment and applies the ban to all their shitty AI communities.

that's not really useful for community building. it just clogs up the logs of your instance mods, while allowing their instance to auto-block.

I don't want them to build a community, I don't want to build a community with them in it. Fuck AI.

[–] lime@feddit.nu -2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

yeah but they're gonna do it no matter what you think.

[–] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 1 points 2 hours ago

Lol

That would require enough people actually like them to make their efforts worth it, which has yet to be seen.
